Placehoder for further commentary, and more last minute change ... But first, the predix, with my friend Griz's in purple. Winners in red.
Prior to the show comments: you know what, I'm all about the worm of the desert, but that's not what the Oscar's gonna be about, so we're gonna settle in for whatever wins the least amount of outrage.
Show comments:
- Wow I'm so glad Dune wins all the technical stuff, but it also means they're not going up that stage often. What a shame! But could this also mean not that much for Dog?
- Ariana DeBose's red jumpsuit is glorious!
- Oscars is about Dune, after all, even if it's just in the technical categories!
- Best presenter/winner speech combo: Yuh-Jung Youn/Troy Kotsur - she even attempted to sign his name!
- Academy's so rude to Drive My Car's director, Ryusuke Hamaguchi, playing him off after like 10 seconds up there. This was a major category!
- Wow it's not that much of a dog's world after all!
- Who are putting together the fan favourite list? What crap-ola is this?
- WTF HAPPENED. WILL SMITH. SLAPPING. CHRIS ROCK. ON STAGE. JAWS DROPPED.
- You tried, Puff Daddy. You tried. Can the rest of the show recover?
- The show is zippy but, man, it's not doing a good job of highlighting the film nominees.
- Oh Billie, thanks for bringing the show back!
- Jane Campion to Kevin Costner "that was very dramatic" after he tried his darndest to imitate Obama's way of breaking a sentence into ten. I mean, it was pretty sincere and he tried, but yes, that was.
- This Will Smith moment. What did they just censor on my TV when switching to the Williams' sisters? "At your peak, the devil comes for you." Oh, you're so wise, Danzel (or so Will Smith said Danzel said).
-WOW. What a night of a shocker. CODA unseated front runner The Power of the Dog. I guess it's time for the Power of the Nap! To the dog house!
Winners: Dune, CODA, Oscar's relevance
Not winners: Craftspeople that make the movies (thanks to pre-taped, edited down version of their wins), The power of the dog went from front runner to losing everything except Director, Chris Rock (no matter the fall out, the Will Smith moment was not great for him), nominated couples

2 Response to Oscars winners 2022 predix (and winners): Is it a dog's world?
I tallied things up, you got 14 plus 4 alternates right outta 20 categories, and I got 17 plus 2 alternates! You needed to believe in Dune more and you could've had me!
Oh, and apparently the CODA win isn't THAT big of a shocker if we'd paid closer attention to the precursors! I read today that no film has lost Best Picture at the Oscars if they also won both the SAG ensemble award and the PGA award (which CODA did). I knew it was creeping up there but still thought Dog would have its day.
Right, but the lack of Dune's director nomination threw me off! I wasn't sure it was all that well loved. A lot of rules went out the window this year, though? What happened with Dog though? Wasn't it a clear front runner at some point? I obviously did not pay attention to any pre-season drama! Re CODA, I just read that it is a remake of a remake? I haven't seen it so a. I can't make an accurate assessment of its quality, and b. I can't make predictions of its Oscar chances accurately beyond hearsay. Which is why my predictions suffered; that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
