Welcome everyone to our annual Oscar chat session!

<crickets>

Okay, I started it an hour earlier this year because the actual show didn't run too long over the last years. So we got an hour of red carpet nonsense to gossip about.

steelersquirrel

WASSSSUP MY INTERNET FRIENDS!!!

@NapoleonWilson I am here for Oscar chat!!!

Napoleon Wilson

Wuuut! Really?

steelersquirrel

YES!!!

Napoleon Wilson

Woot! \o/

steelersquirrel

Are you going to gossip about the red carpet crap with me? ;)

Napoleon Wilson

00:17

Possibly. But, in contrast to you I don't know any of that celebrity nonsense.

steelersquirrel

I don’t know that much either...

I just ask Alexa everything. Lol

Napoleon Wilson

I see.

steelersquirrel

My friend had her baby!!!

Napoleon Wilson

Can you do anything by yourself anymore?

steelersquirrel

...

I have been knee deep in little ankle biters for a week. Hehehehe!

Napoleon Wilson

00:22

@steelersquirrel What friend and what baby?

steelersquirrel

OMG! I told you that I was off this past week to help them. The Broncos/Harry Potter friends

Napoleon Wilson

Well, I know you took their kid, yes.

steelersquirrel

That’s why I took him, because they had another baby. The one that they weren’t planning for. Lol

So...he’s 2 years old and he’s like a little tape recorder. I slipped and said “shit” and he says it all of the time now. Argh!

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, right, I remember. The lesbians who accidentally got pregnant. ;-)

steelersquirrel

my friend was like...seriously? Hehehehe!

@NapoleonWilson Yep!

Napoleon Wilson

00:33

@steelersquirrel They should count themselves lucky that this was the worst thing you said.

steelersquirrel

OMG! My friend said the exact same thing!! Hehehehe!

Napoleon Wilson

I don't actually know who moderates the Oscars this year.

steelersquirrel

01:00

I don’t think anyone is. Everyone is too afraid

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, apparently. Odd!

Rihanna is nice, though.

steelersquirrel

It’s a hard gig. Pretty much anyone who does it gets picked apart.

Napoleon Wilson

(Unless that isn't actually Rihanna and I'm embarrassing myself.)

steelersquirrel

I don’t even have it on yet. When does it start?

Napoleon Wilson

Uh...now?

steelersquirrel

01:02

Wait. Wut? Okay.

Argh!

This is stupid

Napoleon Wilson

Aww, why?

steelersquirrel

That’s not Rihanna. Rihanna is way hotter than that chick

Napoleon Wilson

Yeah, I realized it too later. It also wasn't her voice.

steelersquirrel

Steve Martin is awesome

Napoleon Wilson

And an awesome banjo player, too.

steelersquirrel

01:12

lol

Brad Pitt is gonna win

Told ya!

Napoleon Wilson

Your'sns bes rightsie!

steelersquirrel

;)

A J

@steelersquirrel really? Wow!

So what'd I miss?

Napoleon Wilson

Not much so far, it's the first award.

A J

It's 7 am in the morning so I can't really turn on the TV.

@NapoleonWilson Alright!

steelersquirrel

01:18

AJ! Wassssup!

A J

My tensions are at its peak

As the time comes near

steelersquirrel

Exciting!!

Just don’t let me around your kid or she will be swearing in no time ;)

Napoleon Wilson

Understandably. Who wouldn't?

steelersquirrel

Hehehehe!

A J

Lol

steelersquirrel

01:27

I’m the worst influence

A J

steelersquirrel

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, a Frozen thing?

steelersquirrel

Frozen performance. Bathroom break. Ugh

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, apparently a best song nomination.

A J

01:30

Gonna take shower and will resume watching Oscars later

Napoleon Wilson

Performed by Adele Dazeem herself.

A J

BRB

@NapoleonWilson Adele? Is she the one who sung Skyfall title song?

Napoleon Wilson

Not quite. ;-)

A J

Ohh

Napoleon Wilson

It's actually Idina Menzel. It was a joke about the thing where Travolta totally misspoke her name to the Oscars a few years ago.

(The same thing the presenter made a joke about, too.)

steelersquirrel

01:36

It flew over my head. Lol

Napoleon Wilson

Keanu!

steelersquirrel

Love Keanu!

Napoleon Wilson

12 mins ago, by Napoleon Wilson

Understandably. Who wouldn't?

Apparently John Wick 3 is on Amazon Prime now.

Oh, Parasite, another film I totally should have watched.

steelersquirrel

John Wick 3 sucked

Napoleon Wilson

Hmpf, okay.

steelersquirrel

01:43

Sorry. I was just hugely disappointed because the 1st one was so frigging awesome

Napoleon Wilson

Yeah, I think the second one already wasn't as good.

steelersquirrel

totally!

Wait. What is this award for?

Napoleon Wilson

Adapted screenplay.

steelersquirrel

Meh

Napoleon Wilson

Who's the guy next to Shia LaBeuf? He seems disabled, what's the story behind that?

steelersquirrel

01:50

I have no idea. Yeah. He obviously has a developmental disability.

I hope you have tomorrow off...

Napoleon Wilson

Why?

But yes, I do.

steelersquirrel

Because you’re up so late, silly bean!

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, it's okay, it's probably over in about 30 minutes.

steelersquirrel

wut? Doesn’t it have like a million more hours to go?

Napoleon Wilson

I'm not entirely serious, don't worry.

But it's become shorter and paler over the years.

At least my drink is empty already.

steelersquirrel

01:57

That’s why I haven’t watched it in a while

get another drink!

Napoleon Wilson

I willsies!

steelersquirrel

woot!

Margot Robbie looks smokin’!

Napoleon Wilson

You realize that now? ;-)

steelersquirrel

I turned it on late.

Napoleon Wilson

She's been in da business fo years!

steelersquirrel

02:00

I mean she looks exceptionally smokin’ tonight!!

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, I haven't seen her tonight yet.

steelersquirrel

I just saw her in the crowd

I love her. She’s one of my girl crushes

another performance. Ugh

Napoleon Wilson

Yeah, and what I've heard of her in interviews and stuff, she'd be totally your kind of girl anyway.

steelersquirrel

Right?

She’s super awesome! I would totally become gay just to be her girlfriend. Hehehehe!

then I would totally start laughing if we had to have sex because I totally wouldn’t know what to do. Lol

Napoleon Wilson

...

steelersquirrel

02:04

OMG!!! THE THREE DOTS!!! YESSSSS!!

Ugh. brb

Did I miss anything?

Napoleon Wilson

Documentary and documentary short, so...not really.

steelersquirrel

Awesome

Napoleon Wilson

Yes.

steelersquirrel

02:23

Woot!

Q: Is the drug used to stop infection in The Rock real?

In The Rock (1996), Nicolas Cage used an injection to stop himself from being infected by the deadly virus. Is that a real drug in real life or just some fictional creation? How does it stop virus infection in the movie?

steelersquirrel

OMG! I totally watched that You show on Netflix. It’s super awesome!

the main guy reminds me of you.

Napoleon Wilson

I certainly think I heard of athropin in other contexts.

steelersquirrel

I’m not saying you’re a stalker, but he’s super adorable. He’s you with dark hair.

Napoleon Wilson

@steelersquirrel Visually or characterally?

steelersquirrel

02:26

Visually! Did you not hear anything I just said? :P

Napoleon Wilson

Well, you didn't say much about his looks.

steelersquirrel

I said that he’s you with dark hair

Napoleon Wilson

Dude looks like a random actor guy with black hair. Where exactly would I be there?

steelersquirrel

I don’t know. He just reminds me of you...

Napoleon Wilson

Hmm, okay. ;-)

steelersquirrel

02:28

He just reminds me of you, minus the stalker thing. Lol

Napoleon Wilson

You're missing all the awesome songs!

steelersquirrel

OMG. They did the tiny dancer bit from Almost Famous!

Napoleon Wilson

Wow, is that actually Marshal Mathers?

steelersquirrel

OMFG! OMFG! OMFG! Em I frigging em!!!

Napoleon Wilson

That's an Eminem song I actually really liked. The movie was really good, too.

steelersquirrel

02:31

EMINEM!!!

Best part of this sucky show by far!!!

my name is what? My name is what? You go on Slim Shady!

Napoleon Wilson

But, like, why?

steelersquirrel

why what?

Napoleon Wilson

Why Eminem?

steelersquirrel

uhm....because he’s awesome. Duh.

Napoleon Wilson

It's cool. But I don't get why.

He's been on the news, like, 10 years ago?

steelersquirrel

02:35

And this show is boring and lame, so they needed something awesome. Lol

maybe he’s prepping for a comeback

Napoleon Wilson

Ohsns!

steelersquirrel

ohhhh...Salma Hayek. Hot!

Napoleon Wilson

And Oscar Isaac! Cool!

steelersquirrel

I don’t know who he is

Napoleon Wilson

Nrgh!

steelersquirrel

02:38

sorry. Who is he?

Napoleon Wilson

The gay guy from the new Star Wars.

Ankit Sharma

Hello @steelersquirrel

Napoleon Wilson

And the star of A Most Violent Year.

steelersquirrel

Is he really gay in Star Wars?

@AnkitSharma ANKIT!!!

Napoleon Wilson

Probably not. But it was a nice possibility from Episode 7. But then they came with this stupid girl for Finn in the next film. Don't know about the last one.

Ankit Sharma

02:39

@steelersquirrel everybody is straight in Disney 😂

@steelersquirrel wassup. I even wanted to tell you about Amber Drama

Napoleon Wilson

I should totally have watched 1917.

Or Star Wars 9. Or Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

A J

Sound Mixing goes to 1917

I just watched Knives Out

I couldn't find any questions to ask for the challenge

steelersquirrel

I watched Once upon a Time in Hollywood and the Irishman

@AnkitSharma Amber drama?

Napoleon Wilson

Who's that, Randy Newman?

steelersquirrel

yes

A J

02:43

I think so

steelersquirrel

He loves L.A. ;)

@AJ Ohhhh... I totally want to see that. Is it good?

Napoleon Wilson

That's a really neat song, though. (The LA thing, not this one.)

steelersquirrel

I love that song!

You and I need to hook up, Napoleon :P

Napoleon Wilson

...

I'm all for it.

steelersquirrel

Hehehehe!

A J

02:47

@steelersquirrel Yeah. Seems like Daniel got a new series to act in after James Bond. They are planning a sequel of it

@steelersquirrel oooohhhh

steelersquirrel

Awesome! I can’t wait to see it

Ankit Sharma

@steelersquirrel amber heard recording where she admit hitting on Johnny Dep

steelersquirrel

@AnkitSharma Really? OMG!

Napoleon Wilson

I'll probably go see a movie tomorrow. Apparently they got 1917 at 19:40 and Knives Out at 13:40.

Ankit Sharma

@steelersquirrel now many people are hating Amber

steelersquirrel

02:49

who is this guy now?

Napoleon Wilson

Or Star Wars at 11:40, but that could get difficult.

Ankit Sharma

Looks like zero participation for oscar for me . Not Seen any movie from it and too drowsy now to watch show

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, I actually muted it to listen to I Love LA on YouTube. What's happening?

steelersquirrel

@AnkitSharma OMG. Why haven’t I heard about this? Pun intended :P

Ankit Sharma

Lol

steelersquirrel

02:50

@NapoleonWilson some random guy rapping a recap of the show. Lol

A J

I had planned to watch 3 Oscars nominee movies on weekend but ended up watching only one.

Napoleon Wilson

But there's your favourite guy Will Ferrel.

steelersquirrel

@NapoleonWilson Knives out! Knives out!

Will Ferrell!!

Napoleon Wilson

Or maybe both!

I haven't been to the cinema for almost a 2-digit number of months, I guess. :'(

steelersquirrel

join the club. But, I’m going a lot this year!

Bill and ted sequel, Coming to America sequel

Napoleon Wilson

02:53

What's that, cinematography? That's definitely the category for the one-shot movie.

steelersquirrel

there was one more...now I forgot

Napoleon Wilson

@steelersquirrel Yeah...I don't care one bit about these. ;-)

steelersquirrel

Pfft!

A J

1917 would be my guess for best film award

Napoleon Wilson

@steelersquirrel Ferris Bueller's Day Off...the retirement home?

steelersquirrel

02:54

once upon a time in Hollywood is my guess

@NapoleonWilson ohhhhh...snap!

A J

Hmm

Napoleon Wilson

Don't just say the names, say the effin' film title!

steelersquirrel

I need to go on TMZ and read about this Amber Heard thing now.

Napoleon Wilson

Nrgh!

steelersquirrel

Johnny Depp is gonna be all...see! I told you bitches that she was batshit crazy. Lol

Napoleon Wilson

02:57

Wow, Wikipedia is really fast.

steelersquirrel

why are you replacing your ‘A”s with “N”s now?

Napoleon Wilson

@steelersquirrel Good thing for her she's got enough room on the hot-crazy-scale still. ;-)

steelersquirrel

you used to say “Argh”

@NapoleonWilson true

Napoleon Wilson

@steelersquirrel "Argh" is more angry annoyed, "Nrgh" is more eye-rolling annoyed.

steelersquirrel

thanks for the clarification ;)

Did Tom Hanks just say that he was Spartacus?

Napoleon Wilson

03:01

See, I knew atropine exists.

Also, my drink is empty again.

steelersquirrel

Meh

fill up your drink!

Napoleon Wilson

I already did, but it's a different one yet again.

If that's another best song nomination, it's the best one so far.

Chat something!

steelersquirrel

Something!

Napoleon Wilson

Woot! \o/

That's Ray Romano's actual voice?

steelersquirrel

03:17

Rick Baker is gonna win. ;)

Napoleon Wilson

He wasn't nominiated!

steelersquirrel

I know. That’s the joke

Napoleon Wilson

You're stuck in the past, wake up!

steelersquirrel

OMG. He acknowledged Rick Baker. Did you hear that?

snap!

Napoleon Wilson

Not really, I was busy chatting. ;-)

steelersquirrel

03:19

pfft! Rewind it!

Napoleon Wilson

I can't, I disconnected my HDD from the TV.

SO Honeyland is nominated for foreign language film and documentary?

But of course it's Parasite.

Oh, they renamed it. That's neat.

steelersquirrel

OMG!! ELTON!

Napoleon Wilson

Look, it's Elton John, why aren't you celebrating!

steelersquirrel

I AM!!!!

Napoleon Wilson

Woot! \o/

steelersquirrel

03:29

I love him so much!

Napoleon Wilson

More than Marshall Mathers?

steelersquirrel

Yes!

Elton John and Bob Seger are my absolute favorite!

Napoleon Wilson

Also, my drink is empty again.

steelersquirrel

I can tell by your spelling. Lol

Napoleon Wilson

It doesn't count when I correct it immediately.

Gena Davis still exists, too?

steelersquirrel

03:38

Geena Davis? Where is she?

Napoleon Wilson

She was mentioned.

steelersquirrel

Ugh. The whole woman thing. I’m over it

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, da scores!

steelersquirrel

not all women are superheroes. Just sayin’

scoreage!

Ankit and AJ totally ditched us!

Napoleon Wilson

Truesns.

Jayoker. C'est kinda neat score that.

And a woman, too. Thank god.

steelersquirrel

03:44

Right? Lol

I guess Men can’t speak up about music. Lol

Q: Dog-Faced Pony Soldier?

According to the Washington Post, Joe Biden recently (jokingly) called a voter a "lying dog-faced pony soldier". He attributes the quote to a John Wayne movie. Is there such a John Wayne quote? Note: A Slate article suggests there is not and gives its own theory as to where this quote comes fr...

dialogue john-wayne

steelersquirrel

ELTON WILL WIN!!

Napoleon Wilson

@MovieReel Oh, for fuckin'...

steelersquirrel

YESSSSSSS!!!

Napoleon Wilson

The racism thing was a nice song, too, though.

steelersquirrel

03:47

meh. Nobody can top Elton!

Napoleon Wilson

I guess.

A J

Elton John!

steelersquirrel

YAY!

A J

@steelersquirrel not really

steelersquirrel

High points so far: Eminem and Elton John. No contest. No matter what Napoleon says ;)

@AJ Well...that’s what I would be saying :P

Napoleon Wilson

03:50

I didn't say anything against them. Why are you picking at me? :'(

steelersquirrel

OMG. I’m just playing with you, silly! Play! Play! Play!

Napoleon Wilson

I know, duhsns!

Wow, the thunder and rainstorm is so loud now I can't actually hear the TV!

steelersquirrel

You are going to miss a non female get the best director. Lol

Napoleon Wilson

Well, I can recognize Spike Lee at least.

And it's Parasite again.

steelersquirrel

who the hell is this guy?

seriously? Over Tarantino? Whatever.

Napoleon Wilson

03:53

It's da best film o' da year!

steelersquirrel

Never heard of it

#boycottoscars

Napoleon Wilson

@steelersquirrel Tarantino probably made a lot better films than that one, though. That would be kind of a life achievement award if he won it for that, same as with Leo. Yeah...he was nominated so often but never won, but this he ate a bison liver, so just give him that prize already!

steelersquirrel

Finally, a director I recognize

Napoleon Wilson

Oh, the dead thing!

steelersquirrel

the dead thing! Hahahaha!

What’s so great about this Billie Eillish person?

Napoleon Wilson

03:57

Wait, the in memoriam thing is the Billy Eilish performance? Now that's odd!

But Yesterday is a neat song indeed.

steelersquirrel

I don’t know what’s so awesome about her. I’m sick of hearing about her

Napoleon Wilson

I haven't really heard much about her, other than that she's apparently da next big thing.

steelersquirrel

Everyone constantly goes on about her. I’m over it

Napoleon Wilson

Now concentrate on the dead people!

Doris Day is among them.

Oh, John Singleton died too?

steelersquirrel

She needs to go hang out with Taylor Swift so that they can both annoy me together. Lol
