So the acting categories are pretty much set though I wonder if there will be at least one upset.   3 Billboards and Shape Of Water are the two leading for Best Picture - can Get Out catch them down the stretch?  Guillermo Del Toro is in the lead for Best Director with Jordan Peele behind him.

They're mostly wonderful nominees, so I'm actually invested this year. But I would especially be happy for Get Out, CMBYN, The Shape of Water and yes, Three Billboards, which I thought was excellent. The social media hue and cry over it is so forced.

 

CMBYN and The Florida Project both deserve more than they'll get. Timothee Chalamet should win but they'll give it to Oldman for that lame biopic. Laurie Metcalf should and will win, but otherwise Lady Bird is just another quirky white indie like the 200 others the Oscars have awarded.

Generic but not off base:

Some cheap shots but I did laugh at the "Loheta"

I might tape and then watch if Laurie Metcalf or Allison Janney win. I don't really care about the rest. It will be interesting to see the backlash if Gary Oldman wins as it will yet again show just how hollow the "Me Too" movement is in Hollywood.

The run of show:

 

 

 I’ll watch, but I’m not that invested this year. I did enjoy Get Out (and thought Catherine Keener deserved a supporting nod for the therapy/hypnosis scene alone), but I wasn’t blown away by it.

Ugh! I am so sick of him. He looks ridiculous wearing it. Who the hell invited him to the Oscars?

 

 

So is Ryan only interviewing singers? I haven't seen him interview actors minus MJB.

 

Brad Goreski is so out there but he sure has a nice bod.

I think he looks pretty good (it would be another story if he went shirtless or other such tackiness).

 

It is very Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

 

I love '80s chic and style and entertainment. I feel like we've been stuck in the '80s for a good while now (especially with Trump...) so I will take any good imagery we can get as we hurtle toward hell.

Totally. Disney has too much riding on the American Idol reboot at this point, so they’re like, “Nothing to see here...moving right along...”

 

I love a white tux, but not sure how I feel about this:

    • I grew up in a neighborhood behind the gates and it really wasn't uncommon to have your house unlocked. In my neighborhood there was an armed gate before you enter the neighborhood and you have security patrolling 24/7. One thing that was common when I was in high school were for the kids whose parents were real estate agents to use their houses to throw house parties. It was easy because they were always unlocked.

    • I posted this a few weeks ago but it's worth popping up again as Grant does get asked about return rumors, that Paul Rauch had tried to get the show revived for years but P&G just would not sell it.

    • If those two crazy (and I do mean crazy!) kids can't make it, where's the hope for the rest of us?!

    •   Sonia was on the director rotation at DAYS. On BTG, Sonia had been credited as a producer.  May 23 was her first episode directing BTG.
    • And Kim Zimmer also gave interviews where she admitted to some of her behavior and she apologized for it. I give her credit for admitting her wrongdoing and taking responsibility because other actresses would not have done that.  BTW, I will miss John Payne from your avatar.

        JFP's GL post-1993 may have needed Kim Zimmer to try to salvage the mess that was made of the show (and that turned out to be another disaster), but GL post Zimmer's departure was fantastic. Forbes showed GL didn't need Zimmer as well. I also think Santa Barbara didn't help her ego either since Sydney Penny got the attention, and most SB viewers loathed Zimmer's Jodie character. To be fair, I think a big part of the problem was the writing and the producing, but since Zimmer thinks Rauch is such a genius, that's on her.
    • Forbes also likely got the primetime career Zimmer wanted - never a huge star, admittedly, but a stalwart, able to dip in and out when she saw fit and generally not paying an industry price. Zimmer felt extremely hurt by her lack of success after leaving GL and even more hurt when JFP made it clear GL had moved on from Reva. (JFP, self-sabotaging as ever, soon made it clear that was not actually the case, but with a stronger producer, GL could have genuinely moved on from Reva) That's interesting. I suppose that's what they always say, and there was some precedent as Passions had moved to Direct TV. I guess Passions being canned so fast (faster than many expected, I think) put a big nail in the coffin. And we haven't had any revivals or moves since that have worked, even though Neighbours came close.  I'll try to find that promo.
    • Oh wow - I must see this promo!  Anyone have a copy/link to it? I can't believe they 'accidentally' did that, and if so, I wonder if someone got in trouble haha. Kim did mention in Chapter 1 that the 'suits' dangled some hopeful carrots for a long time, saying they would pitch the show and try and get it on another network or online somehow where it would be cheaper. They even heard rumors that Lifetime would pick it up, so it gave some folks hope for a little while, but sadly nothing came of it. Kim said she was already resolved that it would never go anywhere and she had peace of mind about that shortly after the announcement.
    • Same. I absolutely agree. It's a real shame, too. I had a lot of hope for the Character.
