Mr. Breathmask

There was also a time when every Mission: Impossible movie would have a new director to keep the series fresh. By the time this is released, McQuarrie will have directed four out of eight of these. So yeah.

It's hard to imagine what 2018 would have been like if Williams hadn't fallen ill. I would have seen the man conduct two world-class orchestras in the span of less than ten days. And even after the replacement and rescheduling these concerts still became legendary anyway.

If Williams had been able to attend the London concert, we would have torn the house down.

Birds of Prey got good reviews? How? Why? It's awful.

More importantly: will we finally get all that 20th Anniversary Edition goodness that was promised back in 2002?

Well, apparently there's an open bar at the Oscar's and they have been there for over three hours now, so...

Just play them off like they did to that poor Hair & Makeup lady.

How long are these Best Leading Role speeches? Get on with it!

Joaquin's speech is going well. Is he going to shoot someone?

I was expecting 1917 to do better tonight. I guess it's Parasite's night though. But I'm happy Deakins took home his second Oscar. Well deserved!

Or... those who voted have a different opinion on this score than you do and her gender doesn't enter into it? Pretty surprised Bong Joon Ho beat Sam Mendes for Best Director! Could Parasite be the big winner later tonight as well?

Indeed.

Good for her! And that score was very effective in the film!

Lots of "hurray for women" going on tonight. To the point of feeling forced. Here comes that Best Score Oscar for Joker, I guess...

Randy Newman is looking more and more like a John Goodman/Stephen Root mashup.
