We...I missed the beginning - how could I miss NPH?! Well, time to go look for it online.<br /><br />I had no personal connection to the Oscars, but CuteFilmNerd did - Bob Murawski (who, along with his wife Chris Innis, won for Best Editing for <i>The Hurt Locker</i>) is a friend of his. We were both so happy when he won!<br /><br />Also, CFN recently took photos of Jeff Bridges at a Q&A for <i>Crazy Heart</i>, so there's that.<br /><br />SJP's dress was hideous and I hated her hair. Also, Charlize - boob flowers? Really?<br /><br />I am so happy that <i>The Hurt Locker</i> won so many awards - it was one of my favorite movies of the year. I just wish <i>District 9</i> could have won something.<br /><br />(Yes, I know it was unlikely considering when it was released and with the juggernaut that was <i>Avatar</i>. Still.)Carol Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06041453807217603422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-69556485253054428262010-03-09T12:03:08.401-05:002010-03-09T12:03:08.401-05:00OUCH!OUCH!neurondochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12155027993661209263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-61021268568350571582010-03-09T09:28:20.299-05:002010-03-09T09:28:20.299-05:00ABC used to do the Oscars as an internal show, one...ABC used to do the Oscars as an internal show, one we were proud of. <br /><br />It is cheaper to do it this way.<br /><br />Scanning the audience for black members?

I have...I didn't even watch one second of it. <br /><br />I haven't watched in years, because the shows are just so lame. I did, however, check out who wore what (not whom) online today. SJP's dress was awful. AWFUL. There are some pictures of me from the late 70's that make me wonder "why the hell did my mom let me leave the house looking like <i>that</i>", but I was a tween and it was the 70's. Seriously, Sarah, you chose that?neurondochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12155027993661209263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-11941083307194113592010-03-08T19:12:22.822-05:002010-03-08T19:12:22.822-05:00They saw the glass ceiling break into a million pi...<i>They saw the glass ceiling break into a million pieces when a woman won for best director.</i> <br />Brian William, NBC News - about 2 minutes ago. <br /><br />Meh. It was either going to be her or her ex. Not a big surprise. <br /><br />As for the rest - worst AAS in years! <br /><br />Ben Stiller's segment with its <i>Avatar</i> make-up was tacky & dreadful. One of the reasons I can't stand him - no taste. <br /><br />The award intros with friends, family or co-stars telling how wonderful they were in the film and THEN the presenter was introduced...waste of time. That dance montage of the nominees for best score - I have no idea what music went with movie, I’ve always enjoyed the composers or group doing their version onstage for the show. <br /><br />The bum rush at the end with Tom Hanks presenting for Best Picture? WTF? Would it have been too much trouble to run down the list one more time? Like it was an afterthought - oh, yeah, we’re running long and have one more left we need to do Best Picture just go open the envelope and hand them out. At the very least someone backstage should have offered to take Bigelow's Best Director award while she was ushered back onstage to receive the Best Picture award. It was nice however, that everyone from <i>Hurt Locker</i> that made it onto the stage paid tribute to the troops that inspired the movie. <br /><br />And did no one go to rehearsals? The number of flubbed lines, stumbling and giggling, totally unprofessional. OH, and the number of stars just chawing their gum, including SJP who even did multiple red carpet interviews in her Chanel sack dress with a wad of gum clearly showing when she talked. No manners. <br /><br />Blech. Overall I thought the show came off as disrespectful, tacky and rude, especially to the Academy and the people the show was supposed to honor.<br /><br />Next year I may really not watch. This was the at best the worst of the worst. The production company should be fired.

Having been on a movie binge for the last week, in order to see all of the "important" movies, I was really pleased with how well The Hurt Locker did. I enjoyed that movie, and also The Messenger....but secretly, I wanted UP to win. I am not big on animated movies, but that one? A Winner in every sense of the word<br /><br /><br />uncepr- short form found in director's Oscar night notes...as in George Clooney will be the "uncepr" for Cary Grant, as he will unable to accept for whatever reason...kimbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18202011517037727838noreply@blogger.com
