#Release the @mrv86 cut!
 
In all serious, glad to hear you had a good time. 

Streaming information from the latest bulletin (#3):
 
 
 

I'm in tears, finally I have access after months. For some reason I can only enter the site from my phone. Surely it must be a problem with my home internet connection. 

Hi, I am sorry I was unexpectedly busy in the recent period, but if I am willing to host Annual addition with Finale mid May if that is still okay with you guys.

I'm very late to the party, but I have to say that The Seed of the Sacred Fig is a great movie. I love Iranian movies and this is definitely in my top 5 (along with A Separation, The Salesman, Holy Spider and About Elly).

Pretty sure I just heard the whole of  scream with joy 

are my favorites for the time being.
 
 could definitely grow on me as well. There's very few songs I'd count out before I get the chance to see them during the live shows.  
 
P.S. "Baller"  would play at a trendy shop in LA, and I would enjoy it
 

Apparently there's only 6 runners left in the Barkleys, still on lap 2.

Came here to post the same thing 

It is time for the most insane athletics event of the year, the conch has been blown and by now the cigarette has been lit, it's Barkleys time
 
 
 

Not sure what the best thread is for this kind of post, but I'm putting it here for now...
 
In the blur that was Paris 2024, I never realized how high Victor Le Masne set the bar with this song. It grew on me quickly after the reveal, but I never had much time to digest it until recently.

Also, I was thinking about how creatively/artistically progressive Paris 2024 was tonight. I'm genuinely curious to see what its creative legacy will be in the coming years. 

Nope, Aline Rocha got gold in the sitting sprint two years ago, she is the one who wrote the history
 

Well, let's follow the rules in the absence of @OlympicIRL
 
I believe @Wanderer was interested in the being the next host, as the  jury didn't want to host two contests in a row. Let's give him until Friday to respond in one way or another.
 
If we haven't heard from @Wanderer by Friday, then perhaps it's time to extend hosting rights to @Belle 
 
If @Belle is unable to step in as host, then we begin the bidding process for interested juries and go from there.

In an underwhelming film season, I saw myself mostly satisfied with where the awards went tonight. I'm just hopeful I find more to be excited and passionate about this year.

You, @Pasolini and I are competing for most wrong at this point

I was already expecting Anora to win best picture going in, but at this point giving the editing win it's hard to see how anyone else wins.

Worth mentioning that Flow is the first ever Oscar win for a Latvian film!
