There's a preshow that started at 6:30 EST that combined Rel Howrey interviewing celebs with all of the best song performances. The official show starts at 8 EST.

Yup I turned on the pre show after the White Sox game ended. I am all about awkward banter between well dressed artists. Cringy entertainment at its finest.

It sucks cus it's just then fawning over photos of the celebs this year, and not actually a red carpet

Yeah, I am glad that at least they’ve figured out a way to air the musical performances though.

They eventually got to talking to a few people....but I don't think they tracked down anyone for the first half hour.

For a second when he popped on screen I thought to myself “Man, David Duchovny really let himself go during covid”

then once I realized who it actually was my thought change to “Man, Trent Reznor looks weird in a suit”.

Jeepers..he does kinda look like Duchovny

I watched Sweeney Todd for the first time. I like Tim Burton but generally am not a fan of movies that come from musicals because I don't really like singing in movies.
All I could think of at the end was if they didn't have to sing, he would have gotten the job taken care of much sooner. And would have prevented some other unfortunate outcomes.

The French Screenwriter for The Father kinda took up all the acceptance speech time from his co-screenwriter, didn’t he?

I'm sensing they aren't implementing a time limit this year.

Fuck, I hope that’s not the case, this thing will go on for like 10 hours.

Can't argue with any of the winners so far (happy The Father was able to take home screenplay!) but pretty sus about Stephen Soderberg's choice to not use clips at this year's ceremony. I get that it makes it more of a human element, and celebration of the person more than the film, but it's not very entertaining.

They're also blasting through the awards, and cut a lot of the fat, so I think it'll balance out.

never than I can remember. My SO thought that maybe they did it so they could give Chadwick Boseman a nice send off but with Hopkins winning and no acceptance speech the whole thing was pretty anticlimactic.
