When making a film so many people work hard on it and it's mostly the actors/directors/writers that get all the credit from the GP but it takes more than just those people to pull it all together and the others deserve to be recognized too IMO.

For 6 yrs. my eldest dated/lived with a reality tv editor. These people work tedious hours for very little wages. They have to freelance to make ends meet. So--it's like working multiple jobs.
The little people count.

Yep... we have one in our family and her phone contacts/ shoulder rubbing at all the exclusive parties is epic but her pay is appalling for her talent and hours on shows that produce millions in revenue....she does voiceover work on the side that pays well.

Javier Bardem beatingheart

Samuel L Jackson, another fantastic actor. Amazing career.

Jen Aniston did a nice job with the memorials. And I love Sarah B and the song "both sides now". What a lovely tribute to all lost this year. Loved how Bill Paxton who was lost too early at 61 today was given his due too.

Very nice tribute. I'm always surprised at how many have passed when they do the tributes.

by Kashathediva Sun Feb 26, 2017 11:44 pm

I give props to JK. Nice job.

I know, he's been great. Just hosting the Oscars, no big deal.

Ryan Gosling lost yes

LaLa Land shouldn't win in any of the acting categories IMO. Also Ryan Reynolds is the superior Canadian Ryan :yes:

. I feel very strongly about this

Emma was actually the worst in that category IMO (that category was stacked) but I love her so I'm not mad Hugesmile

I'm glad Emma Stone won. I loved her dress, too. So many great noms for best picture. I say Fences. I know that is number 1 on my list to view first. Then LaLa. I love--lurve musicals.
