Pierre 10,480 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 For the awards-obsessed editors of Gold Derby, the Oscars are like every Christmas, birthday and wedding all rolled into one... Below, our collective thoughts on the highs, lows and WTF moments from Sunday's 88th annual Academy Awards. GOOD Excellent presenters were Tina Fey/Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling/Russell Crowe, and Louis C.K. Loved how the acting awards were presenting from the camera movements to the giant photo backdrops on the stage. - Chris Beachum Lady Gaga brought the house down with her stirring performance of "Til it Happens to You." She's performed it repeatedly throughout the season, and this was the most emotionally stirring she's ever been. - Daniel Montgomery Surprises galore! Who saw "Ex Machina" for Visual Effects! Rylance pulling it out in Supporting Actor! Congrats Tom! You were right about "Spotlight"! - Amanda Spears BAD My heart told me that “The Revenant,” Sylvester Stallone (“Creed”) and Lady Gaga (“Til It Happens to You”) were all locks, but I should have known not to trust my heart after it failed me last year when I went with “Boyhood” over “Birdman.” Ugh. Stupid heart. LEO!!! And Chris Rock’s monologue. That is it. - Marcus Dixon Lady Gaga completely blew me away and her performance was one of the best I've seen at the Oscars in a very long time, so it seemed that the Best Song category was locked up for her and for perennial bridesmaid Diane Warren. For "Til it Happens to You" to lose was just unacceptable. - RobLicuria. After Lady Gaga's extraordinary performance, Best Song went to ... Sam Smith. It was a disappointing anti-climax, though Smith gave a touching acceptance speech better than his actual performance of his winning song, "Writing's on the Wall." - Daniel Montgomery Best Song?!? Why couldn't they get this right? And to the Academy when you are trying to be more inclusive this includes women and the performance of Earned It was sexist and against what your trying to accomplish by bring more inclusive to minorities and women. - Amanda Spears Sorry Sam Smith, but Dianne Warren and Lady Gaga really deserved it. - Zach Laws FULL ARTICLE: http://www.goldderby.com/news/11903/oscar-snubs-surprises-2016-lady-gaga-sylvester-stallone-oscars-surprises-academy-awards.html ❝Is not blue, not turquoise, not lapis.
