It's weird that he was submitted as Supporting Actor. Feels like cheating. He was one of two leads.

Probably wouldn’t have won best actor.

Did he thank Eisenberg I think they don't like each other
He did, and they gave each other kind of a terse hug when he won. I also get the sense they don't quite like each other
they dont like each other yeah.

That’s new. They’re attaching the engraved plate with the winners name and film on the night now. Previously you would just get the statue on the night and they would send the engraved plate out to you in the mail a couple of weeks afterwards with four little screws and you did it yourself. I got to do one :)

It was probably already said upthread but Conan's monologue was perfect.

Don't care too much about the rest of the event.

That "I won't waste time" song was great.

Still need to finish Adrien Brody's speech.

Adrian Brody is in tears up there, pouring his heart out and sincerely thanking those to whom he is indebted. Some of you guys are heartless, and worse hypocritical. Joey, you're just jealous probably. So petty.

If it makes you feel any better, I was very moved by that song from Wicked.

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.

because you don't like seeing an artist passionately caring about his craft and showing gratitude? because he went past the allotted time to continue showing gratitude?
