I haven't seen any of the movies, I don't usually watch the show. I tuned in because I was expecting a trainwreck of political one-upmanship by each winner, but I have to admit that I am impressed by the gracious restraint of the statements being made. They've been intelligent and thoughtful, and strong, the few there have been. All the direct attacks have come from Kimmel's good jokes. Other than that angle, the whole thing has run smoothly without dragging. This is a fine-tuned machine. Ha! Kimmel just tweeted Shitcunt live. And now there are a lot of movies I want to see with my entire face after this.

I've seen Arrival, but that's it. But I really want to see Moonlight, and really don't want to see La La Land.
Now let's see if they had time to add Bill Paxton to the In Memoriam part.

But she did mention him.
Musicals can eat the devil's arse, mate.*
*I grew up on musicals, and other musical influences, and there are some musicals I still hold dear, but overall it's a fucking horrible phenomenon.
Also, really?! Just based on the clips, a goddamn musical winning Best Director seems fucking wrong. This is mostly why I don't watch the momentum-based bullshit from the Academy.

That fuckup at the end was the weirdest thing I've seen on live TV in a while. Whoever's job it is to keep track of those envelopes is totally getting fired.

Now they need to go back and check the envelopes from the years Goodfellas, Pulp Fiction, Fargo, Saving Private Ryan, Traffic, Brokeback Mountain, There Will Be Blood, Black Swan, and Boyhood all lost to inferior movies.

Yeah, that stupid fucking DAMAGED tattoo (in cursive, no less) should have taken that movie out of consideration. But I think voters pick the winners in the technical categories (makeup, special effects, sound design, etc) by throwing darts at a wall of DVD covers.
