The Oscars

Now I know what your thinking “But the Oscars happened last week why are you dong this now” and I know it did but i decided to watch them because I wanted to know who won certain awards (best picture included) and I have to say for this years Oscars I have never felt so awkward watching them.

Let’s get started with one of the problems, the host Neil Patrick Harris, now at first I thought he was going to be great but let’s just say he can not crack a joke, with every time he told a joke the audience never laughed or cracked a smile (all you needed was tumbleweed) seriously his jokes were God awfully bad, definatly not as good as barney from how I met your mother. Another problem was how predictable the awards were gonna be (I know your gonna disagree with me on this one but hear me out) they were predictable because when you saw who was up it was obvious who was going to win the best picture award I did not see coming at all this year, although there was some surprising winners this year, but I have my own theory, when ever someone wins a BAFTA they are in the seat to win an Oscar, boyhood won for best supporting actress and she won an Oscar as well, now I know it’s a rubbish theory but that’s my opinion.

But enough complaining let’s take a look at who the winners were. For best picture Birdman (didn’t see that one coming at all) now this was up against films like Selma, American Sniper even boyhood lost to Birdman. Another shock was in the best animated film category (I’m still glad big hero 6 won) but that doesn’t mean you snub the Lego movie I mean come on that film was the definition of awesome still at least it was up for best original song for everything is awesome (if you’ve not heard that song then you’ve been living under a rock) but hey at least it won a BAFTA, at least How To Train Your Dragon 2 was up (that film was awesome by the way) there were plenty more shocks but lets just say that opening number was the best (Jack Blacks part was awesome)

Here is a list of all the other nominees and winners http://oscar.go.com/nominees if your interested in having a look.

And that was my opinion on the Oscars this year I hope you enjoyed it and let me know what you thought of them, did you get your predictions right or wrong, did your favourite film win or lose, let me know I would love to hear from you until next time catch you later.
