The last time I watched Oscar was two years before that, when ROTK won. It was a hard task to even stay awake. Nah, I don't bother with those anymore. There really is no point.

KK 3,307 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 They can still make a good night. Although they haven't staged a properly satisfying ceremony since '08 with Jackman, which was a riot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I always like watching the Oscars. Partly real enjoyment, partly roasting it for fun. Tradition for me since the year Titanic won. It's fun for me and my wife to eat junk food and dish. That's the point. SteveMc and KK 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Indeed. I think I've been watching since 2007 I believe. Every year, a few of us place some bets, pass some beers around, and have a fun time. I wish I got to see it during ROTK's year. That must have been quite a night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Ha! The Shape of Water was not even close to The Last Jedi, but Williams wise The Last Jedi wasn't his best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joni Wiljami 1,206 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 One of his best actually, very high in the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,528 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Agreed. I like THE SHAPE OF WATER. It doesn't quite reach the eccentric heights of GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL, but it's pretty darn good, and was the best contender (with the possible exception of PHANTOM THREAD) for the Oscar™.
