This year’s Oscars were the meh-est on record: The awards were predictable. Ellen was likeable, but kinda dull. And as always, the awards seemed to last forever. At least we have free beer at Oscar parties and The Onion to make fun of this giant, expensive pat on the back of a show (and luckily, they didn’t get into trouble this year). Here are 7 Onion parodies of the 2014 Oscars:
