Bridges Vs. Clooney: What Really Happened (GIFs)

Both George Clooney and Jeff Bridges acted like the Best Actor Oscar they were battling for last Sunday wasn’t a big deal. Bridges tried to appear stoic, but ended up looking smug. So undude. Meanwhile, Clooney acted like he was just there to drink and party. That strategy backfired. By night’s end he resembled a bitter, shitfaced ex-girlfriend. For once, that’s not a good look for you, George. Here’s an out-of-context parody of the night visual evidence that the award was indeed a ginormous effin’ deal for both actors (GIFs via a great Oscars wrap-up at FourFour).

    So.. Fourth one down. . Doesn’t it look like she’s saying, “Mothafuckin’ Bastard!”

  2. MyName says:

    No Max, it does not.

  3. Brad Davidson says:

    The last one of Clooney looking unimpressed is during the opening monologue thing from Martin/and Baldwin. For shame, using pictures to lie.

  4. Ken Pasco says:

    Clooney had a tougher role in his movie. Jeff only won because he’s never won before. But that’s ok. they’re both good actors who won’t starve.

  5. joe says:

    Hey, Joe, do you need to download a satire/sarcasm program for your computer? Get a clue. Comparing a sarcastic film post to FOX is asinine.

  8. Justin says:

    You guys do realise that this is a joke right?

    Especially since BEFORE the .gifs the author of the post strikethroughs a sentence which reads “an out-of-context parody of the night”.

    Stop being lazy and do some reading before you make snarky comments.

  9. Rodney says:

    Can’t we all just get along? For the childrens??

  10. Celeb Toast says:

    that fourth one down it looks like clooney and the chick next to him are having a conversation with someone and are agreeing with something they said. Her expression says something like, “i can see that” although thats not what she is saying, and his expression says, ” i know, totally!”
    and yes bridges is without a doubt failing at his attempt to hold back excitement. If indeed that last one is from bridges being announced the winner or is up on stage, it looks like he doesnt have much respect for jeff bridges. I didnt watch so i dont know, but I’d bet my left nut that disgust is meant for sean penn…Just a guess.

  14. Dr. Jones says:

    tk:

    this whole thing is a joke.

    the last pic of Clooney acting disgusted was him playing along with the opening monologue by Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin

  15. Blair says:

    I hope this post is a whole joke. Because if you are serious, this is garbage.

    Clooney said on the red carpet of the Oscar’s that he knew he wasn’t winning that night. Bridges swept all the awards before the Oscar’s, so it was pretty much a given he was going to win best actor.

    Also, Clooney has already won an Oscar (best supporting, Syrianna). I seriously doubt he was pissed to lose this one to Bridges.

    Everyone complaining that this is taken out of context, did any of you bother to read the introduction? Here I’ll cut and paste it for you since you are too damn lazy to do it yourself: “Here’s an out-of-context parody of the night visual evidence that the award was indeed a ginormous effin’ deal for both actors”

    There you have it. Also, both actors make millions and I don’t think they care that some forum trolls are defending their facial expressions..

    how has no one pointed out “fude” as an instant argument-loser?

    has the internet actually evolved beyond spellcheck debate logic? I won’t stand for it. Thus:

    It’s “feud,” jackass.

    Those are some really dumb chicks sitting next to clooney.
