[WarDamnVols]

and that's 3 for Whiplash..haven't seen that one yet

it's really good. Was in my top 5 of last year.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Edward Snowden is not here for some treason.

Well played NPH.

What happened to Billy Costigans thread?

 

[Boston Vol]

John Legend, damn

 

[WarDamnVols]

John Legend, damn

He's so good.

With the exception of the Ferguson reference, "Glory" is a dang good song.

Rap portion didn't fit and the Ferguson reference was over the top. Legend can sing.

2 for Birdman...I've always underestimated Michael Keaton..I didn't think he was a good fit for Batman..I thought he was miscast in Beetlejuice..and I thought he was washed up and doing small roles like in Need For Speed..I guess I struck out three times

 

[WarDamnVols]

everything is falling apart :banghead2:

at least Birdman will probably win Best Pic though!

He will always be Mr.Mom.

 

[VolnJC]

I haven't seen Birdman..is it the same premise as The Wrestler?

 

[VolnJC]

He will always be Mr.Mom.

I really liked that one..also Night Shift with Henry Winkler and Gung Ho

 

[VolnJC]

3 for Birdman..looks like it may be the big winner tonight

 

[WarDamnVols]

Poor Linklater. Sorry about those 12 years bud.

 

[VolnJC]

Redmayne for best actor..was that considered an upset?

 

[VolsSportsFan]

As great as Keaton was, Redmayne deserved it.

 

[WarDamnVols]

Redmayne for best actor..was that considered an upset?

no, he was the favorite. it was mainly between him and Keaton, with him (Eddie) having the edge.

Eddie was great, and deserved the award (I picked him to win). kinda wish Keaton had gotten it though.

Moore is a lock for Actress.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Redmayne for best actor..was that considered an upset?

Nope. He won the Golden Globe and BAFTA.

 

[VolnJC]

haha..speaking of Night Shift

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Birdman FTW.

 

[WarDamnVols]

Birdman FTW.

Hell yeah.

Would have been even better had Keaton won as well.

 

[WarDamnVols]

ugh, finished 17 of 24 on my picks. not quite my best work.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I was pretty underwelmed by NPH as host. His running gag about his predictions bombed hard IMHO.

He should stick to the Tonys.

Apparently Sean Penn of all people is getting attacked by the PC police for his green card comment. Apparently Mario Lopez didn't get the point.

 

[mrorange211]

Enjoy your only oscar Interstellar.

I don't get it. Hans Zimmer's score was fantastic.

I guess they don't know they're friends and Penn has been in his movies.

 

[Biopsyman]

He will always be Mr.Mom.

Johnny Dangerously or Night shift
