Well I mean Mel IS on some kind of speed or coke, but casually smoking weed during the Oscars the actors actresses just passing around blunts and having a good time and would make for amazing-er acceptance speeches.

If there is one thing Doug Bensen has contributed to this world, it's an example of how horrifically unfunny weed actually makes people.

Costume work for La La Land looks so freaking normal. Why would it even get a nod in that?

It transitions from bright, popping colors to more sombre tones as the movie progresses. It's a nice stylistic decision and one that isn't given all that much thought in low budget films anymore.

I think an actor calling himself a migrant worker is a bit off-putting.

Why did they have the voice over script ready talking about how La La Land won 7 Oscars etc though? Did they write one for everything so they didn't leak the winner or smth?

Yes. There are only a few handfuls of people at PriceWaterhouseCoopers who know the actual winners. You think they're gonna write down the results for voiceover lady and risk someone snapping a picture before the show?

Zootopia had animal main characters, simple jokes that will get kids rolling, and hidden jokes for their parents. It's pretty much tailor-made for the Oscars.

Yes why did no one ever think to develop a foolproof digital database tied to the teleprompter in order to solve a problem that has occurred twice(?) in 89 years?

One thing I noticed when Ben Affleck and Matt Damon came out to present, and they were jokingly playing Damon off during his intro, I think Damon was actually a little upset. It seemed like he was thinking, "Come on, stop loving around, we're actually giving out an award right now."

And I'd agree.

I think Damon might have had some heads up for that one. He kept vamping for like 20 seconds while the camera panned down to Kimmel in the orchestra pit.
