2024 Oscar Recap Winners, Surprises and Cringe Moments with Mike and Kelsey

00:00:01
Speaker 1: We are here, me moving, Mike Kelsey, how are you?

00:00:05
Speaker 2: I'm great. I'm sitting here with the heating pad on my shoulders. I was trying to be a strong independent woman on my flight four weeks ago and put my bag in the overhead bin. And the problem isn't that I'm not strong, It's that I'm short, and so getting a large object over my head is usually difficult. And I pulled a back muscle and it still hurts four weeks later, and I am icing it. I'm using a heating pad. I'm putting like Ben gay on at night. It's real. It's really fun being thirty.

00:00:35
Speaker 1: But we're here to talk about the oscars.

00:00:36
Speaker 2: You're shut up about your injury.

00:00:39
Speaker 1: Yes, Big night last night. We'll go through the winners. We'll talk about our best and worst moments of the night, some cringe worthy moments of the night, the fashion, the fashion. But first we'll get into the big winner that you've seen by now. Best Picture went to Oppenheimer. I didn't really think there were any surprises there going into this. I knew how how much Oppenheimer was going to dominate because it was nominated the most and really there wasn't any competition.

00:01:06
Speaker 2: The surprise was how terribly it was announced.

00:01:09
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we'll get into that.

00:01:10
Speaker 2: That was the surprise.

00:01:11
Speaker 1: That was the surprise. But I did have a bet with producer Eddie from The Bobby Bone Show, which if you don't know, I am the head writer over there, and we had this parlay bet where if all three of my picks hit, I would win one hundred dollars. If just one of them missed, he would win twenty dollars for me, which is a terrible bet on his end, mainly because I don't think he knew how much I knew going into it. The funny thing is he hated Oppenheimer, so it'd even.

00:01:41
Speaker 2: Go against you though your movie, Mike.

00:01:44
Speaker 1: Because you think in a parlay it's hard to hit because it just one of those things goes wrong, the whole bet is out. And to be honest, it is rare for a movie to dominate that much in those three categories, very big categories, and when it comes to the way that people vote, I feel like there's always a wild card in one of those where either they go a little bit more like on the foreign film side, or they just pick an actor kind of at a left field and they end up winning, And at one point I thought, oh man, they could go with somebody else here. But after watching all of these movies and knowing what I know about how these people vote, I just didn't see anybody else taking those home. Like I just couldn't visualize it. And that's how I think about these awards is literally in my head. Try to visualize that person winning, and if I can see that in my head, see their speech, see the way that their performance was in that movie, that is who I go with. But in this case, in this partly we had I had Best Picture Oppenheimer, which won. I had Best Director Christopher Nolan. He won his first Oscar ever, which is astonishing that it took him this long to win Best Director. A lot of people last night won for the first time ever that you think, oh, they probably have a lot of Oscars. Not the case. Best Actor, another first time winner, went to Killy and Murphy. It was just kind of cool for him because he's been working with Christopher Nolans so long. I know one of them referenced it in their speech of being longtime collaborators, and he has gone from having smaller supporting roles in Christopher Nolan movies to now in one of the most epic roles of his life. Now has an oscar Win. I thought that was pretty cool.

00:03:27
Speaker 2: I love seeing people win for the first time, and I also love that you won one hundred dollars. Thank you at you going out to dinner on your dime.

00:03:34
Speaker 1: I don't want to say that was the easiest one hundred dollars that I've ever won. Pretty easy, but that I made those pigs back in January when it was first announced, he.

00:03:43
Speaker 2: Said, January twenty fourth, I.

00:03:44
Speaker 1: Posted the text, I had the proof, I had the receipts, so I just knew how much Oppenheimer was going to dominate that even right before, I would have felt comfortable adding Robert Downey Junior. And I know you could come in now like, oh yeah, I knew that one too, But there was nobody else in that category that I thought did as good of a job as Robert Downey Junior did. And supporting actor is always kind of weird because the way you get nominated for that and the level it just I guess just when it comes down to screen time, it's like, what really warrants just supporting actor?

00:04:20
Speaker 2: It is weird too, like supporting actor makes you feel like you're like kind of like subpar, like any category. Speaking of Robert Downey Jr. I will say some of Jimmy Kimmel's jokes are pretty low blows. And you could tell when Robert Downey Junior gave a speech he was pissed off about that opening monologue.

00:04:38
Speaker 1: Yeah, here's that moment from last night.

00:04:40
Speaker 2: This is the highest point of Robert Downey Junior's long and illustrious career, but one of the highest points. But Robert has been a.

00:04:56
Speaker 3: Was that too on the nose?

00:04:57
Speaker 1: Or was out a drug motion? You made weird to hear everybody laugh at that.

00:05:01
Speaker 2: Oh it was bad even listening to it again, it's just so cringey.

00:05:05
Speaker 1: And then later when Robert Downey Junior won, he made like a reference to his lawyer. It almost sounds like he was gonna sue Jimmy Kimmel for the joke. Is the kind of vibey God, I haven't seen anything about that today.

00:05:17
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I didn't take it at that. I just when he shouted out like his really terrible childhood And if you don't know, I feel like most people know, but most people know, or was an addict had some issues, has been I think clean and sober for like over twenty years and like really turned his yes, I mean life round. And I just I feel like jokes like that are jokes about someone's personal struggles or like misogynistic jokes to me are such low hanging fruit to where it's like, if that's the funniest you can come up with, you're not actually that funny.

00:05:50
Speaker 1: I felt like the comedy in general last night was pretty by the numbers, and it feels like hosting is just like a loop whose lose situation right now?

00:06:02
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, because it's like you either make like the misogynistic go after Taylor Swift jokes. But I just feel like there's ways to be funnier other than making some fun of someone's addiction.

00:06:12
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a way to be funny in a war shows anymore. I think the format as far as like being a funny host is dead. You just can't really do it anymore as somebody. I'm somebody who writes jokes like that for those situations, it is hard to do. The only person I see right now doing it well is Trevor Noah, and he doesn't really so much is write a bunch of like jokes, roasting people, which there's a difference between roasting and just going at low hanging fruit and like really just hating on people. He really approached the Grammys when he hosted as more of just being almost like not punching down, but just like highlighting people, making fun moments.

00:06:50
Speaker 2: And not jokes were funnier.

00:06:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he wasn't so much focused on like I want people tomorrow to say Trevor Noah was such a great host, and he was so hilarious. He just did a good job at what a host should do now is keeping it moving along.

00:07:03
Speaker 2: I was just about to say the job of a host is like move it along, keep it going.

00:07:08
Speaker 1: Keep it positive, and then highlight the celebrities there who they come there and they don't really want to get ridicule, like have fun with them, do some moments that aren't necessarily going to make anybody mad, and not necessarily try to be so like Ah, he really got them with that one.

00:07:27
Speaker 2: I think one of the best moments in I don't even remember what year it was, but was when Jimmy took some celebrities over to the theater where they were streaming and doing like an Oscar's watch party and they passed out like pizza to people like I think there's just a way to make it entertaining without making fun of people. And I'm sure some people would be like, everyone's too sensitive, but I don't think it's sensitive when yeah, you people show up. They're there to be recognized for their work. They don't want to be ridiculed for who they are.

00:08:00
Speaker 1: I agree, And I even like Jimmy Kimmel.

00:08:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's one of the funnier I think Jimmy Fallon would do a good job too.

00:08:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, but again, I think people just don't want to take these jobs anymore because you're just gonna end up looking bad. Like that is really the like the best case scenario you do an okay job and nobody mentions you the next day, or you do some jokes that people don't like and then people roast you during the ceremony or the next day, is just terrible. So I if I had to rate Jimmy Kimmel as a host B minus C plus, that's what I would do.

00:08:34
Speaker 2: Giermo was funny.

00:08:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, and there's our Mexican representation there.

00:08:39
Speaker 2: I love Germo when he said he was married to Shirley's there and then Panda her and she's like, I didn't.

00:08:43
Speaker 1: Know we were married, and he his and now everybody shot tot tequila.

00:08:46
Speaker 2: Those were very fancy little tequila bottles.

00:08:48
Speaker 1: It was moving gone down the list. Best Actress went to Emma Stone. I got that one right. So far, I have nailed all my picks. That was wait, actually I got that one wrong. I went with literally glad Stone.

00:09:01
Speaker 2: I was surprised, but I was happy for him. I think Emma deserved it as well. I thought if it was gonna be anyone, that was gonna be either of them. I didn't feel like the other three were too serious. Although Sandra Huler was in two movies that were nominated, which is pretty cool.

00:09:20
Speaker 1: Yeah, Carrie Mulligan, she was there, and I forgot that she's married to Mumford and Son's guy. And you tell me every time that I forget that she was married to muf.

00:09:29
Speaker 2: Every time, or I'm like, she's married one time. No. One time, I said she's married to Marcus Mumford and you said who is that? And I said Mumford and Sons.

00:09:39
Speaker 1: Oh, I thought he was another actor, But.

00:09:41
Speaker 2: Karrie Mulligan was best dressed. That dress was phenomenal, she looked beautiful.

00:09:47
Speaker 1: I thought I wasn't surprised that Emma Stone winning.

00:09:51
Speaker 2: Poor Things did a bit of a sweep.

00:09:52
Speaker 1: When you think about this is how I have to look at it totally objectively and take out what it would have meant for Lily Glad's to win, which it would have been a big moment we were wanting, and I think and I think that's what it became more of, because I think that would have had more of an impact, would have been more showing representation in film, which is highly important. I just did it in the episode talking about how white and male the top ten right now is, so I think that would have been important. I also would have loved it for her because winning an Oscar is great. You don't really get money from it, but you're able to work more because you can say I am an Oscar winning actor. So I would have loved that for her. But when it comes down to the roles on their own, you take that, you take all that out of it. Emma Stone's performance and Poor Things is more monumental to making that movie work. All the things that her character went through in that movie and how she depicted that was incredible, and it's such so much more of a driving force than Lily Gladstone's character and Killers of the Flower Moon. My real issue with that movie is what Scorsese decided to focus on in that story. If it would have focused more on Lily Gladstone and the Osage tribe, it would have been a much different and more impactful movie and more of a novel movie that probably would have won for Best Picture like the book. But they decided to focus more on Leonardo DiCaprio and de Niro and really just became another Martin Scorsese crime drama. Therefore, I feel like that movie lost some of the impact that it had. And also when you look at Lily Gladstone as Best Actress here, it was almost like her role wasn't as big in that movie as Emma Stones was, so it was almost, I don't want to say, unfairly matched. But if she would have been nominated for Best Supporting Actress, that's also weird how they determined this. She would have easily won that. Yeah, you're right, but I think for her it was probably a lot cooler and more impactful to be nominated for Best Actress, but just on the roles alone and how much Emma Stone did in that. I'm not surprised that she won, but I just thought that the Academy would vote for Lily Ladstone. That was a great moment. And here is a bit of Emmastone's speech from last night.

00:12:10
Speaker 4: I'm so deeply honored to share this with every cast member, with every crew member, with every single person who poured their love and their care and their brilliance into the making of this film in Orgo, thank you for the gift of a lifetime in Bella Baxter, I am forever thankful for you. Thank you for inviting all of us to be members of this team.

00:12:33
Speaker 1: Thank you. She felt very human going up there. She had that dress malfunction.

00:12:39
Speaker 2: I was obsessed with that. She was like, my dress is broken in the back, don't look at it.

00:12:41
Speaker 1: And the other thing I always forget is that Emmastone is married and has a baby as a three year old.

00:12:46
Speaker 2: Yes, I loved the reunion between Emmastone and Sally Field.

00:12:50
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, from Spider Man.

00:12:52
Speaker 2: I did. I thought that was like so sweet and pure.

00:12:55
Speaker 1: Best Supporting Actress went to Davine Joy. Randolph from that The Holdovers. Yeah, that was a great win for her. I'm I guess I'm not surprised at how much that movie didn't win, but I'm glad that out of everybody that she won.

00:13:12
Speaker 2: I will also say we almost missed that award because we were going to pick up dinner and we didn't think they started with that strong of an award, so we listened to the Oscars through bluetooth in the car on the way to pick up dinner.

00:13:24
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the earlier start time on the Oscars.

00:13:27
Speaker 2: I love it nomenal.

00:13:29
Speaker 1: Starting an hour early is the way to go because this award show always goes on so long, and for me, I love it, But it starts to become ten thirty, ten forty five. It keeps going on longer and longer. Last night it was done by around nine to thirty Central. Amazing. We were able to watch Abbott Elementary after it.

00:13:48
Speaker 2: I was like, that means it's only seven thirty in LA and they are all about to party. That's so hard.

00:13:52
Speaker 1: That's awesome for them, the people who just won. It's the night is so young. You can go out, get your in and out and then go to parties.

00:14:00
Speaker 2: I love seeing all of the party picks.

00:14:02
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's kind of a dream.

00:14:04
Speaker 2: Like the Vanity Fair.

00:14:05
Speaker 1: So you would rather go just for the after parties. I would rather go just to the award show.

00:14:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I said you can hobnob with people. Hobno, isn't it used the phrase hobnob.

00:14:14
Speaker 1: Best Animated Feature, got this one right. It went to The Boy and the Heron. So so far, I've only missed one of these. Best Adapted Screenplay went to American Fiction, which I said it would be Oppenheimer, but a much cooler win for American Fiction to win.

00:14:31
Speaker 2: We loved that movie.

00:14:32
Speaker 1: That was a great speech that the director gave. I think out of everybody, he felt like the most genuine to just be up there, which is cool. I know some of these awards aren't the most sexy of award categories. Then the people go up there and you're like, I don't know who this person is, but those people just like cherish it so much more. And I think that is what makes me love the Oscars, because you see these people who either wrote or directed these movies, worked on the costumes. They get to go up there and be recognized, and I feel like that is just more wholesome to me than like a big Hollywood actor who gets paid millions of dollars and is already celebrated all the time, other.

00:15:12
Speaker 2: Very genuine people going up there was it for Best Documentary Short? It was The Last Repair Shop. Yes, twelve year old was the twelve year old who's featured in it. She looked like a queen. She was so beautiful, and she went up on stage and she just stood there and smiled, and she had her purse, and I just I loved that moment for her, Like she didn't stop smiling ah time. I hope that like that is like one of the coolest moments of her life, is that she got to be on stage and I feel like everyone was so excited to see her, Like walking down like that moment just gave me chills. It was so pure.

00:15:44
Speaker 1: That was cool. Best the original screenplay. I got this one wrong. I said it would be The Holdovers. It actually went to Anatomy of a Fall, which I don't know if the controversy they came out right before the oscars of The Holdovers possibly being plagiarized had anything to do with that. I'm really too late in the voting process, but anatomy of the fall, a fall of a fall. That movie was boring.

00:16:09
Speaker 2: The dog, the dog being there last night.

00:16:11
Speaker 1: The dog was the best part in him clapping in the audience was the best part for me.

00:16:16
Speaker 2: They weren't gonna let the dog go, but it was like a thing and people were like, no, let the dog and his name's Messy. You need SSI.

00:16:26
Speaker 1: It was great, but I feel like some people who enjoy courtroom dramas.

00:16:31
Speaker 2: Like found the courtroom drama and that was not for me.

00:16:34
Speaker 1: It was not for me. It was like, did she do it? Did she not do it? Do I care about this? I really don't. But oh man, of all the movies to be nominated, there, I just I.

00:16:45
Speaker 2: Just put it together. That's why they played the instrumental version of the oscarslast night, because that was the song you listened to. That was how much I wrote that movie out of my brain. Is that in this moment right now recording this, I was like, that's why there was the intrynal version. Pimp at the Oscar.

00:17:02
Speaker 1: I do enjoy the band they have playing and all those little things they put in there. I wish they would have played the Godzilla song though Best International Film went to the Zone of Interest. I thought it would be the Society of the Snow. The more I get removed from watching The Zone of Interest, the more I realized it's impactfulness.

00:17:21
Speaker 2: Yeah you didn't.

00:17:22
Speaker 1: I didn't like it at all when we saw it.

00:17:24
Speaker 2: I did.

00:17:25
Speaker 1: I could appreciate the story and what it was trying to depict, which is something really dark, and the performances were very just cold to me.

00:17:37
Speaker 2: But that's again how they were. And I think I enjoyed it more because of my World War two deep dives that I always go down. And if you don't know what the Zone of Interest is about, it is about a Nazi officer and his wife that lived directly next door to Auschwitz, and it's just about like their lives and how they can be so close to this like terrible thing happening and just go about their daily lives in a cold manner, like you said.

00:18:00
Speaker 1: And I think that's what that movie did, was show how just dry and cold and how mundane their life is despite the fact of what they are around and what they are surrounded by, and the things heat you see and the things that they don't show is almost more eerie because they don't show it, they don't show what's happening, and it's just these people trying to live a normal life. And I guess for me it was hard to feel empathetic towards them in any way because they I.

00:18:27
Speaker 2: Don't think you were supposed to though, Yeah.

00:18:29
Speaker 1: I guess it's just hard for me to be.

00:18:30
Speaker 2: Like, I don't think you're supposed to feel empathy towards them at all.

00:18:33
Speaker 1: But for me, I want something bad to happen to them because they are Nazis, and knowing the outcomes obviously a World War two, I want to see them go down. Every not to in a movie, I want to see go down. So I guess that movie was just hard for me to not have that gratification. It was just hard for me to also get into because it was showing just a dry, slow story and it probably did that on purpose, but I don't.

00:19:00
Speaker 2: Think it helped you though that we were in the very small room at the bell Court, and sometimes it's hard to enjoy movies. You're very close thirty person seating and you're just like on top of each other. Yeah.

00:19:11
Speaker 1: Best Film Editing went to Poor Things. Best Costume Design also went to Poor Things, Best Makeup and Hairstyling again went to Poor Things. They started a clean house did on all of the artistic awards like those. It was like an easy just throw it to poor Things, and they were all like coming one after each other. I think that was cool that they all worked in that movie together and we're all able to win records like that is awesome. But the one I was so excited about Best Visual Effects the movie. I wanted to win the movie. I actually wanted to be nominated for Best Picture Godzilla minus one.

00:19:53
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna go ahead and throw in that. My worst moment of the night was when they wrapped them off the stage with the music. And let me tell you why it pissed me off is because they clearly went up there. It didn't have an interpreter, they were speaking in English, they were reading off their page like they were trying to do it in English by themselves, and that is not their first language. And they wrapped them off the stage and I was like, he is doing his best to give a speech in the language that everyone the audience speaks instead of his own, and he just needed like thirty more seconds. And it really pissed me.

00:20:29
Speaker 1: Off, I know, and that was huge for them. They were so excited going into Awards season. Just to be nominated I think would have been enough for them, but to win.

00:20:36
Speaker 2: They had the Godzilla heels on all their shoes, they had the photo of the creator who passed away.

00:20:40
Speaker 1: They all had their little Godzilla figures. I know. It was so pure like that is what makes me excited about the Oscars, the people who are so passionate about it, And I think that is why that movie was so good and impactful, because they cared so much about making a good Godzilla movie and they loved the character and they gave us that. And to be recognized now and not the biggest of category, but I feel like that's a major win for them.

00:21:06
Speaker 2: That was my most shocking movie of twenty twenty three.

00:21:08
Speaker 1: I enjoyed.

00:21:09
Speaker 2: I did not want to go see it, but I was like, Okay, we'll go after dinner on Friday. Loved it.

00:21:13
Speaker 1: And the thing about it is you can't watch it anywhere if you didn't see it in theaters or when it came back in black and white. It's not available to rent, it's not available to buy. It's not even going to be on Blu Ray for quite a while. They haven't announced anything because it is a Japanese film. The ball is in their court on when to release it in the United States, So as soon it's available, I'll try to post about it or do a segment on it here because I think everybody needs to give that movie a chance. Even though it is in Japanese and you have to watch it with subtitles, but man, what a great movie to see Godzilla after thirty plus films, finally get an Oscar.

00:21:51
Speaker 2: I've said it on here before. I think that watching movies with subtitles makes you smarter as you're watching because you're paying attention and reading at the same time. And I love it because it makes me put I phone down and not multitask. Yeah, I'm so guilty of that. When watching a movie, I feel like.

00:22:04
Speaker 1: You just eat it up more because you're paying attention, and if it's done really well, you get all the emotion out of it, even though you don't understand the language, and you.

00:22:13
Speaker 2: Don't even notice after a certain point that you're reading it, like your brain just absorbs it.

00:22:18
Speaker 1: My favorite moment of the night almost tied. I would almost say that I'm just Ken performance, which I think was the big moment as far as the viral thing, because yeah, but I knew going into it that that was going to be great. I mean, Brian Gosling performing it, you brought out all the people and they know did the ode to like was it?

00:22:37
Speaker 2: Marily Monroe and Madonna I think had also done something similar.

00:22:40
Speaker 1: I just knew that was going to be a big fun moment. Aside from that, the moment I wasn't expecting was John Mulaney getting up there and giving out an award. Here's a little bit of that ow.

00:22:51
Speaker 3: The Oscar for Achievement in Sound. You know, for years movies didn't have sound, and then they figured it out. Some people say that the silent era was the golden era of film. These people are difficult and insane. Without sound, we wouldn't have been able to hear such classic lines as You're gonna need a bigger boat, I'll have what she's having. And he was in the Amazon with my mother when she was researching spiders just before she died.

00:23:17
Speaker 1: A lot of digs at Madam Webb last night. And I think it's just because John mulaney has such a funny voice. He sounds like Spider him without even trying, just him taking is just funny to me. And he is such an effortless comedian that we were talking about earlier. Who would be you know how hard it is to host. I think if he hosted the Oscars, ah, I think I would love it. You think he's too weird.

00:23:38
Speaker 2: Not even that. I just think that a full three hours of John Mulaney, his cadence and Joe telling would be a lot.

00:23:47
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, maybe he's good in a little burst. The worst of the night had to be al Pacino giving out the biggest award of the night and completely watching it.

00:23:57
Speaker 2: Like he was just ordering a bloomin onion at the Aback Steakhouse and.

00:24:00
Speaker 1: They were teasing it the entire time of like this big legend is gonna come out and give the award for Best Picture. And he comes out on stage and does this.

00:24:10
Speaker 2: Ten wonderful films we nominated, but only one will take the award for Best Picture.

00:24:20
Speaker 1: And I have to go to the envelope for that and I will here it comes.

00:24:30
Speaker 3: And Maria, I see Oppenheimer.

00:24:34
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, Amatomas, Josh Gordan, he goes what happened?

00:24:45
Speaker 2: Because he had no clue that he had just read the award.

00:24:49
Speaker 1: Doesn't even say who was nominated. Stumbles into it and I see Oppenheimer and then they just start playing the music and Christopher Nolan gets up there and al Pacino gets shuffled away. What a weird moment. And that is always like the I mean, it is the biggest aword of the night.

00:25:07
Speaker 2: So anti climatic, and there was nothing to it.

00:25:09
Speaker 1: I think the ones I did enjoy when when they did Best Actor and Best Actors that they brought out former That was really cool winners to say a little something about each of the nominees. I haven't seen them do that before. I thought that was a really nice touch. Usually they just bring back the previous winner, but to see them all up there together and it was a little bit time consuming, but I thought that was a really cool moment for each of them.

00:25:32
Speaker 2: I enjoyed that because they were giving like genuine moments of how they knew the person or like Jamie Lee Curtis talked about Jody Foster correct and they're like BFFs, Like I said, Sally Field Emma Stone knew each other. So I thought the like personal connections were really cool.

00:25:56
Speaker 1: Some other moments that were interesting to me, as Wes Anderson all so finally won his first Oscar, but he wasn't there. Maybe he thought he wasn't gonna win, and it was weird that he wanted for the short film on Netflix and wasn't even nominated for Asteroid City, So I bet he was like, you know, I love that film too, but like, I put out a full feature film last year and it didn't get any recognition.

00:26:18
Speaker 2: Billie Eilish has now won more Oscars than Martin Scorsese.

00:26:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, I am so over that song. Though she has been Her and Phineas have been at every single award.

00:26:29
Speaker 2: Show this season, not even just this season. I feel like she always has a song that's a huge round And I love Billie Eilish, but if I have to hear What Was I Made For one more.

00:26:41
Speaker 1: Time, they played it so much, and I like that song in the initial stages, but now I am I don't need to hear that song ever again.

00:26:51
Speaker 2: And I love sad, haunting music, but I'm just over that. They should have done Dua Lipa's Dance the Night Away. That would have been great.

00:26:59
Speaker 1: Were your favorite fashion moments at the night I will say Billie Eilish looked pretty cool.

00:27:06
Speaker 2: Billy's outfit was fabulous.

00:27:07
Speaker 1: She always looks like she's wearing somebody else's clothes, like she just raided somebody else's closet. Last night, I feel like she looked the most normal.

00:27:17
Speaker 2: It was like a very award show look. It was great.

00:27:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought that was good.

00:27:20
Speaker 2: Carrie Mulligan, Emma Stone looked phenomenal. America Ferrera, Margot, Robbie, the whole Barbie cast stunning.

00:27:29
Speaker 1: Yeah. Ryan Gosling his ceremony suit, but also the pink suit he wore during the performance.

00:27:35
Speaker 2: Yes, both great. Divine Joy Randolph looks beautiful.

00:27:40
Speaker 1: How tan was Matthew McConaughey.

00:27:43
Speaker 2: It's very tan.

00:27:44
Speaker 1: He was so tan. He was browner than I am.

00:27:46
Speaker 2: Well, two tan. Maybe I love that Bradley Cooper brings his mom. I thought Robert Donney Junior's wife looked beautiful.

00:27:53
Speaker 1: I wonder if Bradley Cooper knew he wasn't good to win anything that he's like. I put out an Oscar bait film and nobody really cared about.

00:28:00
Speaker 2: Here's the fashion statement. I didn't love both Florence Pugh and Emily Blunt were wearing these dresses that had like floating straps where it just looked like the dress was didn't fit. I didn't love that style.

00:28:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looked like it was frozen and then they were like holding it up.

00:28:16
Speaker 2: I wasn't a big fan of that.

00:28:18
Speaker 1: None of the guys wore ties or ties out, Like the bow tie was there before the majority like the Rock Bad Bunny, they came out no ties. Nobody was wearing ties.

00:28:27
Speaker 2: It's a little too formal stuffy.

00:28:29
Speaker 1: You know what the oscars are though, like black suit tie.

00:28:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I feel like sometimes a tie, Like I don't really need a tie to look cool. There's cooler ways.

00:28:37
Speaker 1: And more reckless not to wear a tie, show a little skin.

00:28:39
Speaker 2: I feel like the like the men's off it's so. I saw a lot of like wide leg pants suit pants, which was cool. Yeah, it was a variation on all of like the suits.

00:28:49
Speaker 1: I think the one who did it best is Robert Downey Junior.

00:28:51
Speaker 2: Another fashion of Zendaya. She never misses with her fashion. She looks stunning. I saw a tweet and they were like, how does it feel to be Zendia and know that you just want everything just by leaving the house like getting dressed.

00:29:03
Speaker 1: And that he came out didn't have anybody else presenting with her, Like does me all you needs? Yeah?

00:29:09
Speaker 2: I loved seeing something like the after party fashion, like Margot Robbie did a gold number and someone was like, I'm really sad this is the end of the Barbie fashion tour and I feel that because her Barbie Press tour looks were a lot really great. I could go on and on about the fashion Withthicisan Fashion podcast, so I'll shut up.

00:29:27
Speaker 1: Now that's still Oscars, so anything else it's all fair game.

00:29:30
Speaker 2: I did see someone on Instagram really pressed about the fact that a lot of the after party fashion was very a nipple forward, free the nip, and somebody commented and they were like, doesn't anyone get arrested for indecent exposure anymore? And I was like, I don't think a dress like showing that it is really a decent exposure. I don't really know.

00:29:51
Speaker 1: Women can't show nipples, but John Cena can come out in a loincloth wearing just holding just the card over. Yeah, welcome to the standard. I thought that was the forced funny moment of the night.

00:30:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, John Cena knows that he is just there to be the laughing stock.

00:30:08
Speaker 1: Yeah he's almost. Yeah, they do use him a lot like that, Hey you're big and muscling.

00:30:12
Speaker 2: Physical comedy be stupid.

00:30:14
Speaker 1: I feel like the Award Show did need that because it wasn't very funny as far as like the bits that they did. It really wasn't anything. So without that it would have just been the I'm just kin performance. But that just felt like, ah, this is good, the one that everybody's gonna be talking about tomorrow. And we rarely mentioned here at the end because it felt low for us.

00:30:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not like a John Cena Stan, but he does have a special place in my heart because he does do all the like make a Wish trips and he holds like the record number of like make a Wish things. So I feel like he's a very nice person. But I do feel bad that he gets just kind of like the trope of like physical comedy all the time.

00:30:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's hit or miss on the movie roles he takes. I think he's really great at Peacemaker. He's done some really good work. So when the Suicide Squad, which is the same character Daddy's Home two, but then he also does like the really waggy comedy roles that well, like Vacation Friends Part one and Part two that are a great Part two.

00:31:13
Speaker 2: May I'm thinking if there's anything else that I want to shout.

00:31:17
Speaker 1: Out, otherwise I think we have covered it all. I was again happy to hit that parlay, but overall, I feel like usually I'm more excited to tell people like, here are all the movies you need to check out that one awards, but really just Oppenheimer and Poor Things dominated and I don't think Poor Things is necessarily for everybody because of the graphic nature of that movie. Also very weird and artsy, which even for me, it took me a little bit to get into liking it. It was once the story developed that I thought, oh, this is actually a movie with a lot to say, and it's pretty powerful, but just done in a really obscure, weird way.

00:31:56
Speaker 2: Another moment I would like to shout out that we did not talk about one of the other performances, the Osage Singers. Oh sorry, my people. I thought that was incredible. I loved that performance. That might be one of my top three moments of the night.

00:32:09
Speaker 1: I wish that song would have won over Billy Eilish.

00:32:11
Speaker 2: No, I really wanted that. I wanted something I think I wanted something for Killers of the Flowermen that represented the Osage and the community. So I would have loved like Lily Gladstone, because she was the first Native to be nominated, I would have loved that for her win. I would have loved that for the Osage Singers. I wanted something celebrating the Native American indigenous communities to win an award like. I didn't need it to be like Robert de Niro Scorsese. I wanted something that celebrated the community that was so traumatized by these events and overlooked and marginalized. So that's why I wish that would have won.

00:32:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, it did not win very much.

00:32:57
Speaker 2: I also would have liked more of the dog from Anatomy of the Fall.

00:32:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's cool dog best actor in that movie.

00:33:03
Speaker 2: Loved learning that Christopher Nolan and his wife worked together on everything.

00:33:06
Speaker 1: She has been a producer on every single one of his movies.

00:33:09
Speaker 2: That was cool. I was like, Wow, I cannot imagine working on every single one of your projects. I don't know that that would be good for us.

00:33:18
Speaker 1: My other favorite win was for the score of Oppenheimer Ludwig One.

00:33:23
Speaker 2: You Love Ludwig and Big.

00:33:25
Speaker 1: Ludwig primarily because he is a longtime collaborator with Childish Gambino. He did a lot of his early albums. They toured together, he was his guitar player, and throughout that time Ludwig was making music for TV shows and movies. He did the theme song for a community. He also put out a EP back in the early twenty tens that I loved, and now has really transitioned into scoring movies like Black Panther did, like The Mandalorian, like these really big epic scores, and has now won a lot of Oscars as well and Grammys. He is incredibly talented and to see somebody go from just doing music and like a bedroom to now being on the biggest stage, winning awards, and also just how much people praise Christopher Nolan for coming back and being loyal to people. It feels like the people who have worked with Christopher Nolan have been around for a long time, and I think that's the coolest thing. When not only do they have actors who they collaborate with again and again, but the cinematographer Ludwig, his wife, like It's just cool to see somebody at that level who could rehire people at a cheaper rate and just be like, all right, I'm the real deal here. I don't need to rely on anybody. He goes to all these people and keeps coming back to them because he values their work. That was another cool thing I really took away from last night. Of all the directors, I feel like he is the most genuine I would agree.

00:34:55
Speaker 2: And to end, I would like to say that my dream host w to be Kate McKinnon. That would be Yeah, she's so funny. She's so funny, like she could command that audience.

00:35:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it needs a female host.

00:35:08
Speaker 2: Weird Barbie forever.

00:35:10
Speaker 1: I'm over the dudes, the late night talk show host.

00:35:12
Speaker 2: It is just like been over dudes for a long time. Let's award show.

00:35:15
Speaker 1: Let's switch it up. But that is our Oscar recap.

00:35:19
Speaker 2: Anything else to summarize Justice for the Gods all minus one special effects team want to hear the rest of their speech. Fashion was phenomenal. Al Pacino was a bust. It wasn't that funny joke?

00:35:35
Speaker 1: Yes, there we go, And if you miss the full new episode, just go back one in the feed and until next time, go out and watch good movies and I will talk to you later
