I just watched Crash this morning. It was really an amazing movie. I resisted for so long. Don't know why? I am so glad I watched it. The bow, I just don't get it.

I really hated March of the Penguins, so I won't have anything positive to say about that...Did they really need props for their win? Can you imagine what would have happened if Murderball had won? Jennifer Lopez had a great dress, but it was a terrible color for her. And what was with that unnatural looking tan? She looked like a Cheeto. I also think she looks better when her hair is less severe than it was there. We all cheered when Ms. Bacall came out. I love her and I don't care if she flubs a few lines. I'm still angry with the Academy for not finally giving her the Oscar she has long deserved when she was nominated for The Mirror Has Two Faces. She's a really classy broad and I love her. Oh and I forgot. Michelle Williams (of Brokeback Mountain) looked amazing, too. Apparently Frances McDormand is a real actress. She doesn't dress for these affairs.

I hate that severe looking hair when they pull it back so "hard" (ie Jada and J-lo.) I'm with Prisoner, they should just continue with no host at all...

Trivia: Michelle Williams' mom is a local and has been on all the local news stations lately. I am so over the "I have an Oscar nominated daughter" thang!

I loved the montage of social films. A long, great, admirable history.

Er... has Jessica Alba lost weight? I love her hair, but she looked awfully thin walking up to the mic.

Oh heck. I think I'm 0 for 50 on the Oscar pool I'm in. Lost the sound editing one, too! Sheesh!

Did you know Ms. Alba is suing Playboy because they put her on the cover of the newest issue without her permission? I think she looks beautiful.... I loved Lily and Ms. Streep. And Robert Altman is one of my favorite filmmakers, despite his rare missteps Ready to Wear, Kansas City, and Mr. T and His Women.

I didn't realize Altman did Mr. T and His Woman? Heh, learn something new everyday. I'm Tivo'ing the Oscars and watching Law & Order marathons on various stations. I figure I can see what everyone thinks of the show and then go back and see the relevant parts. Doesn't sound good for John Stewart; I had such high hopes. Is he as bad as Letterman was that year?

I think they will be begging Letterman to give it another try. This is just the worst.

I'm still irritated at the Academy for not continuing to use Steve Martin for host. I thought he was perfect. Stewart's not bad, but he's not great either. I like Lauren Bacall, but she notoriously called Shelley Winters and had a fit because Shelley's husband had not met her for their date (Shelley was married to Tony Franciosa at the time). Didn't care for that particular story. Can't stand J-Lo, hate seeing her on these shows, cheeto skin, corpse-like husband and all. Ready for the major awards already (PS I haven't seen a single movie that was nominated for a major award this year LOL.)

Best Look of the Night [IMO]: Ziyi Zhaung. Wow! What a dress! What hair! What makeup! She looked like Audrey Hepburn.

Wow, sounds like Stewart is, indeed, tanking. That's too bad. GAL, I liked Steve Martin as host too. I suppose a certain kind of humor is required for hosting the Oscars. Back to The Daily Show for John. LOL!

Well, I'm shocked to hear that this is Philip Seymour Hoffman's first nomination. He's been turning in fantastic performances for years. Glad he won - he's the type of character actor for whom leading roles are few and far between.

Well, these awards are going exactly as expected. I hope we have an upset somewhere...maybe Mr. Clooney will best Ang Lee for Director. I think we all know who is going to win for Best Actress and Best Picture.
