Hollywood’s Super Bowl for movie buffs is upon us.
And you won’t want to miss the 2020 Oscars on Feb. 9, which will see the year’s hottest stars and most gifted creatives go head-to-head for a shot at entertainment’s most coveted gold trophy: an Academy Award.
The live ceremony at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Calif., will once again forgo a traditional host this year following last year’s controversy with comedian Kevin Hart, who ultimately stepped down. The honors will instead boast a slew of megastars lined up to announce, as well as a cannon of A-list musicians who will perform songs throughout the night, including Billie Eilish, Sir Elton John, Randy Newman and Questlove.
Leading the 2020 nominations is “Joker” starring Joaquin Phoenix, 45, which made history with 11 nods from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, making it the most nominated “comic book movie” in Oscars history. Three other acclaimed films, “The Irishman,” “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood” and “1917” all came in a close second with 10 nominations each.
Whether you’re watching for the acceptance speeches or the highly anticipated red-carpet looks, here’s everything you need to know to watch this year’s Oscars like a pro.

For what CONCEIVABLE reason would I waste time watching some moronic multi-millionaire pretender lecture me about the benefits of Communism and their hatred of my country?
Bonus: You get perverts lecturing you about “gender” and carbon footprint whales lecturing you about “climate”!
Especially when all those stinking pro-communist zealots made tens of millions under our beautiful CAPITALIST system. That’s what galls me to no end. Just like that miserable Sanders.
The Academy Awards are today? I thought they had been discontinued.
ITS INTERESTING TO SEE THE TOLL DRUGS ARE TAKING ON THEM. SOME OF THE OSCAR RECIPIENTS HAVE AGED CONSIDERABLY SINCE LAST YEAR. ITS EASY TO SPOT THE COKEHEADS.
Little Women will probably win because it stars “woke va-jay-jays”.
Amen 21. Who would watch that garbage?
Why?????
You gotta be kidding!
These Oscars threads on FR have been used for YEARS to make fun of the awards. Sorry if some of you can’t grasp that.
Eminem rocks the house. Randy Neuman fun to see. Maya Rudolph and Kristen Wiig funny. Steve Martin, Chris Rock funny in nonhost duo monologue.
Tape and fast forward if you are a movie fan.
Biggest commission No Safe Spaces not nominated for documentary
Ferrell and JL Dreyfus funny/
Biggest Omission
Thank you for the warning.
And before you can say “Bong Joon-ho” they’re over ...
Nice that a non-Hollywood movie won.
