What Do You Think of the 2015 Oscars?

[Tim Redd]

Did you agree or disagree with the winners in the various categories: best film, best actor, best supporting actor best script, best music, etc.

[Creative Destruction]

i don't even know who the winners were.

It made getting to and from work harder and they made business really slow at the restaurant. On top of that, you had all these people coming in saying "I work for Jimmy Kimmel, can I use the bathroom?"
Plus, I have never seen so many police cars and security outside a protest.

It's not important.
It's merely another mediatic waste of time. Although I'm glad there was a speech about gender equality :)

Thank god, I don't give a shit. Art isn't a competition and the product of it is his self reward. For what is of such bourgeois ceremonies, I clearly dislike it, and if a millionaire actor deserve a price more than the actual winner, the proof still is in the movie, not on who's shelf the trophy reside.

As years past, I take more time to see old movies than the news. Birdman this year seem the more applaud one. It is nice to see the longs takes, the subject is good, it's just irritating that it is always put in the point of view of rich people. I know that are a litterature reward for the best populist book (Le prix Eugène Dabit du roman populiste), there should be one to for the movies too!

The Oscars are perhaps one of the greatest displays of hypocritical elitism in film around. The term Oscar Bait exists for a reason, and that reason is that winning an award at the Oscars is less about making movies that appeal to people than making movies that follow a formula basically meant to mark off stuff on a checklist of tropes the review board likes. In essence, it's no better than the "lowest common denominator blockbusters" they claim to despise, it's just that the formula is meant for a bunch of stuffy ivory tower academics rather than joe schmoe.

you guys sound so much fun irl wow


I've been meaning to watch Grand Hotel Budapest for so long. I'm glad it won 4(?) Oscars, which means theaters will be displaying it until the end of times

[motion denied]

Granted i'm an utter pleb but no one will convince that Birdman and Boyhood are worth a fart.

i seriously didn't know who won or who was nominated. just that patricia arquette made a really dumb comment in the post-award presser.

Grand Hotel Budapest was a great flick. i enjoyed it a lot.. better than other Wes Anderson films.

Boyhood made me homesick... I had to stop watching it about halfway through.
