True Detective is on.  I'm guessing most people are switching.  Hopefully they don't make Matt pull double duty and accept his award at the same time his show is on.

They definitely had McConaughey present this category just on the off-chance he got to say "Hublot".

Are they having teleprompter issues tonight? Everyone is stumbling over lines.

I love when the smaller category winners get to speak, so much more authentic.

Ellen wasn't funny, Seth MacFarlane was way better last year.

 

Not surprised by Leto's win at all.  LGBT stuff is major Oscar bait.

Ellen was hilarious in the opening. Timing is everything is comedy, and she's always had that as a stand up comic.

I thought she was OK. Especially considering the reason she's there is because she's not going to offend ANYONE.

You mean other than Buster's woman?

Leto is 42. 42! He doesn't look anywhere near that old. His mom looks good for however old she is too.<br />

Can we get bored, crotchety Harrison Ford back? I mean, Tyler Perry? Really?

 

Then again, he's probably producing.

I've used them before, they're usually pretty good. I'm guessing it's a traffic issue. It'll be back.

The U2 song is nothing special. I feel pretty confident in saying it would not have been nominated if written and performed by a no name artist.<br />

No surprise Gravity is sweeping the technical awards.  It actually deserves to win those, it was an impressive achievement from purely that respect.

12 Years A Slave deserves all the awards. Lupita was amazing.

I want to dislike Ellen, but I can't. That's how I know she is pretty good.

Not just tonight, but in general.
