Haven't seen it but I've heard there isn't a lot of, like, plot.

There is baseball, and occasionally there are other things of note

Yea...I think it's a never before done and likely never will be done again movie...its groundbreaking.

But I also heard its boring as hell.

Yea but I don't think he carries himself as a great host either.

I don't really like Ellen but Ellen was a stand up comedian. She has a different type of presence about her.

And yes, I know NPH has been on Broadway but this is different.

Amy Schumer is doing the mtv movie awards. Now, I don't have any desire to watch those and haven't ever...but her hosting it makes me want to watch it. Not sure I will but that makes me consider it.

Someone like Carrell would be great...Jim Carrey would probably be good.

Fallon would probably be great but ABC won't put him on.

I think it's up to the Academy, ABC didn't stop Letterman from hosting.

I guess Linklater should've taken 20 years to make his movie.

Birdman was very good definitely check it out.

I thought Boyhood had it but glad Birdman won. It wasn't just the theater/ acting stuff that gave it an edge it was also very current for the state of Hollywood and it was well acted and the direction was excellent.

I liked Sniper and Whiplash more, but feel good about Birdman winning.
I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

I'm more surprised by Best Actor than Best Picture honestly.

Keaton would have been the feel good winner, but Redmayne deserved it.
