I am curious to see if PARASITE wins anything.

I am also interested in Best Song Category...Idina Mendel will perform.

Will TOY STORY 4 win?

Will Rene Z win Best Actress?

I liked PARASITE more than 1917 or JOKER.

[L.A.Justice]

I am sure President Moon would invite people, involved with Parasite, to the presidential house when they return to Korea.

There was no chance that PARASITE people would have said anything political at the podium...

[olesigh]

Let’s have a film about what a united Korea would look like.

[L.A.Justice]

The Last Emperor... Remember? It won the Best Picture Award in 1988. Many Asian actors and actresses were in that movie.

[Mariner]

The highlight of the show was Eminem’s live, and surprise performance.

And the surprise was the dominance of Parasite.

WTF? Anyone seen it?

[olesigh]

yeah and didn’t Joy Luck Club and Crazy Rich Asians win one or two?

[Clemenza]

Was very happy to see Renée Zellweger win Best Actress for “Judy.” An amazingly accurate performance of Judy Garland towards the end of her life, eerily realistic for anyone who knows anything about JG.

Happy to see nothing from the Marvel Universe. The sooner we rid the earth of Marvel films and their devotees, the sooner we can reach the good graces of the Lord.

[olesigh]

Jane Fonda, uuuuuugh!!!

[Halgr]

I stopped paying attention to Hollywood or going to movies when they started bashing TRUMP!!!

[Loud Mime]

I saw Parasite.

As the plot developed I thought it is how the liberals had infected our culture, our courts and our education bureaus. They targeted good people and destroyed them without ever caring for others, all in the quest for fairness.

Seriously, think about Bernie Sanders coaching these people.

The good thing about this movie is that the bad people get punished in the end.

[Borges]

Parasite is terrific.

[scottinoc]

1917 should have won. In my opinion Parasite was just OK.

[scottinoc]

And so species-centric. According to Joaquin Phoenix’s brilliant speech, we should stop asserting the dominance of one country or one gender, or one species. I’m so ashamed to be a white male American human tonight. At least a foreign language film won, so that assuaged some of my guilt.

[L.A.Justice]

J. Phoenix’s speech was too long...However, He didn’t mention President at all.

[L.A.Justice]

yeah and didn’t Joy Luck Club and Crazy Rich Asians win one or two?

And Laura Dern managed to make a short, gracious speech.

She didn't get all political? Good for her.

She doesn't like Trump at all, and the Derns were very well connected in Democratic politics before Bruce went hippie/deadbeat/actor.

[olesigh]

OK Well I likes them LOL I picked them for an Olesigh Oscar

[1Old Pro]

The Oscar people told him he has only 45 seconds. Well that’s more then John Bolton got this week. Lame!

Lame is right, we witnessed a bomb instead of a bombshell, what a loser. He's an actor, use your precious 45 seconds to talk about acting.

[Conserv]

Laura Dern is one of the few I like(Mask, Jurassic Park).

I also love, love Geena Davis(A League of Their Own, Thelma and Louise)...

and the fact that she almost made the Olympics one year as an alternate(Archery).

[EnquiringMind]

Lol! That guy likes to get all dolled up for these events. He loves his dresses!

[fatima]

Never saw him before.:)
