I only saw Hidden Figures, Lalaland, and Manchester by the Sea. I liked Hidden Figures the best, but I am also a math nerd. I think Casey Affleck did a great job in Manchester by the Sea though.
Yay! So glad someone started a thread. Just getting good home now, so I hope to turn on the red carpet as soon as dinner is done. We try and see every best picture winner and most of the major categories, but I have a feeling that might change after this year (first time parents). Anyway, I think La La Land will take all of the awards, although I liked Moonlight the best. I think Hidden Figures would've run away with it if it was any other year. Viola Davis better win. Anyway, enjoy the show, ladies!
Agree on Taraji. The hair, the necklace, the midnight blue almost black velvet, the slit and neckline. She is stunning in the most understated but yet completely show stopping way.
I saw LalaLand and Lion. You guys. I had such an ugly cry during Lion. Highly recommend it but maybe during a less hormonal time... although my DH cried openly too soooooooooo yeah. There's probably no hope.
I am rooting for Lin-Manuel Miranda because Moana I HAVE seen.
This. Twice. And listen to the soundtrack every day. My two year old: "Can I have Moana songs, mama?" And then he tells me to stop singing.
I want to see Hidden Figures, because of math! And Moonlight because of Mahershala Ali. I know nothing else about the movie, but he was amazing in Luke Cage.
@Mother0fDragons I love both of those movies. Moonlight is just very different in subject matter than anything I've ever seen, and it is strange and moving and beautifully done.

The fashion! I love to see what everyone is wearing.

Also, totally grossed out by Casey Affleck.
But, yay Viola!
