Even though I wasn't at the Oscars, fanboying on Twitter with other fansites felt like I was! We were so excited throughout the night, and I want to thank +Quarter Quell for an amazing experience as well by tweeting back and forth and making the night EVEN better!
With no Mockingjay - Part 1 Award Nominations at the Oscars this year, 'The Hunger Games,' fansites (including ourselves) tuned in to the show for Julianne Moore who is nominated for 'Still Alice,' and Josh Hutcherson, who is presenting. You can see the trailer for the film HERE. The night was so fun, and being a fansite, I was so happy to be apart of it.
Here is a timeline of what happened.
Pre-Show
This. EPIC. Mockingjay. Part 1. DVD. TRAILER. CAME. ON. The fandom freaked out, as we did, and all got even more excited for Mockingjay Part 1 on DVD!

Start of the ShowNeil Patrick Harris begins his opening monologue and song featuring..... KATNISS! It's a quick glimpse, but still, it's nice to see a little Katniss at the Oscars.
See the whole world's reaction in two tweets:

AND. THEN. THIS HAPPENED. Josh Hutcherson walked out to 'The Hanging Tree!' Oh, please don't get us started.
Ok I know its silly but I just love the Mockingjay song. That thing gave me chills and should've been nominated. #Oscars2015

TOTAL FANDOM HEART ATTACK!!!!!!During the show, we had amazing musical performances, featuring "Glory," by John Legened/Common and a performance by Lady Gaga! Each were very spectacular and brought tears to some people in attendance at the Oscars. What was your favorite part?
Then as we waited and the suspense was building up, we tweeted out:
CONGRATULATIONS TO JULIANNE MOORE!!!
