It was awful, problems after problems. Got repetitive fast. And Sandra Bullock was whiny and annoying. I give it a 3 out of 10.

Wait, seriously?

I already said that I haven't seen most of the best pictures, so it's not like I'm saying it should have won it all. But the hate for the movie to me is just a bunch of hipster BS.

How is Gravity NOT an innovative movie? It didn't follow a standard plot template. It was every bit about the experience just as it was the movie. In its effort to become as realistic as possible, it actually got a lot of things right about being an astronaut. It had a TWO person cast. I mean, when's the last time you saw a best picture movie that had that few people in it? The Pianist?

Again, you don't have to masturbate to the movie and you don't even have to enjoy it. But come the **** on, it's not innovative? Some of the people on Twitter have been acting like the movie may as well have been ****ing Pacific Rim.

Mathew McConaughey gave the best acceptance speech of the night, very genuine and inspiring.

If he keeps hanging out with Martin Scorsese he'll never win one.

The Oscars are an event for single ladies and gay men to have a party, so who cares?!?
