Reply to comment by jokekiller94 in Oscars 2023 Will Include All 23 Categories Presented Live on Air by MarvelsGrantMan136
They were all aired. All that got cut out was the banter from the presenter and the winners walking to the stage. They're just going to do it live because they didn't end up saving that much time

Not true. Literally every disenfranchised category were piling on the academy about this and we were all pretty upset about it. The fact that they aired the videos was immaterial to the fact that they decided those categories were less important and less worthy of the full praise that the worthy categories received. It’s a very small concern for those not involved in it, but to think that one of the most major accomplishments of your career might be relegated to a throwaway video on the way to a commercial is pretty lame and not what the original intent was with the awards.

Yes, true. They did air all of the awards and speeches.

Because they thought the awards and speeches would get cut. You might have considered them to be throwaway videos, but I enjoyed watching the speeches.

It’s true that they aired all the speeches. The not true part was the why. We were all informed ahead of time that the speeches would all be aired. That was never in doubt. The fact that they went long regardless had little to do with the decision. It was a full on campaign from the governors of each branch, including the ones who were aired live. The heads of the show were heavily trying to please the advertisers who care only about ratings.

removed the reason for pre-taping the speeches

They aired edited versions of speeches.
Joe Walker the editor has his speech edited.
