Are you not not going to watch the Oscars this year?

[tommy]

I can't believe so many of you guys saw it

[dad]

Actually, you know what, I don't want to be in a conversation where I am defending anything about Air. It looks like shit and everybody involved in it should die

fair assessment.

[VinylGuy]

I saw Air at a packed theatre. It was really bland and boring. Mediocre at best. I did liked the 4.3 aspect ratio and the production design.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

bill hader and ali wong are a pair?

they’ve been a thing for a while.

[dad]

the comedian hosting this year is not funny.

I’m sure they thought he’d be a safe bet to not go full Gervais on the crowd.

boring.

bill hader and ali wong are a pair?

“Succession,” which was up for the most awards on the television side, tied a record (with “Mad Men” and “The X-Files”) for the most wins in the best drama category — the series won for its second and third season in 2020 and 2022. And three of the show’s actors, Kieran Culkin, Sarah Snook and Matthew Macfadyen, took home awards.

“The Bear” and “Only Murders in the Building” were each nominated for five awards — “The Bear” received three and “Only Murders” was left empty-handed.

On the movies side, “Oppenheimer,” which received eight nominations, ended up with five awards, including for the top prize in drama. Cillian Murphy also won in the best actor, drama category and Christopher Nolan won for best director.

“Barbie,” which had the most movie nominations, only ended up with two awards — but it did beat out “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” in the new cinematic and box office achievement category..

Cillian and the bear and cast getting recognised for being the best.
Good shouts from the globes.

Imagine Oppenheimer and Cillian will be favorites to win at the Oscars as well.
