22 Oscar Tweets
Though liveblogging and livetweeting has its drawbacks -- I always miss something when i"m typing, Social Media has kept "events" in event status so we welcome it. Here are some tweets that had me screaming or thinking or nodding or LOLing on Oscar night and the morning after.... plus a couple from me because Michael Keaton thanks Narcisuss at the Indie Spirits so I'm allowed.

On Oscar Day I start rooting for chaos. What if Cooper wins Best Actor? What if Anderson wins Best Director? Release the hounds!

The IDA director started a revolution. Now people know nothing happens if you keep talking. He's the Katniss Everdeen of the 2015 Oscars.

I still think the sequel to The Theory of Everything should be Stephen Hawking playing Eddie Redmayne, struggling to make it as an actor.

Do you think part of Alexandre Desplat is super pissed that he was beaten by the rest of Alexandre Desplat?

Marion Cotillard has gone the occasional Cate Blanchett route: "Look at this absurd dress that I still look shit-hot in! Die, mere mortals."

Jennifer Lopez and Meryl Streep whooping together in support of Patricia Arquette's feminist speech will play forever on a loop in my heart

"Why [Fill In The Blank] Lost: They got fewer votes than the other person" just isn't a sexy enough headline I guess

Being an Oscar host is becoming increasingly comparable to volunteering to have an autopsy performed on you while you’re still alive.

Do you think Glenn Close and Leonardo DiCaprio are annoyed they weren't at the #Oscars to get a Lego Oscar?

DID YOU KNOW: If a movie you like doesn't win Oscars, everything will be all right? It's true!

That Naomi Watts tweet is everything.
Re Nathaniel's tweet--those two are WAY hotter than the stars of 50 Shades.
And Daniel Switzer's--wins all prizes!. I was hoping she would turn in to Lucy or the alien from Under the Skin and vanquish that creature on her left. Ew.
Scarlett definitely looked uncomfortable around Travolta as did Idina Menzel. He was beyond creepy.
Meryl Streep is an example of what great actors should be. Be great at your craft and make sure the other person looks good. In the terms of professional wrestling, it means putting someone over.
That Pablo L. tweet is fabulous! (Pawlikowski's speech was my favourite LOL speech of the evening.)
The Lady Gaga tweet is a beautiful thing.
That Alien 3 tweet is brilliant. Hilarious.
I like the Cotillard tweet. So true, So true.
My favourite was from Audra Macdonald:
“@AudraEqualityMc: PATRICIA ARQUETTE!!!! Leave that mic right on the floor where you dropped it!!!” YES
omg jose is continually so damn cute about julianne
That Naomi Watts tweet is so RUDE. lmao.
But did anyone notice that they played Come What May when Nicole came out? Made me all bitter again about that song not even getting a nom.
Great collection, Nathaniel. You do the work so we won't have to.
Couple of my faves:

Lol. Those travolta and watts ones are funny cause they're kinda mean.
That Boyhood tweet is giving me liiiiiife! haha
