Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Because books.

I was...pleasantly not as horrified as I expected to be by MacFarlane's opening act.

Exactly! I was preemptively in the hall, but I didn't need to be.

Also, Charlize Theron dancing was delightful. Channing Tatum looked a little heavy on his feet, though.

Ok, being played off with the music from Jaws. Genius.

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

Oh whew! Everyone on my FB thought it was the worst opening they'd ever seen, and I was getting worried that I was the only person who didn't think it was terrible at all.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Some of McFarlane's jokes are uncomfortable clunkers, but hell - like that's never happened before.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I thought it was awkward as fuck. If William Shatner improves things, they were pretty sorry for me. The dancing was the best part--I saw Tatum fumble his hands a little, but his feet looked fine at least as far as I was following. The dancing and the innocuous songs were good, but very indistinct.

I find Seth has also a very indistinct voice. I'm never going to know that's him.

Poor Hobbit. Between 48fps and live singing their makeup didn't stand a chance.

So far I feel the ceremony's only been funny a couple of times, and it was mostly Melissa deadpanning. But I'm way OTT in love with her, so perspective probably lost for all time.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Obviously Amy Poehler and Tina Fey need to tag team this next year.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Yeah, I didn't like Seth's opening at all and I kind of want him to disappear for the rest of the Oscars. I hadn't paid *much* attention to him except to know "Family Guy" ain't my thing.

Now I hate him.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am watching House of Cards, and I am wondering why all the good shows lately are about reprehensible people.

I want Ellen to do it again.

Good people don't make those interesting bad choices which are fun to dramatize, cf., Richard III.
