• I'm shocked Ben Affleck didn't try to elbow his way up front.

• So many well-knowns in the back. I can't even spot Hugh Jackman. It's like Where's Waldo trying to find anyone.

• AnnE got stuck in the second to last row. Look for her in the centre.

• Naomi Watts on Cooper's left. Christoph Waltz at the end of the row. Helen Hunt and Speilberg behind Waltz. DeNiro behind Speilberg. Affleck and Washington in the back row Jennifer Lawrence in white beside woman in red in the back row.

• Found him. Jackman is in the center beside the statue.

• But where is Barbra? She is singing after all.

• Is there a high-res version out yet? My eyesight isn't what it used to be.

• [quote]Christoph Waltz at the end of the row. Helen Hunt and Speilberg behind Waltz. That looks like David O Russell, not Waltz.

• Jackman is next to Chastain 4th row down near the center, directly to the right of the Oscar statue (next to the shoulder)

• Jackie Weaver sitting in front row in peach-colored dress 7th or 8th in from the left

• Is that Dave Grohl in 2nd row standing 5th in from the left?

• Wouldn't it have been cute if they had Sally fly in on wires?

  AnnE

• Did I used to attend these things or was I considered above it?

  M

• Ben is the tall guy with the beard in the back row. Amy Adams is in front of Ben. Tim Burton is on her right. Jaoquin and Sally are to the left of Amy. Denzel is in the center back row.

• Where's Edy Williams?

• Denzel and Quvenzhanaynay must have been feeling reaaaallly out of place in here.. Shame on the Academy, only two black people. If I were them I wouldn't even have shown up for this photo

• actually there is another black person r16. see how quick you can spot him/her

• There's other black people r16. Just because they aren't big fat women like Octavia and Monique and don't stick out doesn't mean they aren't there r16. Get a magnifying glass and play Where's Waldo....there is one with a shaved head upper right....

• What is Helen Hunt looking at?

• where's Kathryn Bigelow?

• I see Pia Zadora in row 5. And Miss Swan in row 7---she looka lika man.

• So roughly, only 1 out of 5 of these people will walk home with an Oscar and the rest of them end up with a really bad hangover the next morning?

  AnnE

• [quote]where's Kathryn Bigelow? at home probably...she wasn't nominated.

• I think that's Bigelow standing next to DeNiro.

• Ok I see Bigelow in beige just behind Helen Hunt. And that is definitely David Russell sitting in front of Spielberg, not Walz

• Oh look! It's Tareq Salahi, along with his wife Michaele!

• oh...I guess Bigelow is nominated as a producer, sorry.

• Bigelow is nominated for prducer of ZDT.

• Kathryn Bigelow.. Does she wear dentures?

• Christoph and Tommy Lee are standing in the back row, left side with a woman standing in between them.

• right side

  R30

• Yes, she does, R29. But she always takes them out when giving a blow job.

  James Cameron

• ewww

• She is def a GGILF

• I can't see them!

• Is there any other profession so overwhelmingly populated by white men anymore?

• R36 Ku Klux Klan?

• [quote]Is there any other profession so overwhelmingly populated by white men anymore? the senate

• NHL

• Here's the "official" official picture. Much better quality:

  Mia

• Let's play "Pick Out The Jews".

• Where's Sally?

• [quote]Bradley Cooper front and center beside Quavenzhane Wallis: He was probably sitting there before anyone else entered the room, the attention hog. If you watch past At The Actor's Studio, he was always front row.

• Anne is already sizing up the giant model of the Oscar statuette, and thinking that's going to be the one she wants them to hand to her.

• Tony Kushner of course has his eyes closed.

• [quote]Is there any other profession so overwhelmingly populated by white men anymore? Wall-Street (the top echelons anyway)

• Where's Daniel Day-Lewis?

• OMG @ they guy with the long frizzed white hair! Third row, third from left, standing next to alleged lesbian billionaire, Megan Ellison.

• Be sure to click on the pic at R40's link. It gets real big.

• Does Bradley Cooper wear a hair piece?

• I don't think so

• R51 No, just a merkin.

  R. DeNiro

• Don't see Alan Arkin or Daniel Day-Lewis

• How do they determine who sits where? Is it just a free-for-all? I remember at those old Metro anniversary parties, they'd sit most of the actors in alphabetical order (well, once you got past LB and the first row of divas).

• Last year's winners have been confirmed as presenters. Meryl, Jean, Octavia and Christopher.

• [quote]Don't see Alan Arkin or Daniel Day-Lewis DDL was sick with the flu. Not sure about Arkin.

• R48 DDL press agent has issued a statement that he is violently ill with the flu.

• R43, Sally is in the second back row, center-left, in front of the woman in light blue. Joaquin Phoenix is on Sally's right.

• [quote]Tony Kushner of course has his eyes closed. Maybe he had just seen a screening of "Lincoln".

• Do all the nominees get to be present? Even the lesser categories, i.e. Animated Short Film? Or just the major ones?

• R40's link shows there are actually 4 Black people. My bad

• [quote]How do they determine who sits where? Is it just a free-for-all? They are called individually by name. Apparently it is usually in alphabetical order but this year it was random. Ratboy Cooper was one of the first. According to a reporter that was there, the little girl, Quvenzhane Wallis, got the loudest applause from the other nominees when her name was called. Other popular ones were all the Lincoln people (Sally, TLJ, Spielberg, and the below the line folk), Hugh Jackman, and Amy Adams.

• *rolls eyes*

• Is Jean Dujardin staying up nights reciting Quvenzhane's name over and over?
