OSCARS 2013

stewart gets paid more than any other actress to behave this way
how cool is that

i'm serious

great to see DA Pennebaker get a nod

xp yeah i'm v pro-kstew she seems chill

D.A. Pennebaker--someone to feel good about.

Hal Needham a+++

BABS!

BAAAABS

jesus when did Richard Robbins die.. :/

I assumed she'd be doing a tribute to snubbed directors.

Dead people come off so well on this show...Sarris was the ultimate fan, so that was nice, ditto Chris Marker.

I'm still confused by the rationale that dictates who gets included and who doesn't. Like, awesome that Sarris was in there, but critics aren't usually recognized in Academy memorials.

Past a certain point of obviousness, I think it's quite arbitrary. People turned up who really surprised me (e.g., George Kuchar last year), and many more have been overlooked.

what is it with all the "chicago" nostalgia??

man they sure are proud of giving that oscar to chicago 10 years ago

Zellweger's new face looks like the hood of a Chevy

WHAT IS WRONG WITH HER FACE?!

It's been bugging me all night. Sorry.

Think I read/heard somewhere that they're lobbied quite a bit for inclusion in the death montage.

zellweger looks v unsteady

Richard Gere had grey inserted into his hair.

Lobbied for Zellweger?

Queen Latifah should push them all off the stage & drop the mic

I loved Life of Pi.

so in the year that celebrates music, two of the year's own song nominees don't even get performed on the show?

so, how bad has Seth McFarlane been so far?

as bad as expected muliplied by worse

Scarjo must not be there. No red carpet interview. No appearance w cast if avengers.

paul epworth!!

Seth has been just enough in check to underscore his badness. Like, if you're going to hire a tasteless hack, let him off his leash to make a total unfettered fool of himself. The same went for Jon Stewart.

i want to kill these unicorn commercials and everyone in them

The only ad we've been getting over and over here tonight is Dragonette singing the Mr. Rogers theme for Target opening in Canada.

Wow, new Bullock movie looks ugh. What happened to her Cuaron joint?

So weird that this host seems designed for this shit and yet somehow found success elsewhere first.

Dustin in character as a dying man.

Chris Terrio wins for fucking over Canada.

they should have gone with Matt Groening

Terrio coke binge y/n

Canada! Creative! Intelligent!

Didn't like it, but like him. So fine.

QT :D

cue jaws music please

tie up your fucking tie ugly man

No Leo.

Be a hilarious trainwreck if QT hosted.

who is laughing at mcfarlane. plz tell me it's canned laughter

Hate these unicorn ads.

tarantino behaving exactly as you'd expect <3

xpost i was just thinking he should definitely host this show!

You know Tim Burton is making an unicorn apocalypse movie for real. With Johnny Depp.

wait did anyone else get the ad for this show which i am not convinced is real called 'splash' in which celebrities like train to jump off a three story high dive? and one of them is ndamukong suh?

oh no it's real!

seething right now that a friend of mine on Twitter is genuinely confounded as to why MacFarlane is offensive ("If Seth McFarlane weren't a white man, no one would care about these jokes").

wait they played off tarantino with 'gone with the wind' soundtrack? did that actually happen?
