Jennifer Lawrence continues her streak of being relatable at the Oscars

Jennifer Lawrence continues to insist on treating the Academy Awards as a parkour gymnasium. 

During Sunday’s show, J-Law took her annual Relatablex™ pill and once again did something that a celebrity of her stature would never do, but normals sure love. Instead of her time-honored trips to the ground, the star of the best movie of 2017 (mother!), climbed over some theater seats to gab with Meryl Streep.

She hiked up her fancy shmancy gown like it was a pair of shorteralls and stepped her highest of heels over those dirty seats because she’s too busy to walk all the way to the aisle. JUST LIKE I WOULD DO! Read more…

In his second consecutive year hosting the Oscars (and year one was pretty eventful), Jimmy Kimmel started the night with quick quip about his track record.

“This year, when you hear your named called, don’t get up right away,” Kimmel began, referencing the La La Land/Moonlight gaffe of 2017.

Kimmel talked about the Oscars and their history, since it is the 90th year of the telecast, pointing to the Oscar “statue of limitations” as an ideal Hollywood man (“hands where you can see them…no penis”). He then segued into Harvey Weinstein’s expulsion from the Academy – the only person to receive that treatment previously was a character actor who shared his private screeners. Read more…

The very same actors who announced the wrong Best Picture at last year’s Oscars have been invited back for another year.

But guys, it wasn’t really their fault, remember? 

When Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway announced La La Land as Best Picture instead of Moonlight at last year’s Academy Awards, everyone watching spontaneously combusted — including La La Land producer Jordan Horowitz, who had to hand over the gold onstage.

Now, TMZ reports, Dunaway and Beatty are being given a chance to get the announcement for Best Picture right. They’ve been invited back to present the same award category at this year’s Oscars on March 4. Read more…

This year’s Best Picture nominees deserve to be seen as classic comic strips

Sunday is the 90th Academy Awards, so naturally I tried to think of the dumbest thing I could do to honor them.

Truthfully, the Best Picture category is more stacked than it’s been in my memory. Almost all of the most-honored movies are already classics, and they’re a clear representation of the year’s best in cinema. (Though I would have also preferred that The Florida Project, Killing of a Sacred Deer, and mother! were up there as well.) Still, it’s been a great year for movies and good on the Oscars for recognizing that.

So what if — stay with me here — we could see these movies as classic newspaper comic strips? Read more…
