Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 2 Members Share Posted March 2 SAG-AFTRA 2025 a lovely added value NEW segment about actors who got their starts on soaps. I suspect the hand of Fran Drescher in this idea! Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BetterForgotten Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 BAFTA once again proves it's the best indicator in those acting categories. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted March 3 Administrator Share Posted March 3 Aw, poor Demi. I thought she was great in The Substance. I've been wanting to see Anora for a while - I'm just waiting for it to come on streaming in mid March. Sean Baker winning four Oscars in one night - is this a record? Wasn't really a big fan of Best Costume and Best Cinematography getting "nomination shout out" from the actors presenting. I really hope they don't continue that and decide to rotate it to two other categories. I also didn't like the graphics of the actors' faces in the background - like when Adrien Brody won, Sebastian Stan's Trump was in the background while Adrien was giving his speech. ANOTHER James Bond tribute? We just had one in the last 10 years. Kudos to Cynthia Erivo for her awesome performance. I really love the 7pm EST start time. Thank God, no more 8:30pm EST starts.

Administrator Toups Posted March 3 Administrator Share Posted March 3 Thank you! So it's safe to say, Baker's wins are way more impressive. LOL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 Is Sean Baker the first Oscar winner to follow Libs of Tiktok? Between that and some of the actors involved, I won't be watching Anora, but clearly the Academy ate it up. And this is shameful. Olivia Hussey was in a film that introduced many to Shakespeare and was shown in schools for decades: https://deadline.com/2025/03/oscars-in-memoriam-snubs-michelle-trachtenberg-jim-abrahams-alain-delon-1236307934/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 Another Oscars that ran way too long (nearly 4 hours!), another appalling Memoriam (this time with a spooky choir!), and then Demi Moore gets robbed at gunpoint. I don't care how much the Academy loved Anora...they're sliding into further irrelevance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 (edited) The dislike for horror along with the general Hollywood derision for Demi's past career probably hurt her. A shame. If they wanted a surprise, I wish it had been Kieran Culkin (who I like but he's been very smug this awards season) or Adrien Brody (who has already won and is just extremely difficult for me to watch) or Zoe Saldana (who was getting a career award).

Members Bright Eyes Posted March 3 Author Members Share Posted March 3 I'm happy for Anora's triumphs, but I'm gutted that Demi Moore didn't win. However, adding something positive, I thought Conan O'Brien was a wonderful host, not that I ever doubted him. They absolutely need to get rid of the cringey nominee praising from the presenters. It's always so eye-rolling and suffocating to watch. When they got to the showing clips for the lead categories, it was such a relief. Also, and this is a pet peeve of mine, nominees shouldn't be presenters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 I think what kills me is the Academy Awards used to be about movie stars. It was a glamorous night where regular people could watch their favourite performers in competitive races. There were only a handful of stars in that audience. Now it's a bunch of nameless actors in movies nobody has seen winning awards and going on to work in projects for one of a million streaming platforms that a continually splintered audience never sees. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
