Unless someone goes off the rails before it is over, this is one of the best Oscar shows in many, many years.

Howard Fineman had to tweet about the Oscars trying to make it about Obama - others on Twitter were not pleased....

#AcademyAwards show diversity, tolerance, cultural creativity of US in Obama Era. Hard power matters, per Putin, but Oscars r as powerful.

@howardfineman Sorry, but an awards show does little against determination of military power. Get your head out of your ass.

I just noticed this thread. I haven't been watching much of the Oscars, so missed quite a bit of good stuff.

My son had them play Wind Beneath My Wings as I walked down the aisle when he got married. Bette Middler can sing! She's not as homely now as she used to be. Must have had a do-over.

I was just going to say she has had a LOT of botox done of late.

She got a standing ovation, started to cry and say something, but got cut off.

I think I want to see Twelve Years a Slave - have a feeling it won't be an easy movie to watch

Appropriate that travolta introed the gayest song of the year

Interesting, because when he was introducing it I thought for the first time I can remember he really came across in that manner.
