Not sure why hair and makeup are in one category and sound is in two.

I have almost seen every nominee except Mad Max. It looks like I have to fix that immediately.

Hair and makeup is credited together and sound editing and sound mixing aren't.

I think Sound Mixing is for the overall sound mix (dialogue, score, effects) while Sound Editing is for the actual sound effects and their design.

Playing music that has nothing to do with the presenters keeps throwing me off.

Cool seeing a $15m movie beat the big dogs in VFX.

6 Oscars to one film in only an hour and a half. That's some kind of record, isn't it? There's no way any other film can catch up, right?

It's been almost 8 minutes since we've had a racist joke. What's up?

Nobody can't possibly find the girl scout stunt funny.

Best year for animated features in quite some time; they can't go wrong with this one.

This reminds me that I need to catch Anomalisa. A Charlie Kaufman animated film is something I must see.

I loved Inside Out - it was my favorite film of the year, let alone favorite animated feature. That said, Anomalisa was a spectacle that got me thinking for weeks after watching it - I'm a little sad it didn't get more recognition.

That being said, it wasn't going to stand against a Pixar film that was actually great.
