And I should elaborate that The Joker is not gonna beat any of the other films its going up against. It doesn't have better cinematography then 1917 or The Lighthouse for example. It never had a chance against those films for example.

I think Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Parasite were better than Joker so I'd be fine with those two beating it in multiple categories. The Lighthouse didn't really do much for me, haven't seen 1917 yet. Just because there were better films doesn't automatically make Joker a bad one.

God damn it, this thread is too fun and I can't commit to abstaining when I've watched every Oscars for the last 20 years. Guess I'll turn this shit on.

I see what they're doing by having the relatively unknown minority actors introduce the award presenters...and I honestly have no problem with it because it gives them a chance to shine.

I've only been watching for 20 minutes, and this song is ok, but god damn I have seen more musical performances than awards

And my post was saying I have no clue why people think The Joker was going to take any categories besides male acting and some random techincal ones. It's not a bad movie but it ain't in the league of the films its going up against in those particular categories. Even actin isn't a given considering the stiff competition and the fact I don't think Phoenix's performance was matched by the material he had to work with.

Just got an article notification from CNN saying Eminem performed at the Oscars and that not everyone was sure what he was doing there...
