Emma Stone in Elie Saab
Reactions:
Best dressed: Laura Dern, Ana Faris, Emma Stone.
Best win: Interstellar, because I wasn't sure it was going to win anything, and nothing in this category is more deserving.
Best predix prowess: I killed in the technical categories. Yeah.
Best hosting surprise / gag: I really thought Neil Patrick Harris was going to play safe, but he went out there. Even if his (?) jokes were sometimes off, they were anything BUT safe. I really did enjoy the random gag with Miles Teller playing his drums while NPH ran on stage in his underwear. Brilliant.
Surprise take-over: Budapest did gangbusters on the tech side!
Undeserving win: Birdman for Cinematography?
Speechifying: Wow did they ever hit all the sob points with speeches about suicide and MS and freedom fries.
Best cheer: Seeing Wes Anderson clapping beside his ears for his fellow Budapest people made me happy.
Best cryer: Did anyone see Chris Pine shedding manly tears after Glory was sung?
Best nominee reaction: Emma Stone clutching her Lego Oscar. So cute.
WTF: I'm not sure if it was scripted or not, but man, Oscars is not doing anything for John Travolta. What was with the face touching?
WTF 2: The Lego song performance. Best thing of the night, hands down. Made me sad to remember the film wasn't nominated.
Unnecessary segment: Lady Gaga may be showing off her range, but I knew that already, and it was totally unnecessary.
Unnecessary miss: Why didn't the Oscars show any work during the In Memoriam segment? And Joan Rivers was left off - that's not classy, Oscars, even if the lady wasn't known for class.
