Dracula got screwed. I only say that because I copied and pasted his picks in the Oscar pool thread.

Controversy aside, Casey Affleck rightfully deserved it.

Everyone was picking Affleck until Dracula, then it was all Washington.
Oops.

Weird as it sounds, Moonlight has a better shot of pulling a BP upset at the last moment than you'd think. BP is voted on by a preferential ballot and there are theories that this could favor Moonlight over LLL. LLL still has better odds but I'd give Moonlight a 1 in 3 chance still.

Moonlight is more likely than Manchester.

Both of those would have been preferable to this utterly self-masturbatory choice.

These were the most unpredictable Oscars ever.

I take it all back. It was all worth it for that one moment. People are going to look back at that for the next 50 years. This beats Oprah/Uma, this beats everything.

Maybe the best Oscar ceremony ever? It's hard to recall these things off the top of my head.

And of course, social media is already turning this into a racial thing. The Black movie took the Oscar from the White movie. I bet most of these people haven't even seen Moonlight. Let's just laugh at the absurdity of the moment and not turn it into something that's gonna fuel all the people that voted for Trump.

Running conspiracy theory is that Leonardo Di Caprio (who presented the Emma Stone Oscar) may have had some responsibility for that disaster.

Emma Stone just said she was holding her card the whole time and has no idea what Warren Beatty was talking about. This had to have been a prank. |

Yeah...part of me wonders if this was an elaborate prank pulled by the La La Land crew. I was only half-paying attention by the point the issue was brought up, but I thought one of the La La Land producers phrased it in such a way that suggested it may have been a ruse. Or am I wrong and we need to review the tape?
