We’ve not talked about Brie Larson’s “no chill” reaction to Casey Affleck winning, not that there’s much to say other than good on her:

(p.s sorry for Buzzfeed but it’s just the easiest way to visualise what happened)

PwC adjudicate the National Lottery over here as well (that bloke/ladybloke with the clipboard who stands off to the left and doesn’t do anything is one of their ghouls). They’ve dicked that up a few times but fortunately no-one watches it any more.

Good on her.

He still deserved to win, mind you.

Yes, he did undoubtedly have the stand out male performance of the field but his allegations, and the implied celebration of them, are still a bit troubling. I wonder if Mel Gibson was allowed back in purely to deflect some of the attention…

Yeah like I said I think it’s more notable how few mistakes happen to be honest. Whether or not it’s money well spent is another matter.

Also it’s reassuring that the representation of the Oscars in Naked Gun 33 1/3 is pretty accurate.

weird that she was the one presenting it

I would assume that it’s a tradition for last years best actress winner to present the best actor this year

So plenty of awkwardness awaits next year when Casey Affleck presents Best Actress then

Yeah it’s a shitty but also kinda funny coincidence

Doesn’t the previous year’s best actress winner usually present the best actor award (and vice versa)?

As literally just discussed, yes

So it’s not a coincidence?

Well, it is in the a woman who won an award for her portrayal of a rape victim had to present an award to a man who is accused of not quite rape but certainly sexual assault, which is the point of the post, is a bit of a coincidence, yes but thanks for making me spell it out
