    I don't get the Ben hate for that comment. Marriage is work, even more so for a good one.

      @Amber ITA agree about Salma. Since she's married to the guy that owns like every major fashion label in the world, the bar is set higher for her. And my first thought when I saw her outfit was "That's the best you can do?!" Channeling In Living Color: "Hated it!"

    I didn't find anything he said offensive - marriage is a work in progress. I think they know everyone talks about them and he was sort of putting some rumors to bed.

    During the red carpet I thought the side view of Jen looked pregnant.

    Marriage is work but its an unspoken rule in hollywood to not talk about it while accepting an award on stage in front of millions of viewers. I'm not condoning what he said, I thought it was really gutsy. I wish he would have called out his coproducer for stealing his shine.

    He totally fucked up. The hilarious thing is he finally got rid off all the cheating stories, he's been on this Oscar campaign shoving his perfect family life in our faces for months now, and he just admitted there were issues and opened the floodgates for article after article now questioning the state of their marriage. You could almost see it on her face, she was like stfu. Lol.

    I thought Ben was nervous---and any marriage is work, and he slipped up and said it out loud at the Oscars. People just jump on it because of Affleck's past. He was referencing his own career redemption, and I think the personal redemption of his family was part of his 'theme'. I feel bad for Jen and him that people took at as meaning more than it did.

    She supports his passions, she gave him 3 kids, he's thankful. Just badly worded imo.

    I thought Ben's comments were sweet and genuine. He seemed really nervous and more than a little shell shocked by the whole thing. Given that he wasn't nominated for best director, and that historically, films that don't also receive a best director nomination, rarely win for best film, he seemed completely taken by surprise.

    He is right, marriage is a lot of work, and anyone who would disagree has either never been married, or is divorced.

    On a side note, I found it kind of odd that a film can receive a best picture nomination while the director is snubbed. Is it not in large part the director shapes a film? Guess he's still being punished for Gigli.

    I admire Ben for his comments and, as a divorced woman, think it's very strong for him to come out and acknowledge the work that come in keeping a marriage together.

  21. Elle1:07 PM

    Yup, co sign on the marriage is work comments. Ben was in the middle of speaking and Grant Heslov pushed him to the side and rambled on before 'presenting' him as the director. Yes we know he is the director. He doesn't need an intro after the Exec Producer thanks everyone in his life. We also know Ben was snubbed and so it was his moment to really bask in the achievement of making a great movie. To me it looked like Ben was so thrown off at being derailed that when he started to speak, he was nervous and and obviously pissed at the fact he might get the Jaws music. Such a shame. he really deserved that moment and he got screwed IMO. Jen seems to support him so I am sure she won't take offense.

  24. DavidsFan1:17 PM

    I loveDaniel Day Lewis. His speech is always first rate. Such a well spoken gentleman.

    Love Affeck too. So glad Argo won best pic. Deservedly so. I had to rewind his speech when he "thanked" his wife whose face changed from crying/emotional, to frozen/STFU expression. The producer was very kind in not showing her face as his speech went further. Marriage is works. Yes. But that was not the time nor place. Worst: he didn't say he love her. Only said he loved his kids. She must be so hurt.

    But I do hope their marriage will be happy and long lasting because they both seem to really love their kids and care for each other. There are much temptation for Ben - even more so now with A to Z list starlets. But I do wish he sticks to his family and finds beauty, happiness and love in his marriage.

  25. elisacg1:18 PM

    I thought it was endearing that Ben was a bit taken back that Argo won, especially since he was snubbed for Best Director. It made me like him a bit more since he was so honest and genuine. We need more of that in Hollywood. It was cute at the end when his voice cracked saying hello to his children.

    I also thought Garner looked pregnant on the red carpet. I think it may have been the angle though.

  26. Kerlypet1:19 PM

    While what he said was nice and completely true I got the impression that he was thanking everyone that worked on the movie and was saying "worked/working" a lot and speaking so fast that he said working on our marriage by accident and just went with it.

    The director snub is going to be more common because the math doesn't work. 9 films are nominated for Best Picture & 5 directors are nominated. That means no matter what they decide at least 4 Best Picture directors are going to get snubbed. He got a nice consolation prize at the end of the ceremony.

    The full academy nominates the best picture candidates, and there can be as many as ten if they fit the minimum requirements. The directors' branch nominates their category and that might be part of the problem. For whatever reason, they didn't but Affleck on the ballot.

    I loved Robin Roberts dress. I thought the color and the draping were done beautifully.

    On the Ben thing, eh it wasn't the most eloquent thing to say but prob from the heart and definetly not rehearsed which I appreciate.

    Nicole Kidmans dress would of been better without the detailing on the bottom. Too busy. I thought Salma looked good I didn't love the dress but think she looked put together. Maybe it was because she followed Kstew my reaction was skewed. Amy Adams looked ridiculous. Every time they panned to her I felt an eye roll come on...

    DDL was great and I thought Hugh and wife looked happy together.

    Judging by recent interviews, Ben really, really wanted that oscar. I'm glad he won, maybe some day I will see the movie.

    Before the awards I saw the two of them on the red carpet and they seemed (to me) to be really engaging with each other. Looking at each other and smiling, etc.

    Compare that with Michael Douglas and CZJ. She was just blathering along being interviewed, and acting as if she was on the red carpet all by herself.

    Quite a contrast.

    Wow- I am shocked by all the negative comments on Ben's speech! I LOVED it, and if I were Jen, or if my husband said that about me, I would be beyond grateful. He basically thanked her for putting up with him, for doing the work required of a solid marriage. They ARE work - if they are right and going to last. He loves his wife for being willing to do that required work. And he says, THERE IS NO ONE I WOULD RATHER WORK WITH. My gosh, what is so wrong with that? I thought it was honest, endearing and super sweet- and exactly the sentiment that needs to be at the heart of a couple determined to make it. Anyone who criticizes it I think misses the real point.. And either isn't married or divorced or will be...
    Other comments: Charlize is ridiculously gorgeous and well spoken, I love jennifer lawrence- what a refreshing class act, Adele is a goddess, period, Catherine z-j is phenomenally egocentric and irritating, and that performance belonged in the year of Chicago, not now, Michael looked poorly botoxed, such that he had rake lines just above his brow, stopping at an even 1", George was smug, per usual, Rene looked drugged, Kristen Stewart looked like a snotty teen, nailing the coffin on any likability left, both jens (g &a) looked stunning, Seth was meh, jane shows the youngins how it's DONE, Salma needs a new stylist, if Ann Hath truly hated her crotch shot, why for fux sake did she wear that hideous, braless areole display, Hugh's wife was utterly charming on red carpet, i fell in total like of her, and she and Hugh seemed genuinely affectionate and lovey (this coming from someone who long figure him gay- made me rethink for first time. I honestly saw a real, honest, intimate bond). Keith urban seems really cool- and hot, Nicole was looking better again, wish she were nicer, too, queen is gorge, robin Roberts glowed brighter than anyone, daniel day is effortlessly charismatic- I love him like I love anthony Hopkins... I thought Michelle Obama was out of place, and jack should hang up his pervin' boots already. Does anyone NOT like robert de niro and Alan Arkin?!? Christopher plummer has a twinkle in his eye ... Am sure there is more, but I'll take a break ;)

    RE Ben's speech comments - remember that there are cheating rumours going around. That might be why people are commenting on the phrasing.

    That said, they've both been open about parenting/family life and work, and the resulting difficulties of balancing them. As much as one might think a star's life is so much easier with money and help and all that, I wouldn't want it in a million years. Standing on a red carpet only to have millions of people critiquing my dress choice - hell, no. This sensitive snowflake is glad for her out-of-the-limelight life.

    I saw a pic of Coop's mom when DeNiro didn't win the Best Supporting Oscar. Priceless!

    For all the crap Jane Fonda's gone through (health-wise), she looks mighty awesom. Go, Jane!

    Marriage is work! I have no clue if there is cheating, or if there is some understanding between them, I really don't care. He was being honest. I love the color of Fonda's dress, I just didn't like the dress itself. The carpet was severely lacking color.

    I love the colour of Jen G's dress but the cut was just so unflattering. I also didn't like the back of it. Good on her for wearing colour and choosing the colour so well, though!

    I hate all the nude dresses. It's so rarely a good look.

    Even though I would have loved to see more colour I really enjoyed Charlize and JLaw's dresses. I generally hate peplum and wedding dressish dresses, but they both looked great.

He knows he is grateful, I think, that his kids "know his name". Lovely.

    Personally, I thought Ben came off as very endearing during his speech. It may not be in traditional Oscar fashion to say such things, but I appreciated his candor.

    As for Jen being pregnant, this picture makes me think she's not and it's simply a combination of those ruffles and her stance that's deceiving in certain angles.
