I thought Demi Moore had it nailed on. Incredible for Mikey! #oscars

Adrien Brody looking to add an intermission to his acceptance speech here. #oscars

Something ironic about the Sound Oscar Winner getting his mic turned off... #oscars

There has been refreshingly little playing off of speeches this year. #oscars

The slightly dishevelled, very British, crew getting Oscars will always be brilliant. #oscars

What a speech from Zoe Saldana. I'm crying. #oscars

I LOVE that Isabella Rossellini is wearing Blue Velvet. What a touching tribute to David Lynch. #oscars

If The Brutalist wins for editing that's...mildly hilarious. #oscars

Why Bond...? #oscars

Really reassuring to see horror getting acknowledged at the #oscars with The Substance makeup win.

"I'm here with my daughter. This is for you. ... That's not the same as saying it belongs to you. It's not like that jumper you keep stealing. This is mine." Lovely little speech from Peter Straughan, Conclave screenplay writer. #oscars

Getting actors who wore the costumes to present the costume designer oscar is a really lovely, personal touch. #oscars

Wait. Is that RON SWANSON announcing all the presenters?! #oscars

My predictions are not going well so far this year. 1 for 3. #oscars

First Latvian nomination and win with Flow. The Wild Robot would have been a worthy winner but I need to check out Flow now. #oscars

Brilliant speech from a worthy winner in Culkin. Can't believe this kid has an Oscar.

Chaplin's "Smile" to welcome on Downey Jr was a lovely touch.

O S C A R S For the next few hours this is an Academy Awards viewing account.

Ahead of Sunday, herein my predictions. I didn't watch last year, for only the second time since 1999. Back in the game for 2025, and ready to watch the madness unfold.

As a child for the longest time I couldn't stand him because I hated him so much because he was Lex Luthor and Lex Luthor was the bad guy and you were supposed to hate him. That's how unbelievably good he was. Such an incredible body of work he leaves behind. Requiescat in Pace.

London, I am in you. Off to the Theatre Royal to see Tom Hiddleston and Hayley Atwell in Much Ado About Nothing. Opening night was last night, and the reviews are INSANE.

🌟 Exciting News! The Choral Evensong Trust is helping churches bring back choral evensong with our Patronal Festival Grants! 🎶 87 churches applied—way more than we expected—and we’ve already funded most of them! But we still need £14,000 to support them all.

Might rewatch Dave.

Absolutely gutted to read this. What an absolute legend. Requiescat in pace.

Love dry January.

Watching Elementary and a young upcoming Superman just rocked up. I love a pre-fame spot.

An excellent Thursday out in that there London watching A Midsummer Night's Dream at the Barbican, followed by dinner at Polpo.

Off to the Barbican today to see Matthew Baynton in A Midsummer Night's Dream. New Year off to a great start.

For those who play still, I just lost my 85 day streak. Wordle 1,300 X/6 🟨⬜⬜🟩⬜ ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜🟩🟩 ⬜🟩⬜🟩🟩 ⬜🟩⬜🟩🟩
