2023 Oscars Thoughts

This Oscars was (in my opinion) the best in a while.

The jokes weren’t that bad! You can never expect everything to land at award shows, but oftentimes the entire show is downright painful (shoutout to Amy Schumer). Overall, Jimmy Kimmel did a good job!!

The lovely birthday tribute to James Martin of An Irish Goodbye was one of my absolute favorite moments, how sweet was that.

I can’t remember if they’ve done this in past years, but regardless, the individual shoutouts to each Best Picture nomination was really nice to see.

This goes without saying, but all of the nominees and winners this year were absolutely wonderful and totally deserving. It made me really happy to see all of them recognized (despite a few snubs).

The reduced play off music! I was really happy to see they dialed it back compared to some of the other shows. Don’t get me wrong it’s always a little awkward and disappointing to see, but when award shows are playing off their biggest winners it’s downright embarrassing. At least the Oscars aren’t doing that too.

JENNYY!!! Her death absolutely DEVASTATED me so seeing her on stage was very healing<3

The performances were great! Naatu Naatu from RRR was really fun, Hold My Hand from Top Gun: Maverick was heartfelt, This Is A Life from Everything Everywhere All At Once had great visuals, and Lift Me Up from Black Panther was beautiful.

The speeches were heartfelt! They often are, but these really struck a chord.

The fashion was gorgeous too! Some favorites were Cara Delevingne, Jessica Chastain, and Lady Gaga.

All of my predictions were correct except one (director)! And they were who I was rooting for anyways so that was awesome.

Finally, this has been said many times before, but it’s been beyond delightful to see underappreciated older actors who’ve been in the industry for a long time finally having their well deserved moments. I don’t think I’ve ever been quite so happy to see anyone win an award before. I’m over the moon for Ke Huy Quan, Jamie Lee Curtis, Brendan Fraser, and Michelle Yeoh.

Edit: Just wanted to add this because I think it’s kinda funny but I was fully prepared to watch this muted and just turn the volume on for the speeches and people I like. I had the remote on hand and everything.

Ready for tomorrow's Academy Awards? Here's everything you need to know and see before tomorrow's ceremony!

[velvet4510]

Predicting right now that Cillian Murphy and Lily Gladstone will win Best Actor and Actress at this year’s Oscars.

[pinkeoni]

Okay here are my predictions, does not reflect personal preferences

[mort-the-destroyer]

I had a very vivid dream that Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio won best animated feature at the Oscar’s.

In the dream a lot of people were hoping it would be Puss in Boots but most people were happy with the choice. Most of all people said it was nice for the award to not be automatically be handed to Disney/Pixar.

A lot of people claimed that the movie wasn’t popular enough to win and others claimed it was antifa propaganda.

Who knows maybe that’s what’ll happen.

Also for some reason people kept talking about how there were no hood hosts anymore and that hosts should be more ridiculous. Particularly talking about Seth McFarland when he hosted, but that’s likely just because I loved that performance and I missed stuff like that.

[rivertalesien]

Some Oscar predictions for fun: in bold is what I think the Academy will pick. In italics is what I'd pick. If I leave italics off, I have no opinion or I don't think any of the nominees were that great. If I cross them out, I'm wondering why they were mentioned in the first place (Top Gun? Avatar? Really?).

Reblogged with the actual winners.

The only big surprise was Jamie Lee Curtis, but I guess they just had to give it to a white chick instead of Angela Bassett who has been shut out of a win for like, 30 years.

And Jimmy Kimmel can keep his day job. The Will Smith jokes were tasteless and too much tonight underlined all the racist/anti-Black sentiment out there (wasn't helped by that Entertainment Weekly set of anonymous interviews this past week).

But EEAAO making a clean sweep? Outstanding.

[whoiskt]

My oscars predictions this year is Everything Everywhere All at Once sweep. At least for best picture/best actress/best supporting actress (Stephanie Hsu imo, but maybe Jamie Lee Curtis?)/best director/best screenplay/best editing.

If Cate Blanchett wins Best actress I'll just go kill myself. No offense to her but I was not impressed by Tár and if it wins any awards I'm done.

The only performance I've actually seen for the lead actor is Colin Farrell in The Banshees of Inisherin, so I can't say much but I think they'll probably give it to Brendan Fraser. The Whale wasn't good enough to get nominated itself but I bet the idea of a Comeback King is enough to give it to someone else.

Guillermo de Toro's Pinocchio for best animated feature.

[destinyc1020]

Definitely need to watch Everything Everywhere, one of the most original and heartfelt films of the year. Boiled down, even through the strange, it’s a strong family and love story. This is what it looks like to take chances on new emerging voices. Michelle Yeoh is amazing and deserves all her flowers finally after the years of work she’s done. And we get to see a rising star in Stephanie Hsu and the returned of Ke Huy Quan, he’s one of the front runners for supporting actor. The movie will get nominated for Best Picture.

Well alright...

Looks like "Everything Everywhere All At Once" is another movie I need to check out before late January then lol! 😂

I love Michelle Yeoh! She's such a great actress!

I can DEFINITELY see this one getting nominated for "Best PIcture". In fact, I think it will win lol... 👀
