As he presented the award for Best Cinematographer with Amy Adams, Bill Murray snuck in a classy, touching tribute to his longtime collaborator Harold Ramis, whom he'd feuded with for the decade before Ramis' death last week.

Lupita Nyong'o's acceptance speech for Best Supporting Actress paid touching, heartfelt tribute to her 12 Years a Slave director Steve McQueen, her co-stars, and her family. Along with Jared Leto's, it was one of the night's highlights.

In the most surreal moment of the night so far, Matthew McConaughey presented Best Animated Short Film and Best Animated Feature Film alongside Kim Novak. In their seemingly off-the-cuff exchange (during which McConaughey mentioned her role in Vertigo, much to the audience's relief because: Oh right, that's what she was in!) they had as much chemistry as two people speaking different languages to each other. Novak seemed lit or maybe she's just 81. Hard to say.

After winning Best Supporting Actor for Dallas Buyers Club, Jared Leto gave a heartwarming acceptance speech during which he thanked or mentioned...well, pretty much everyone: his mom, his brother, Ellen, Matthew McConaughey, 30 Seconds to Mars, Focus Features, the "the dreamers" in Venezuela and Ukraine, and more.

The 2014 Academy Awards are upon us, and instead of going to a sophisticated viewing party with champagne and caviar, we've chosen to spend the awards with you, our readers. Who will walk away victorious, who will return to their fabulous mansions empty-handed, and who will fall over onstage?

Jennifer Lawrence will do anything for attention. She must be worried about losing her adorable klutz title to someone who falls over in pretty dresses even more often.

In case you were wondering what they're like.

Are you enjoying the Oscars from home, making the occasional snide comment about fashion while eating a snack? If so, Jimmy Kimmel has a message: "What's wrong with you?"

The biggest awards night of the year is upon us. But who cares about that? Far more important is the red carpet that directly precedes it. Who will wear something that is simply spectacular? Who will go down in history for wearing something that is spectacularly awful and bound to make you question your entire existence?

It's time to get your ballots ready, get drunk, and prepare to be bored for (at least) three hours on Sunday night during the 86th annual Academy Awards.

When your favorite film loses the Best Picture Oscar on Sunday night, don't be surprised. While it's no secret Academy voters aren't exactly the most fair or progressive bunch, it's always disheartening to be reminded of the fact that many Oscar voters—like many American voters, really—are bordering on senility, a little bit sexist, a lot a bit racist, and really just looking out for their own sexist, racist, and limited interests.

The list of Sunday's Oscar presenters has been released and it's definitely interesting. Featured presenters include Amy Adams, Angelina Jolie, Samuel L. Jackson, Bill Murray, Zac Efron, and Jessica Biel. Can you imagine getting an Oscar from the actress who is best known for being written off of 7th Heaven?

There is absolutely nothing cute about The Wolf of Wall Street or any other 2014 Oscar Best Picture nominees. Until now, that is.

Woody Allen's lawyers and friends are quick to argue that the latest round of child abuse accusations against the actor are perfectly timed to destroy what should have been a fruitful awards season. But the real truth is that these allegations, these stories, and Allen's history with young women have been a matter of public record for at least 20 years.

In light of the abuse allegations leveled against Woody Allen by his daughter Dylan Farrow in the New York Times, the Hollywood press immediately began showing sympathy for the those who have the most to lose in this awful situation: Cate Blanchett and Blue Jasmine's Oscar chances.

Jonah Hill was so desperate to work with Martin Scorsese on The Wolf of Wall Street, he apparently agreed to work for SAG minimums. In a film with a rumored budget of over $100 million, the Oscar-nominated Hill revealed on Tuesday that he earned only $60,000.

Meryl Streep was on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Monday morning discussing her 18^th Academy Award Nomination when she announced her friend Emma Thompson was "shockingly" left off the list of nominees for her work in Saving Mr. Banks.

Actor Chris Hemsworth and Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Cheryl Boone Isaacs woke up early Thursday morning to announce this year's Oscar nominations. But if you didn't set your alarm for 5:38 a.m. and 30 seconds PST to watch the incredibly boring live telecast, here's all you need to know: Tom Hanks and Oprah, both widely expected to receive acting nominations, were snubbed.

This year the Oscars will "honor big-screen real-life heroes, super heroes, popular heroes and animated heroes, both past and present, as well as the bold filmmakers who bring them to life," show producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron said in a news release. More proof that Hollywood loves a stupid theme party.
