Tasteless persistence in making bad jokes about RDJ's past

Tasteless persistence in making bad jokes about RDJ's past

At least RDJ's God-level charisma overpowered them

[TechnicolorAcid]

Oh thank god his monologue ended.

[therewillbeblus]

Yeah, I'm usually much more charitable to Kimmel than most here and elsewhere, but man that was just rugged, extremely self-conscious vom - maybe he'll actually turn it down again next year

Knowing Kimmel, he won’t. But at least Da’Vine Joy Randolph’s speech was good, like really good.

Academy just eliminating clips of the nominees altogether now, huh? The degree to which they hate the actual movies always continues to surprise me.

They brought them back.

[Computer Raheem]

Congrats to The Boy and the Heron; can't wait for Phil Lord to lose his shit on Twitter

[Computer Raheem]

Gonna leave this on standby

[therewillbeblus]

Well now I want a sitcom with David Alan Grier, Catherine O’Hara, and Michael Keaton..

Get this on Twitter and your wish will be commanded

[TechnicolorAcid]

Double drat.

[therewillbeblus]

Not on Twitter, feel free to steal it if you share the crave

[therewillbeblus]

Makeup in particular is promising for Stone..

[TechnicolorAcid]

Triple drat.

[soundchaser]

Should’ve gone with Poor Things to sweep these three techs. Barbie might only be going home with Song tonight.

[therewillbeblus]

I changed some things around at the last minute but thought Barbie would keep one.. I’m also not ruling out a Poor Things BP W, if only to get invested

[therewillbeblus]

Couldn’t tell if Zone’s speech was pro-Israel or saying ‘don’t use the holocaust as an excuse to do what you’re doing’

[Computer Raheem]

Couldn’t tell if Zone’s speech was pro-Israel or saying ‘don’t use the holocaust as an excuse to do what you’re doing’

Given the comments of the producer at the BAFTAs, probably the latter

[TechnicolorAcid]

Great speech Ryan, now where’s the stunt category.

That’s how half of us heard it but half the room heard the opposite, glad to be right
