terminoob Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I'm just talking about not only the jokes, but the schedule pacing. I mean did we really need Pink performing an American Idol version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow? Oh look! It's Benedict Cumberbatch...what was I complaining about again? I'm complaining about Benedict Cumberbatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terminoob Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 This link further proves my own philosophy about how uptight and stuck in their ways the Academy themselves tend to be. Reading those comments from them pissed me off a lot. Seriously. It's like they don't realize that it takes time, effort, and a lot more talent to make a great animated movie than it does to make a great live-action movie. Design alone is more time consuming, not to mention having to animate every damn facial expression and having to break everything about a character so it animates properly (or in Frozen's case, creating new software just to animate hair [and new lighting software in Monster's U's case]). What if any of the live-action movies were animated? Would people bother seeing them then? Or would Leonardo DiCaprio blowing cocaine up a hooker's ass still be "childish" if it was animated? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clappy Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I mean hell listen to Idina Menzel's singing right now. This song moved me a hell of a lot more than most songs on the radio this past year and more than some movies did. And where did this come from? An animated feature. These Academy guys are clearly underestimating the powerful strides animation has taken over so many decades now. The fact it keeps getting underlooked year in and year out just pisses me off man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully sooner or later we'll get an animated movie winning Best Picture. Maybe it'll even be made by me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clappy Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Hopefully someday. On a side note, Let It Go is the most deserving best song winner in quite some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terminoob Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I think this was my most successful live-tweeting award ceremony yet. I was in top form this year, if I do say so myself. I have no qualms with any of the winners. Time to go cleanse my palette with True Detective, starring Academy Award winner Matthew McConaughey.

Yeah who would have thought five years ago we would be calling Matthew McConaughey an Academy Award winning actor. The man has impressed the hell out of me with his career reformation. He deserves it and I probably will end up seeing Dallas Buyers Club to see both his and Leto's performances in it. Also now I definitely plan to catch 12 Years a Slave very soon.

terminoob Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Hopefully they'll release a new batch of Ghosts of Girlfriends Past and Fool's Gold DVDs that say "Starring Academy Award Winner Matthew McConaughey". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clappy Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Fixed. You typed "Let Her Go" instead of "Let It Go".Yeah I noticed that as soon as I entered this thread again. If Passenger ever won an Academy Award for Let Her Go, hell would have frozen over. Hopefully they'll release a new batch of Ghosts of Girlfriends Past and Fool's Gold DVDs that say "Starring Academy Award Winner Matthew McConaughey".Don't forget Failure to Launch and How To Lose a Guy in Ten Days.

Clappy Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I like how Warner Brothers pretty much spoiled the ending to Gravity in their Sandra Bullock congratulations....oh well, the movie has made enough money already anyway....right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terminoob Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Reddit and tumblr are both really polarizing when it comes to Ellen Degeneres. Reddit really didn't like her, but tumblr just couldn't get enough of her and loved everything (even the pizza thing). Seems about right. I thought she was pretty average. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler did a better job with the Globes, but that's also probably because it's the Globes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellatine Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I liked Ellen, I do agree that the pizza thing was a little bit painful to watch, and ya know, the celebrity selfie was cute and felt refreshing. The awards itself, well I haven't seen all the movies so I can't really judge who deserve what, I did feel a bit confused over some of the clips recompilations and felt some ended on an awkward note...but overall, it was a good Oscar night.

The Lion King Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 http://www.cartoonbrew.com/award-season-focus/definitive-proof-that-academy-voters-are-ignorant-about-animation-96680.html Ughhhhhhhhhhhh Here's some proof that the Academy needs some new blood. I nominate myself. Also, I enjoyed Ellen as a host, and I predicted most of the winners, but there were still some surprises, namely Matthew McConahay's Best Actor win. I thought Leo would get it for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
