How can it be that the consummate liberals in Hollywood be so racist?


It's quite a conundrum. He talked about it with his sorority girl racism joke.

Is this some sort of code? I don't get it.

Isn't there some innocent soul out there you can screw out of five bucks just to stick it to the man? Get on it boy. Don't be such a slacker.

I was wondering how Rock was gonna do it with his monologue. It was fine as far as mixing comedy with a statement. But he kind of played both sides. He said Hollywood was racist while also telling black people there are bigger things to worry about. Like somebody here said, his jokes were lay ups. Funny, but I could have done better.

That it didn't win best practical effects is bizarre.

I don't think I've ever seen a Kohls TV commercial in my life. They decided to put their budget in Oscar advertisement for some reason.

I've tried hard to figure your angle. But all I can come up with is you're a sack of shit.

Weird, huh?

Saw the opening monologue now. It was good. Reason and Ed are a tough crowd. Any other notable things happen?

No.

Jules has already won. From the strong and unattractive women's power glasses worn by many presenters to the VP anti rape PSA.......this is her night.

If Sicario, which had by far the best original score of those nominated, wasn't going to win the least they could do was give it to Ennio who's deserved this award. They did. I'm ok with it.

I haven't seen Rocky or The Martian but I'm absolutely certain they are better than Mad Max.

the best picture had to settle for best animated feature. "inside out" was outstanding and poignant. up there with the best from pixar.
