NPH won't host again, so no.

I think you missed the joke.

Possibly, I didn't see the Bafta so I don't know if Fry bombed. :(

Can we all agree that Lego won the Oscars though?

The joke was that they are both white men and are (gay) married.  So they represent a return to old fashioned values.

Heh, wasn't aware of that. Greg Berlanti, of Arrow and Flash fame, was the head writer of the show.

By the way, with BAFTA being hosted by Stephen Fry and Oscars by NPH, can we safely say film making industry proves once again that it is so conservative, only a married white man can host it?  :(

Ellen DeGeneres hosted last year and in 2007.

Oh I see now that he changed his post. What I commented on was about gays cornering the market on hosting.

Selma should win, because the Democrats need it to maintain the race baiting going.

Shall we put some money on it?  Because I am feeling Birdman.

You got it. I predict Selma will win.
What do you want to bet?
And when is the Oscars thing?

Just playing with you Siege.  The Oscars were last night and Birdman won.

So Birdman won.  Any thoughts?  I didn't see it.

One of the few times I've agreed with the Best Picture winner of the year.  :cheers:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
