This is Ryan Gosling. He's very handsome. Do not look into his eyes.
That would explain MJ Fox being on like the 4th row.Brian Earl Spilner said:

So jealous of how Kimmel can come up with all those one liners off the top of his head.Aggies76 said:

He actually seems to have somewhat "stabilized", or kept the disease at bay a bit....at least since the last time I saw him on TV a couple of years ago. He was so good back in the day.Junkhead said:
Yikes. Michael J. Fox is in bad shape. The Parkinson's is doing a number on him.

I never agreed with the notion of La La Land being a hollywood circle jerk...mainly because I have see The Oscars before. I like a lot of the oscars, but I dont give a damn about speeches like this one by the president.

Yeah, and when you made that Dave Matthews comparison in the other thread, if I recall correctly, there were quite a few responses from people saying it was a terrible analogy.
The fact of the matter is that La La Land was made by a bunch of a young, outsider, New York filmmakers who went hat-in-hand all over town, trying to get it made, only to have it rejected time and again. "Hollywood" didn't get together to concoct some masturbation fest. And please tell me what about the movie shows "how great" Hollywood is? If anything, it's a movie about just how ruthless the business can be, and how much people have to compromise just to "make it" in the industry. It doesn't paint a pretty picture by any means, but still tries to find what joy there is in such a pursuit.
I wish you guys who constantly look to be offended by Hollywood in this manner knew just how insecure and uninformed you come across. If you want to hate the movie, fine. But hating it for these particular reasons is asinine.
Yeah, I don't care about the people who made it. I care about it's content. I can separate the actor/filmmaker from their product (Looking at you, Sean Penn). This movie was just a boring circle jerk. Just a step below Terrence Malick, the Bob Dylan of filmmaking.

Haven't looked at the video, but I'm still pretty confused why there's so much praise being heaped on La La Land. It's not a bad movie per se, but it's not that great either. It's just not very memorable, and no particular song or dance number stands out to me other than the last one in the observatory, and that's mostly due to the visuals and not the song or dance itself.
I wish Sing Street had gotten more love this year. I don't know who I'd like to see win BP, because I haven't seen most of the nominees. But I know that Sing Street is a movie I enjoyed a lot more than La La Land. And probably Arrival as well. (Though that is also not a movie I would consider a "masterpiece". Just a solid movie.)
I don't agree with half of these people, and find some of them just as annoying as you guys do. Still, I'm also trying to combat the ultra-cliched/stereotypical views so many here have of "Hollywood" in general.CorpsAg11 said:

The great irony is that the likely target of any celebrity political speeches is a celebrity whose political opinions they disagree with.
