LOS ANGELES -- The 2025 Oscars are officially here.
Conan O'Brien is hosting the 97th Academy Awards, which honor the best in cinema from the past year.
"Emilia Pérez" leads the field of nominees this year with 13 total Oscar nominations, just one shy of tying the record for most nominations by a single film held by "All About Eve," "Titanic" and "La La Land."
"The Brutalist" and "Wicked" follow closely behind with 10 nominations each, while "A Complete Unknown" and "Conclave" round out the top-nominated films with eight nods apiece.
This year's show will honor the city of Los Angeles, showcasing its resilience in the wake of the wildfires that left at least 29 dead and destroyed thousands of homes.
The Oscars ceremony is live on ABC now and is streaming live on Hulu for the first time.
Follow along below with updates throughout the night, and check out all coverage of the 2025 Oscars here.
1. Tell everyone that you hate Hollywood. 2. Write that you haven’t been to the movies in years. 3. Ensure that it’s clear that you don’t care about the Academy Awards, so much so that you took the time to write about it.
I’m here for the humor.
Gawd. What a mess this will be….
LOL. That’s the Free Republic way.
We are compelled to express our disdain for Hollywood on a thread such as this.
LOL. I’ll be lurking!
I will post a prayer that Hollywood experiences a massive shift of sorts in coming years — that movies be artistically glorious yet connectible, and less vile in their worldview.
What’s in the gift bags?
Yawn.
The opening where they honored Che Guevara with the trans choir was disgraceful.
Take bets now: How many times will Trump be bashed? I predict 84 times.

Of about 8.0 on The Richter Scale.
The Girl With The Needle.

Especially since Che would have had any trannies shot.
‘ What’s in the gift bags?’
Moisturizer made from aborted fetuses, a copy of the communist manifesto, and Donald Trump’s tax returns for the last 24 years.
Bad night- I have to wash the car and play the game “Dump Liberals”.
HA!!
Well done.👍
‘ Especially since Che would have had any trannies shot.’
Che loved female penises.
Her (I think she was a she) account is still active but hasn't posted here in nearly 20 years.
I thought it started at 8 PM Eastern Time...Wrong...It started at 7 PM Eastern Time...
Best Supporting Actor...Kieran Culkin...No...Jeremy Strong did not win the award...For the Trump movie...
Coming up...A segment on James Bond films...
Does “I’ve never even heard of these actors” count as well?
😉
