Sunday, February 24, 2019 at 7:30PM

Why Green Book's win made me cringe - Not why you think!
Best Picture Nominee Oscar Tallies: Bohemian Rhapsody: 4 wins; Black Panther, Roma, Green Book: 3 wins each; A Star is Born, Vice, The Favourite, BlacKkKlansman: 1 win each. The last time each Best Picture nominee won an award was 2014 but it's not so common since something usually goes home empty-handed.

Thanks for doing this Nathaniel!
Alright everyone, let's get ready to be pissed off WOOOOOOOO
Can we ever forgive this year oscars?
If Glenn wins, I will forgive anything
Glenn winning will make this whole season worth it.
Rachel wins the red carpet for me, as do Charlize and Michelle Yeoh.
I can’t stop thinking about Rachel’s look though. That’s fashion.
Lady Gaga disappointed me?
I really hope Glenn wins - it’ll be very awkward in that dress if she doesn’t 😂
Meryl wore gold back in 2012 and ended up winning. Glenn is wearing gold tonight. Let’s hope gold also ends up being her lucky color. :)
Great idea to have these three ladies open the show.
I am ELATED for Regina King!
I was wrong RE: King but I still believe it was close. Now missing BAFTA and SAG becomes less of a stigma. Congratulations Regina!
I said when King won her third Emmy last fall that she essentially had sealed her Oscar win then. A lot of y'all didn't believe me. #ijs
Those Oscar statues made of flowers just remind me of 'Annihilation'.
“Oscars in this category have been awarded since 1981.” Was that shade...?
Now, I could have done with that makeup and hairstyling win being presented in the commercial break. That was a hot mess.
YES RUTH
Yay Regina! Boo ugly red ribbon sets.
The lack of host is ... notable. Have a feeling ratings are gonna be low.
Can Black Panther win best picture? Its winning a lot
No but it could win all its tech noms. That would be something.
#oscarsoblack
and loving it <3
Queen, Tom Morello, J. Lo....I thought Oscars was supposed to be about movies....sigh.
Someone should give nominees tips on their acceptance speeches....these are horrible. P.S. Black Panther is a mediocre movie at best.
I don’t wanna sound heartless, but do these winners understand that they only get 90 seconds for a speech? So, if you are part of a duo that gets to be on the stage, wouldn’t you have the sense to keep it somewhat short so that your partner/collaborator could say at least SOMETHING, too? Instead of just hogging the entire time up there to make it about yourself. Just sayin’
Cuaron has oscar in three different categories. And probably 4 until the end of the day. Will that be a record?
I agree with Sawyer, this is the ugliest Oscar set in memory!
Some of these speeches are really validating the Academy's previous decision to do them during the commercials. Most are dragging on and on and on.
Where's Simon Cowell when you need him? Jennifer Hudson...that was the longest pitchy flat note I've ever heard.
Why is Serena Williams on stage? Are these the black awards?
Who presented best supporting actress? Was it sam rockwell? I lost it
Yes Lesley, I was puzzled. Her partner was standing there, and he was cut off at the end with just 10 seconds of speech. Now I don’t know if they have an arrangement before the award, but that was a bit obnoxious.
Gil C.: sometimes, they invite remarkable people of other expertise to present, like Michelle Obama
Ugh. Bohemian Rhapsody
Gil C- your racism is showing!
Just more proof that they should combine the two sound categories since Academy voters don't know what it is they are voting for.
The lady from Bohemian Rhapsody looks like Olivia Colman LOL
The sound lady*
I hope Bohemian Rhapsody wins stops there!
This show is so boring! OMG!
I wish Freddy Mercury rises from the grave to give the finger to the academy and the surviving queen members
@Gil C there have been more White people on that stage than any other race, where is the outrage?
See, now THESE three know how to properly divide up their allotted 90 seconds of time so that each person gets a chance to speak and to make a speech. Well done fellas!
Lesley L: but these three didn't know to do a proper movie
This is a snoozefest.
Could The Favourite go 0 for 10??? *gasp*
Nikki...that's some lazy thinking. Black Panther is not an award worthy movie...and why does every other person on stage need to be black? They make up 13% of population...that was my point. Aren't they discriminating against whites? And Serena Williams has nothing to do with movies.
EVERYONE: Let's just ignore Gil C. Maybe he will go away
God Bette Midler looks good.
Lulz...I should go away why? Because you have no counterpoint? Oh look, Keegan Michael Key dropping from ceiling for no reason besides being black... I'm a liberal and movie lover...I just don't like an agenda taking over my favorite awards show.
I hope Allison Janney presents best supporting actor
Oh my god, and what about all these mexican commercials???!
I didn’t realize I missed seeing Queen Latifah on screen?? Now I want to see her in Emma’s role in The Favourite!
Anybody else wishing for the awkward looks they'd pan to if anybody thanked Bryan Singer?
What is an
Award Worthy film? Bohemian Rhapsody? Showing Black people is ruining your show. I guess they should apologize for existing. You are disgusting!
