The Official DIS Oscars LIVE Watch Party Thread!!! TONITE!

OK, that rendition of Diamonds are Forever was painful.

Okay, I'm gonna be in the "they should have got the original performers" camp for the Bond songs.

Did you guys just catch a glimpse of Ariana sitting in the front row in her lampshade dress?

I’m guessing she has to sit on the edge of the seat. I’d slide right off.

It looks like she's sitting near the end, near the aisle. Those could be the wheelchair accessible seats, where they can remove the seats easily. Maybe when they learned she'd be wearing such a wide dress, they removed one of the chairs and slid the one she's sitting on to have a wider distance between the chair arms, so she and that peplum could fit in.

Shirley Bassey did some of them, but I don't know what her voice is like these days. She's 88. I believe Adele sang Skyfall for the movie, so she would have been a possibility.

How is the show going?

 

[Nancy]

I was not impressed with any of the Bond songs.

 

[Imzadi]

Good Morning! I didn't think you'd be able to attend from Australia this morning. The show started an hour earlier than usual. You were probably still asleep.

 

[Nancy]

How is the show going?

Pretty good for an awards show.

I keep figuring I'll get around to trying for lottery tickets and then never make it to the theatre for the lotteries.

For the movie, I suspect it's one of those movies that should be seen on the big screen. That it loses something on a smaller screen. But, then I got so busy when it was showing here, I never got around to seeing it.

Still worth seeing it on the big screen. My daughter and I saw it twice and loved it.

How is the show going?

The opening has been the best so far.

How is the show going?

Some awkward host moments, but I do like Conan overall. The opening Wicked songs by Arianna Grande and Cynthia Arivo was wonderful. So far, no surprises as to winners.

Good afternoon!

I'm usually working these days so I miss out on all the fun and awards season.
I didn't sleep well last night so I'm taking the rest of the afternoon to watch the Oscars so that I can fall asleep.

Hi Nancy. Always great to see you. One old timer to another.

 

[PrincessInOz]

I still haven’t seen Wicked :-(

And this is why I love the DisBoard!

I haven't either. It will start streaming soon.

Yes, I got teary-eyed for the opening number it was a tribute for Los Angeles Strong.

I'm sure Adele would have made time for the Oscars.

 

[PrincessInOz]

What the heck is Zoe wearing?

Good on her for the win, though.

Great!!! Sounds good. I will catch some highlights on YouTube

I'm sure I would also.

Anyone else even just a little bit misty from Zoe's "Mommy?"
