***Official Oscars Thread***

I've laughed a couple times.

are the writers on strike again?

I don't think the writers ever came back. There are a select few good ones, and that's about it. Should have thrown some CGI in there. That would have made it good

So.......Seth is done singing now?

 

[DistrictCyclone]

I'm done with this. Switching over to the Old Dominion/Hofstra game. WAYNE MORGAN.

I think Melissa McCarthy should host sometime, I find her really funny.

CGI boobs?

 

[gocubs2118]

That was bad and awkward.

Wouldn't. Elbow too pointy.

I get that a lot.

After the Golden Globes I would think the Oscars will at least have to look at Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Tina should have plenty of free time now and unfortunately, Amy probably will too.

I love the boobs song. But I googled it and can't find any boobs.

I think you're doing it wrong... try Bing or something!

they were hilarious.

The Jaws theme to give the people a warning to wrap up their thank you speeches and then just turning the microphone off is classic!

 

[cowgirl836]

Daniel Craig next, please.

No Oscars thread yet? Lincoln will probably win Best Picture but I'm not sure it should.

Doubt it. Argo is the huge Vegas favorite.

Best Pic odds: Argo -450; Lincoln +350; SL PB 15/1; Zero Dk Thirty 33/1, Les Mis, Pi 50/1; Django 75/1; Amour, BOTSW 100/1

Also, don't get the dislike for Zero Dark 30, thought it was awesome to see the lead up to how they got to Bin Laden. Maybe I'm old?

Daniel Day Lewis seems to have Best Actor all but in the bag, as expected.

Best Actor odds: Daniel Day-Lewis -5000 ($50 wins $1); H. Jackman 20/1; B. Cooper 33/1; J. Phoenix 40/1; Denzel 50/1

I figure that Seth McFarlane would have been a better host, but he just seems so unnatural with the way he reads through his scr*pt and his verbal pauses are not helping.

Holy crap, you're alive?

Argo will win it - if not, it's a fraud cause it's won everything else so far.

Doubt it. Argo is the huge Vegas favorite.

That's what I get for not paying attention to any other awards show and just basing my pick on wild speculation. I do think Argo was a better film than Lincoln. I probably also liked Django Unchained more too.

Has your cousin won her oscar yet?

Umm no, since that's like the second to last category.
