Awards Season 2022

[Apperson]

Yay, they're not stupid! Absolutely deserved for Sarah Polley.

[DarkImbecile]

That was the result I was most pulling for

[Computer Raheem]

That "civil engineering" joke is a perfect example of why Kimmel sucks - it was completely obvious where he was going as soon as he started in on "the road system here in L.A.", but yet, it's just mean-spirited on its face. Sure, sure - it's a joke, but it's just phrased so inartfully that there's nothing there but the stupid insult.

This; it's one thing to poke and prod (given the audience, it's kind of necessary to keep it from being an elitist circlejerk), but it's a whole other can of worms when you're just being spiteful for no reason, as though Kimmel isn't the exact person he's insulting. Praying he's not hosting again next year

[Computer Raheem]

Yay, they're not stupid! Absolutely deserved for Sarah Polley.

Honestly, I was fully expecting her to win, considering this is the only other award the movie was nominated for outside Best Picture; just thankful All Quiet nor Top Gun didn't get it

Yes. So happy the Actors Who Always Vote for Actors Who Do Something Other than Act voting block was big enough to overcome Netflix' All Quiet push.

I love Sarah Polley, and I’m thrilled for her, but I can’t compliment the script. I can, however, appreciate that it won over All Quiet, and that this is really an ‘owed’ Oscar for snubbing her work in Go and Dawn of the Dead

[Finch]

Very happy for Sarah Polley!

[Brian C]

Props to Monica Barbaro for having the good sense to be visibly embarrassed by Kimmel's fake salute to service.

Another example of his "what's even the joke here, exactly?" brand of humor.

[soundchaser]

Shout out to The Carpenters, genuinely one of my favorite bands. This guy gets it.

[Computer Raheem]

The right song won \:D/

[Kracker]

Congrats to Bollywood

[knives]

So glad this one won. Also this speech is the best

[Brian C]

I'll compliment the script! I thought it was profoundly thoughtful and was one of the very rare "issues" films to treat its subject with genuine moral seriousness, instead of superficial outrage and finger-pointing. I'm happy she won, and I hope the film wins Best Pic, too.

This Indian dude singing The Carpenters is fantastic.

[beamish14]

I genuinely had no clue that Greg Jein passed away. His models for 1941 and Buckaroo Banzai are stunning

[brundlefly]

Do not show me a photo of Angelo Badalamenti while making me listen to Lenny Kravitz.

[Kracker]

They left out this year's Best Picture nominee Triangle of Sadness' Charbi Dean who died shortly after the films release

[ryannichols7]

Sarah Polley retroactively winning a career Oscar for her work with Egoyan and the RRR dudes beating Gaga, Rihanna, and Mitski/Byrne are no small feat. my favorite wins so far easily

I didn’t like it very much but I’d take a BP win over half the nominees. Either way, her W is one of the highlights of the night. I’ve loved her ever since I saw Go around the time of its release/over two-thirds of my life. One of my favorite people in the industry

[therewillbeblus]

Most unexpected Film Editing acceptance speech ever.

[Computer Raheem]

An Eric Andre Show editor has won an Oscar; this is the correct timeline

I like how we all have things we for which we want to reward Polley. Stories We Tell is a real piece of work. But also this is the year the Academy awarded the kids from Temple of Doom and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen.

[Computer Raheem]

Ok, Fraser's winning the Oscar

Called it

[Apperson]

Congrats to Fraser, and the most unexpected shut-out of the night for Elvis is now pretty much complete.

[Kracker]

Called it eight months ago. So glad he won over Butler.

[Brian C]

I am not unhappy with this Fraser win, either. I thought The Whale was a difficult film and I'm still not really sure how I feel about it overall, but Fraser was really great even if you ignore all the prosthetics, just a really tender and humane portrayal on his part.
