Hey! I remember that TED talk! I didn't realize that "lollipop moment" was a thing!

I mean, I haven't seen it since it came out, and while I hated it then, I think it's slowly fermented in my brain into something a little better. I'll find out when I rewatch it, which I'll probably do eventually.
But dude, twelve years!
Actors whose performance clips I guessed correctly: Felicity Jones, Emma Stone, Meryl Streep, Laura Dern, Eddie Redmayne. I just wish that Benedict Cumberbatch's Oscar clip was that one long take of his character butchering a joke.
Ugh, that's so sad. Hopefully she had the foresight to plug her ears, close her eyes, and say "lalalalalalalalalala" right before Pike's clip began.
Okay, cool, I'll stick with "flows" then, thanks
(Gone Girl spoilers) "So, how does it feel to have your wife back?" That line was literally in the clip. Like, are you fucking kidding me? For fuck's sake. It wasn't even that good of a clip to begin with. If they were gonna spoil the movie, they could have at least picked the clip of her drenching her naked body in…
#ThrowbackMonday: Remember last year, when Sandra Bullock had the worst performance clip ever (it was a literal montage of her breathing and screaming), even though Gravity came with a tearjerking, capital-A Acting scene that was basically just a performance clip served on a platter?
So, which beloved veteran character actor will win his first Oscar next? I'm betting James Cromwell.
Wait, there's somebody else who hates Beasts of the Southern Wild? Heck yeah!
Yo, quick question, how does one pronounce your username? I've always been audiating it as "flows the head", which I've only recently realized is completely wrong.
In a weird kind of way, I'm sort of glad the ceremony slightly sucked this year. It would have been a shame if they wasted a great ceremony on an Oscar season that's jam-packed with controversies. Either way, people would have talked about how the Oscars sucked, even if the ceremony was good.
I was hoping for Boyhood to win for the same reason I hoped for 12 Years a Slave to win—because if they had lost, the backlashes over Birdman and Gravity would never subside.
Yeah, it really is, isn't it?
Okay yeah when I posted that comment I was actually worried I sounded too sarcastic. So for the record, I wasn't being sarcastic; I genuinely find your comments edgy, and I appreciate it
Also, his acceptance speech was adorable.
Patricia Arquette's speech made me cringe. Not because it wasn't a great speech, but because I could actually hear, in that moment, the sound of millions of MRAs tweeting at the same time.
Oh man, it feels so edgy whenever somebody makes fun of Boyhood's dullness. It feels like one of those things that everybody thinks about but isn't supposed to say in public.
Did anybody else think, for just a moment, that maybe, Whiplash would just somehow win Best Picture? It was its three consecutive wins that made me wonder. (These puny hopes were dashed when Imitation Game won Best Adapted Screenplay, obviously.)
But no montage of ass-kicking men, huh? YOU SEXIST LIBTARD FEMINAZIS!
