And the Best Oscar Tweets Go To...
Monday, February 25, 2013 at 4:00PM Previously: Fun Arrivals Moments, Full Winner's List , Seth's Hosting Job , Red Carpet Convo - Best Actress,
I tried to stay off the internet as much as possible last night since I feel like I have missed so many Oscar ceremonies in the past few years from multi-tasking while watching. But I'm playing catch up today and I favorited a dozen plus tweets last night so I wouldn't lose them.
I know not all of you have twitter -- nor am I recommending it wholeheartedly. The weeks of my life lost! The damage to my attention span and ability to spell "you're" and "your" since "ur" works best...
But I didn't want you to miss out on these gems which made me lol during the past 24 hours. Please to enjoy after the jump and comment if you'd like to tweet right back at any of them.
People spent so much pre-Oscars time practicing pronouncing "Quvenzhane" and "Haneke," they totally forgot about "Misérables."

I know Ben Affleck is smart & talented & kind & a loyal husband & father but it's very hard to not think of how good he probably is at sex

lots more after the jump... including my favorite from Jennifer Lawrence's stumble
Anne Hathaway can't believe she didn't think of falling down. #Oscars

Question. If someone drops dead in the first half of the show can they still get into in Memoriam or do they have to wait a whole year?

If I'm ever played of the stage at The Oscars I would prefer the Jurassic Park Suite. K Thanks Bye.

Halle berry is 47. When are we gonna stop saying she looks great and start saying, "what the fuck is going on, this is terrifying."

Why was Anna Karenina eligible for a costume award? They just used Keira Knightley's casual clothes from home #oscars

Given it's French, called Amour and that the lead actress spends half the film in bed, Amour wasn't as raunchy as I'd expected. #oscars

If the First Lady presents Best Picture, does that count as crossing the boundary between Church and State?

When this Oscars ceremony began the couple in Amour had just started dating.

I feel like Meryl called Anne Hathaway last night at midnight and was like "Just shut up & listen to me."

Jennifer Lawrence introducing Adele means maybe we as a species haven't completely failed.

Congratulations to FARGO. Long time coming, guys.

Meryl Streep does not open envelopes, envelopes open for Meryl Streep. #oscars

I want to take this moment to point out historical inaccuracies in #silverliningsplaybook. Robert DeNiro only acted in the '70s. #justsaying
— Ira Deutchman (@nyindieguy) February 25, 2013
And finally a medley of comments regarding that horrifying "Jaws" playoff music...
They should just send out a giant animatronic shark to eat anyone who goes over their allotted time. #Oscars
— Rachel West (@rachel_is_here) February 25, 2013
You guys, Anne Hathaway is going to get the Jaws music, and it's going to be magical.#Oscars

LMAO. Melanie Lynskey just got even more amazing.
Some of those tweets are kind of hilarious! I couldn't stop laughing at the Halle Berry one - mainly because I was thinking along the same lines last night with my roommate. That woman is GORGEOUS...It's sick!
I love when she fell. It was so dramatic! Very Scarlett O'Hara of her.
I don't get all the Anne Hateway hate. Look Jennifer Lawrence wins Best Performance AT the Oscars hands down. But Hateway wins for Best Performance in an ACTUEL movies!...Lawrence doesn't even come close.
"Anne Hathaway can't believe she didn't think of falling down" LOL
I thought I saw someone rush from the front row to help Jennifer Lawrence up, but went back when she was okay. (like Hugh Jackman). Did I really see that?
adri -- that was indeed Hugh Jackman
st.jeans -- i don't get it either but at least some people are funny about it. Anne Hathaway SO deserved that oscar.
Leon McCarthy's was the funniest.
That's what was so effed up about the "Jaws" cutoff music. They wouldn't have DARED do that to the great Daniel Day-Lewis, but some no names visual effects guys talking about their bankrupt studio, yep, get those losers outta there ASAP. That was so shitty what they did to them (and others for that matter).
And now I can't stop thinking about how Ben Affleck is in bed. I'm disgusted and horny at the same time. That beard of his is really doing it for me. Yum.
