The Official DIS Oscars LIVE WATCH PARTY Thread!!! TONITE!

[Imzadi]

The DIS Oscar LIVE Watch Party is Sunday nite! Everyone is invited. Newbies welcome! It's the last, longest, hopefully the best, live award show of the season.

This is when they put on the best dresses.

Or so they think.

There will be some speeches to laugh at, cry over, or be forced to sit through.
And this golden man award is handed out.

And new from 3 years ago: they may announce the wrong winner. . .

There is NO Host again. ( They really doing this to save money. )

You know the drill if you've attended before. Load up on munchies & drinks, wine & booze are welcome.

Including the Red Carpet, it's 6-1/2 hours depending on when you tune in and how long you stay. Feel free to drop in & out.

Start times:
East Coast (EST):
The Red Carpet starts at 5:00PM (EST) on E!

Canada:
Please check the channels & times above as the Red Carpet is on a different channel than the award show will be.
Red Carpet is on E!: Shaw Direct: Ch 168 (?)
Award Show is on ABC in the U.S. The show is live on both coasts, so either coast feed should work.

Australia: for Princess In Oz

& other Aussies

Monday morning: The Red Carpet starts at 9:00 am on E! (Although that means that the real red carpet will start at 9:30 am. So you can snooze a bit more. )
The Award Show is being telecast on Channel 7 at 12:00 pm. (Verified.)



This will be a NO SPELLING & GRAMMAR POLICE THREAD!
The Spelling Police will be off duty and possibly slurring their own typing by the end of the evening. Typos allowed!

And if your posts are still making sense by hour 3, you aren't sloshed enough. Or, we are as toasted as you are!

Let's have another fun evening!

 

[Imzadi]

A little heads up for newbies: The Red Carpet segment goes really quickly on this thread. People are typing like crazy all at the same time, seeing different dresses.

If you post something or ask a question and it seems to get ignored, you are NOT being ignored. Everyone is just watching, typing & posting so quickly before the dress goes off the screen. We do most of the reading, scrolling back & posting back to each others' comments during the COMMERCIALS! Your posts will get a response then.

Once the show starts, it slows down to a more comfortable pace. Just hang in with us! It's going to be a great evening.

I just watched the news.....longest red carpet...and those records Time to pull out my Monkees records if there has to be some breaking.

Anyhow...a note to all of young folks who wonder why senior citizen just don't get excited about the oscars......20 years ago my wife I would average 52 movies a year, have our own party, enter contests, make charts and our parents just didn't care....this year.....5 movies and Ford vs Ferrari is the only nomination we watched. So I apologize to all the senior citizens I offended 20 years....I get in now!!!

 

[TB'sWidow]

I love a good online Oscar party but since I'm hosting one IRL have fun wherever you are. Be back to Monday morning QB with notes in hand.

 

[Nancy]

I'll be here. May miss some of the red carpet. We have a hockey game at 3:00 so it just depends on what time we get home.

 

[Disneylover99]

I tried to sleep in today cause I knew tonight would be a late night. It didn’t work. But I’m going to try to stay up tonight. I’ll just suffer tomorrow. Lol.

You have a great time! Your hosting duties are more involved. You have to provide food & drinks for everyone. I get to tell everyone to stock up. And it's up to them to deal with food preferences & allergies.

 

[DisneyJamieCA]

I’ll be here! I may miss the E! Red Carpet coverage, but should be home in time for the ABC coverage and show.

[Disneylover99]

Just tuning in.
I like Giuliana’s red dress.

 

[PrincessInOz]

Here. Good morning everyone!

 

[PrincessInOz]

Just tuning in.
I like Giuliana’s red dress.

I just saw G. She actually looks very elegant in that red dress. It's beautiful and sparkly. Perfect for the red carpet.

I reckon she can take 20 lbs off me, though, and still look too thin.

She can take an additional 20 off of me too and still look fit. Lol.
