lol, he took the snub way too personally

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

You were the bomb in Phantoms, yo!

 

[ToxicAdam]

I think Ben knows there is going to be huge backlash to his movie now. Shame because it is a solid flick.

 

[Quick]

JAMIE FOXX'S DAUGHTER SIGHTING.

 

[Ithil]

It's not bad, people just hate that it's another Hollywood patting itself on the back Oscar bait material film

This term means nothing by now.

 

[JABEE]

ADRIAN!!!!!!

 

[Matrix]

He slowed himself down a little, but god damn :O lol

 

[Oersted]

Is Argo even that good?

What everyone will say: Good, but not best picture good.

 

[ari]

Ben affleck should have just gotten a nom as best director. Made no sense when looking back on it.

Also, Affleck career is simple amazing. What a fucking turnaround.

 

[VeryGooster]

Wow, what did Argo do to this board's breakfast cereal? Go Affleck.

"Snooch to the nooch!"

 

[Brinbe]

Almost every one of those other movies will be more memorable than Argo years from now.

Get the fuck off the stage ya drunk

 

[GhostWriter24]

Awesome, awesome speech.

 

[criesofthepast]

The first producer who spoke was an asshat. You can tell Ben didn't enjoy that dude talking.

Good speech Ben!

 

[Salsa]

that was real as fuck

 

[Hamlet]

pretty decent speech from Ben

 

[nilbog21]

Nice speech !

 

[fleck0]

Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms.

 

[Bro Space]

all I gotta say is argo fuck family guy...

 

[Reiko]

Jaws has put the fear of god into Ben Affleck.

lol

 

[Joe]

if ben affleck was ever "knocked down" in the past 15 years then i am already dead.

 

[cj_iwakura]

"fuck jay and silent bob, fuck them up their stupid ass"

A Jay and Silent Bob movie?

Who'd pay to see that?

 

[IC_Champion]

A film about Hollywood wining the BP; it's shades of The artist all over again. Predictable Oscars are predictable.

 

[Jarmel]

Should have got Ben for Episode 7. Rates going up!

 

[petethepanda]

Argo was alright, glad for Affleck though.

 

[Colonel Nasty]

Im gonna make a movie about movies. Ill probably win.

 

[AlexBasch]

It's not bad, people just hate that it's another Hollywood patting itself on the back Oscar bait material film

I see, thanks.

Need to watch it, it got me curious at least.

 

[kingslunk]

I wanted Ben Affleck to yell MATT DAMON!!!

 

[Zeliard]

Man how awesome would it be if Damon came running out with the real envelope?

That would have been the finest moment in the history of television.

 

[Ithil]

Saving Private Ryan came out in 98? That was the last time.

Eh? Spielberg won for that film.

 

[arts&crafts]

Good.

Shit film.

draaammmaaa, I thought it was better then Argo, not that Argo was bad, just not best picture good.

 

[Hours Left]

Wasn't really invested in the movies this year, so I'm indifferent mostly to the winners.

As for the show itself? One of the worst Oscars in recent memory. Get it together next year please.

 

[t-ramp]

GET HER OFF THE FUCKING STAGE!

 

[pargonta]

did you really just roll ads before saying goodnight... what the fuck

 

[JJDinomite]

It's a Fargo rip-off.

 

[Kud Dukan]

Oh god she is back.

 

[Reiko]

More meta going on. lol

 

[RSTEIN]

Whatever the Oscars don't matter they're irrelevant no one cares it doesn't matter.

Also fuck the Academy I'm so angry this sucks I'm furious.

One of the best GAF posts ever.

 

[jacobs34]

Happy for Argo. I really enjoyed it.

 

[Duxxy3]

First time in DECADES a movie wins Best Picture and not getting nominated for Best Director.

Will go down in history for sure.

Affleck not getting nominated for director is possibly the biggest snub in my lifetime.

 

[Trurl]

Why do they always pull this shit with Ang Lee?

Argo is 2013's Crash.

No way. Crash is so pretentious that it's uncomfortable to watch. Argo is a solid and satisfying film except for a final act that pushes the suspense to the point of being silly.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Who is Kristen chenowth and why is abc trying to convince me she's a star?

 

[Incendiary]

I thought that was a pretty classy speech by Affleck. Well done. He deserves it, he's a good guy.

Is this the first time in a long while that the Best Picture winner didn't get the most awards total?

 

[cj_iwakura]

Wow. Salt mine incoming.

 

[nick nacc]

Hahaha

 

[Javier]

Saving Private Ryan came out in 98? That was the last time.

Saving Private Ryan won Best Director, but lost Best Picture to Shakespeare in Love.

Argo won Best Picture but wasn't nominated for Director at all.

 

[Fjordson]

Really enjoyed Argo. Awesome how Affleck has turned into such a solid director.

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

Fargo should have won.

 

[MIMIC]

LOL

 

[Gorillaz]

This musical is the definition of getting dick slapped

 

[harSon]

I'm glad Life of Pi had so much success with awards and at the box office. Maybe Hollywood will take note of the fact that people are more than willing to watch films with non-white actors.
