Hello
Setting up thread for later, providing I can actually keep awake for it.
Frances should be a shoo-in for best actress. I know of its backlash but thought 3 billboards was vgd, woody harrelson nomination also well deserved.
Would like Silent child to win best short.
Will any of you be watching?

I started one earlier but no one responded. I wonder if people are just fed up after whats been going on. Maybe they feel its too fake.

If they showed it on the BBC like they did in the 90s I’d stay up and watch it just for the high camp!

It seems to be a pretty open field this year, I could easily see any of the nominations winning.

I realised earlier that the BBC Revolting Rhymes is up for Best Short Animation, which pleases me, it was wonderful!

There are lots of political women there this year. I have a feeling something will happen.

I’m in Australia and it’s my one day off this week. I just cancelled my hairdresser’s appt so I can sit on my couch all day!
Haven’t watched any of the movies Blush but I always watch the Oscars.
E! is really weird, normally packed with celebs, it’s just Giuliana filling time.

I've signed up for the NowTV free trial and pass for SkyCinema, but I can't for the life of me work out how to actually find the channel to stream it on my iPad!

Can anybody help?

Joining in. This is me finally fulfilling a longheld ambition to stay up and watch the Oscars. Happen to have tomorrow off work so taking advantage.
