2024 Academy Awards (Oscars) Red Carpet & Ceremony

[BaileyCatts]

I still need to watch Barbie.

Me too. I don't get the pay channels it's on either.

 

[Vash01]

Past Lives was my favorite of all the best picture films

Going to see this.

 

[Kasey]

Interesting. I think "Anatomy of a Fall" is my favorite of the 8 of the 10 nominees I saw, and both star Sandra Huller.

Sandra Huller was in The Zone of Interest

 

[peibeck]

Best Original Score: "Oppenheimer"

 

[peibeck]

Sandra Huller was in The Zone of Interest

Yes, she is in both movies.

 

[peibeck]

Best Original Song: "What was I Made For?" from "Barbie"

 

[Jay42]

I know What Was I Made For was expected but I was hoping that I'm Just Ken would sneak the win. It would have been fun.

 

[Spikefan]

Maybe we can get a RD from a team in 2025/2026.

 

[Tesla]

Me too. I don't get the pay channels it's on either.

Aw. I’m sorry.

 

[Jay42]

I'm not liking the camera work during the In Memoriam at all.

 

[skatfan]

Time to Say Goodbye - which we’ve been discussing on secret sources -lol!

 

[skatfan]

I'm not liking the camera work during the In Memoriam at all.

Too much going on. Just show the screen and send on singers. Not the time for dance.

 

[Icetalavista]

So……they started this at 7pm ET this year - and it seems like it’s taking even longer. It’s 8:15pm and we still haven’t gotten to Best Supporting Actor yet?.

I'm not liking the camera work during the In Memoriam at all.

Can’t see any of the memorials. Kind of a problem. Very glad ZOI won sound. The sound in this movie said something!

 

[BaileyCatts]

I'm not liking the camera work during the In Memoriam at all.

Me either. I couldn't even see the names. Sometimes I don't even know that person passed until the Memoriam section.

 

[ilovepaydays]

IMHO, Jimmy Kimmel isn’t doing a horrible job of hosting this. It’s just not good. Almost none of the jokes that he’s said have landed - at all.

 

[genevieve]

Best Original Song: "What was I Made For?" from "Barbie"

Boo.

 

[Garden Kitty]

Agree on the In Memoriam. You couldn't see the names and images on the screen since they were so far back to show the dancers.

 

[Icetalavista]

Anyone able to explain the men’s lapel pins?

 

[peibeck]

Best Actor: Cillian Murphy

 

[Garden Kitty]

These individual introductions for the acting awards are annoying. Each nominee is the most brilliant artist and the best person and the kindest and the best looking.

 

[Garden Kitty]

Anyone able to explain the men’s lapel pins?

Featuring an outline of a hand around a black heart, the pins call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war, which Palestinian health authorities say has resulted in 30,000 deaths in Gaza since October.

A group of over 400 celebrities have joined Artists4Ceasefire, a campaign that in late October published a letter urging the US Congress and President Joe Biden to call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and Israel.

In a press statement, Artists4Ceasefire said: “The pin symbolizes collective support for an immediate and permanent cease-fire, the release of all of the hostages and for the urgent delivery of humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza.”

Best Actor: Cillian Murphy

Well deserved. Murphy was also fantastic in Peaky Blinders.

 

[skateycat]

I’m thinking these introductions are the way I’m going to get by if Lily Gladstone doesn’t win. I want people to know her better.

 

[peibeck]

Best Director: Christopher Nolan

 

[Vash01]

I hated the individual intros of the nominated actors. I preferred the old way. Show clips of their roles, and previous year's best actress reads the names and announces the result.

 

[Kasey]

I’m not minding the individual introductions, but not having clips of the performances is strange

 

[skateycat]

Fingers and toes crossed for Lily Gladstone

 

[peibeck]

Best Actress: Emma Stone

 

[ilovepaydays]

Michelle Yeoh looks FABULOUS!

 

[Jay42]

Best Actress: Emma Stone

She does deserve it, but I was really hoping for Lily Gladstone.
