THE 97TH ACADEMY AWARDS: The MOONLIGHT and Will Smith years were more infamous, but tonight was the most purely pleasurable and graceful Oscars in too long. Once Conan O'Brien locked into his sharp, self-effacing persona, there was no stopping him. And the NO OTHER LAND speech was an all-timer.

The SOFTEST of applause for Emilia PΓ©rez's score nomination. πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜… #Oscars

A few years from now (if not tomorrow), this will be regarded as one of the worst Oscar moments of all time.

and the oscar goes to 'el mal'

The crazy son of a gun might do it. He might go 4 for 4. #Oscars

Tonight's #0scars menu includes the delightfully punny menu items: The Substance - appletini in a syringe The Brew-talist - beer cheese Anora's Chicken Stripper with a Crust of Gold - chicken fingers Corn-clave - street corn dip De-fry-ing Gravy-ty - authentic Canadian poutine

Alright, my top #Oscars guesses get gold stars, and then second place gets silver. If there's no silver star, I consider that category to basically be a lock.

I don't remember what oddly specific awards bit this was, or if it even made it to air, but this guy is hosting the #Oscars this weekend and I couldn't be more excited.

I know the optics night not be great, but Conan could do this bit point for point this weekend and I'd still be laughing just as hard. youtu.be/ETFHeMSIMGc?...

You know the producers of #LoveIsBlind are good at keeping costs low in every facet of production because the fireplaces in the reveal rooms are just TV's showing fire footage built into a frame. They probably saved a thousand dollars by doing that.

After that MSU buzzer beater I made this graphic that I think only me and MAYBE @joereid.bsky.social would appreciate.

Over 500 comments on this local news post, and I've never been happier to see the results. UNIVERSAL OPPOSITION TO THIS GUY AND HIS SHIT VIEWS. FROM EVERY SUBSECTION OF THE POPULACE. EVEN REPUBLICANS ARE LIKE, "HOW BOUT FIXING THE ECONOMY INSTEAD?" Never been happier to have expectations upended.

They should show this in schools. youtu.be/o2jzKo1RqWU?...

@ryancole9.bsky.social AAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY, WELCOME!!! The sports ecosystem on here just got 99.9% more awesome!!

Catching up with #SNL50 and really bummed they brought back Hanks for Black Jeopardy. I get it in theory, but in practice Murphy as Tracy Morgan was killing, and that character needs some runway they didn't have. You could just hear the silence in the room. Just let Eddie kill for 30 more seconds!!

@davidlsims.bsky.social The editor of Wicked realizing he unintentionally invoked the tympani hits he internalized from ET, and he was right to do so! Wicked rules! ET rules! Movies!!! www.instagram.com/reel/DFx-XbN...

Man, this subgenre of YouTube never gets old for me. I eat this stuff up with a big ol spoon! youtu.be/KUIjHf65Jaw?...

My daughter kept me up til almost 2 and then woke up right after 5 should I pursue legal action?

@davidlsims.bsky.social Actually stopped today's episode to revisit Brandon Flowers' second album. Haven't listened through since it came out when I was working at a radio station. This thing still hits!! Thanks for the reminder!

(White guy trying to remember the gist of Kendrick lyrics so he can seem cool) "Trying to hump a lady and she's probably UNDERAAAAAGE" "You're showing disrespect to Tupac? I think the good people of Oakland will have something to say about that!" "(Various Batman onomatopoeia) Dot, mess em up!"

Genuinely hilarious to me that Marvel was spinning its wheels and dropping the ball so bad that Mahershala Ali was like, "I will star in a whole ass Jurassic Park movie while you keep dragging your feet." Seems like he's having a good time in this, so that makes me excited. youtu.be/jan5CFWs9ic?...

"Taking a long blink" I'm fucking dead. πŸ˜‚

The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

Sometimes shuffle knows what it's doing. Case in point: going from Humble by Kendrick to I'm So Humble by The Lonely Island. That's just nice.

Delightful to now know that Lonely Island rented the Mr and Mrs Smith/David Wallace house TWICE to record their albums.

It's been a minute since I've been able to finish one of these! It's good to be back! Vulture Cinematrix No. 313: Feb 2, 2025 I got 9/9 Correct Score: 2670 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 Play at: vulture.com/vulturecinem...

All these skeets, and WHAT DOES HE EXPECT US TO DO ABOUT IT??? WE'RE NOT ELECTED OFFICIALS OVER HERE!!!

Thinking of answering every book-based social prompt with "Big Trouble by Dave Barry." Is that a good bit?

Y'all, #Oscars voting doesn't even begin until February 11. I can't wait to see what gets kicked up by then...

lol at Emilia PΓ©rez using AI to fix accents and singing voices and it STILL sounding like that.

Brb, gonna go watch David Tennant get his Special Recognition again just to feel something.

"No, no, no, we don't dry our hands on the rug, or other people's feet. We use the towel." Ain't raising toddlers the best?

NOT MY HOMETOWN GETTING A RANDOM SHOUT-OUT IN THE LATEST EPISODE OF SEVERANCE!!!!

Until we completely redo our basement, I've got one shelving unit on which to keep my movies (the rest get relegated to binders for the time being). Here's what's on the wall currently! And here's the link to the full collection: www.blu-ray.com/community/co...

I mean, Fred Rogers would probably crush my soul permanently.

I’m just a nominee to be determined standing in front of a boy asking him to love her

Paddington 2 getting that 4K physical release, tho!!! @seanfennessey.bsky.social #DADdington

Love hearing some Mike Mains out in the wild! This just came on in the coffee shop and made my morning! youtu.be/Vcwej1pdgQ8?...
