I did not even recognize Sharon Stone. She must have had some facial work done.
I did not watch the show, even though it was on the entire time here. I did glance at it every once in awhile and was in the same room the whole time.
I thought Helena Bonham Carter had a wild and crazy expression the one or two times I saw her. I thought the same about her on one of the other recent awards shows.
I was annoyed by Melissa Leo. (and by Anne Hathaway at times) I also thought Natalie Portman was boring.
I really don't care about fashion, but overall, I thought most of the dresses were pretty. As a group overall they were prettier than the past few Oscar shows, imo.

Melissa Leo was annoying when she was on Homicide: Life on the Street, looks like nothing has changed.

I've seen all except Extremely Loud. Watched The Help and Tree of Life last night. I can't say I'd recommend Tree of Life.
I taped the Spirit awards and will watch that today, and then the Oscars tonight! I think I'm rooting for Hugo, but expecting The ARtist to win a lot.

I think it's great too and Billy is doing a fantastic job.

I've seen Hugo, The Descendants and The Artist. And my favorites are in that order. The Artist was too long and somewhat predictable for me. Loved Hugo and was really surprised that I did.
