This year's Oscars feels really rushed up and non entertaining .
Film Oscars 2019
- Thread starter Pogue Mahone
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Rami Malek is a very good actor, but there is no way he should be winning the best actor. First Arab to win the award, i believe, so i guess that ticks the PC box
Olivia Colman, first good win of the evening.
Colman had the best speech by an actor winning an award at the Oscars in some time.
Who was your favorite then?
Olivia Colman win seems a surprise considering how Glenn Close and Lady Gaga seemed like the front runners while Christian Bale should have won it for Vice instead of Rami Malek .
From the looks of it everything feels in place for Spike Lee to win the best director .

Sophie from Peep Show just won an Oscar.
What the hell does that have to do with anything?
Cuaron, Inarritu and Del Toro have won 5 of the last 6 best director awards.
And Green Book wins...
Peter "I pull my dick out on set" Farrelly has a Best Picture Oscar, feck me dead.
Immediately up there with Crash as one of the worst best picture winners ever.
Stopped being entertaining a long while ago. Too much pandering to the left-wing doesn't help either.
Julia Roberts still stunning as ever.
Oscars moved a lot smoother without a host.
Why not? I reckon he got FM down to a t.
I havent seen green book or any of the other picture nominees and I dont watch award shows but feck this guy

Not sure how Bohemian Rhapsody or Black Panther managed to win...well, anything really. I didn’t see much else last year so I’m not sure what should’ve won tbf, but they were both average to poor imo.
It's really not that hard to understand why it won best costume design.

The LA Times film critic agrees with you.
He’s got a point. There wasn’t a single panther either. Misrepresentation I say.
Nice winners.
Lets call Bohemian Rhapsody undisputed champions of the night with four Oscars.

What an immensely underwhelming line-up.
Safe to say the Oscar's are past it.
Which is deserved, in fairness. All 3 are great directors.
I've really never understood the fascination, but then again I think all award shows are a bit naff.
Best thing about Colman winning was the reaction of the other lot.
Well I’m glad that entire month actors and directors give themselves to hand each other various different heavy shapes is finally over.

Green Book winning is actually hilarious. It's a nice reminder just in case anyone was close to taking the Oscars seriously. The win was even more amazing when you consider the campaign lurched from one controversy to the next. Here's a neat summary -
- Mortensen uses the n word.
- The director admits to flashing people on sets.
- The screenwriter apologises for promoting Islamophobia.
- The family of the man portrayed says the movie is all wrong and they were never spoken to.
- And just today, a reviewer from NBC has shared an angry, snarky email she received from one of the producers after she gave it a bad review.
Coleman and Spike Lee winning were fun moments though.
