  - The bear gag is what Seth McFarlane wishes he had done. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 29, 06:15
- And Brie and Tremblay were so cute during the ceremony. I actually think having him there made it better for her. -- nm - spamlet Feb 29, 06:12
The followup to "dude takes his Aston Martin in the snow" is naturally "dude takes his Aston Martin onto a frozen lake" -- (link) - spamlet Feb 29, 06:06
Happy March 0th, everybody! -- nm - Negabaronic Middle-Aged Forehead Feb 29, 06:00

- The Hateful Eight deserved the sound awards. That bothered me the most. -- nm - Krusty Feb 29, 06:04 7
  - Ennio won for score, that was cool -- nm - budice Feb 29, 06:07 4
    - Yes and deserved. The sound in general was so great that I walked out of the film declaring it the winner. - Krusty Feb 29, 06:09 3
      - [deleted] 2
        
        Thin skinned Hollywood, what a shocker. His film deserved those nominations and maybe a couple of more. - Krusty Feb 29, 06:11 1

  - [deleted] 1
    - I know and it still bothers me. It made me feel like I was in the film more than any other. -- nm - Krusty Feb 29, 06:07
- Same except for Short Animation -- nm - amoxy Feb 29, 06:02 1
  - [deleted]

      - Oh, I can't stand her music, but even by the lowered standards of it, that's GOT to be her worst song. - David Feb 29, 06:34
      - For as important subject as it is, it was like bad teen poetry. -- nm - Reagen Feb 29, 06:30 2
        
        Something tells me the countless victims and survivors would probably disagree with you here. -- nm - Jim Feb 29, 06:32 1
        
        I'm sure they're glad anyone's paying attention to the issue at all. The song itself was tuneless and maudlin, though. - Reagen Feb 29, 08:02
  - [deleted] 1
    - Oh, you're right. People are going to say, "Oh, I know that song. I'll vote for it." - Dark Callisto Feb 29, 06:06

Chris Rock was holding a box of Thin Mints but eating Trefoils. Which confirms my theory... - Mop Feb 28, 22:58 3

- those are the whitest of all GS cookies -- nm - sweet baboo Feb 28, 22:59 1
  - And he wore the whitest of all dinner jackets. What does that tell us? -- nm - Mop Feb 28, 23:03
Huh. There's an actual theory called the paradox of choice which I think explains the Netflix conundrum quite nicely. - Mop Feb 28, 22:41
