Oscars

[BeckyBrandon]

Tempted to pull an all nighter and watch the oscars as I don't have work tomorrow. Is anyone else or am I a fool who will be sorely disappointed?

Oooh, Dan Day-L has won Best Actor! for the third time... My left foot, for the first one...no idea what his other one was for

There Will be Blood, he won for.

oh right...that kind of past me by

and Ben Affleck's come a long way!

I am so sad I'm missing it! :(

why are you missing it?

I am just updating the BBC site at work - will watch it when it comes on TV over here, usually on cable, in a couple of weeks

We don't have a TV. Usually I stay over and watch it with a friend but had work tonight and a conference with DS's teacher tomorrow.

I guess the whole thing will be online tomorrow but it's just not the same!

oh, hold on...do you mean you are supposed to actually be there, in Hollywood, and you're missing it because you are preggers and couldn't fit into a frock?

are you, like, famous?

x posts!!

Hahaha! Oh Lord, I would make SUCH a fool of myself if I ever went to the Oscars. I would die.

Jennifer Lawrence (who won, yay!) said that she became such a babbling idiot when she met John Stamos at a party that he asked her if she was on mushrooms. :o

Just watching clips on youtube. Daniel D-L, what a classy speech.

Silver Linings was overrated IMHO. I'm glad she won though. I've already forgotten who she was up against!

Ooh, I take it back, I actually loved Naomi Watts's dress - slightly weird boob thing but overall but sensational colour and fit.

Anne Hathaway, why would you wear that thing on the night you know you're going to win an Oscar? Very poor choice.

Jennifers Aniston & Garner - lovely choices. Sally Field - magnificent.

Jessica Chastain - not really feeling the colour or the cut. Jessica Lawrence - how many loo rolls was she concealing under there exactly? No wonder she tripped.

Just finished watching loved when Hugh jackman pops up to help Jennifer Lawrence he us such a gent. So pleased Ben affeck won did shed a tear.

i've just taken a long haul flight and was totally bored (dropped off, mouth wide open) by Lincoln. Don't want to watch Pi. Rest was rubbishy shite EXCEPT the most wonderful documentary/film that I so want to watch again on a big screen and I will buy because I don't want to lose it. Searching for Sugarman. What a wonderful story.

Was a bit disappointed Daniel Day Lewis predictably won best actor. Saying that I haven't actually seen the film, but have assumed it's a performance that ticks all the Academy Award boxes.

It's politics, in't it.

Always a good idea to watch films not-nominated. Searching for Sugarman is one of those special ones. Another one would be Man on Wire, again, SUCH a special film.

Yes, politics Frogman. Think it's a film that would bore me as well.

Jen Garner with wrinkles on her forehead....what no Botox shocker!

Jane Fonda- waa-waa-wee-wuu! Amazing.
Quentin T...just looks more and more odd- has he had a facelift?
Christopher W- Ahem...hello
Samuel L Jackson- looked like he was going to sit down and read a story on Cbebbies

I think Jennifer Anniston (although not a fan) is looking stupendous in red. Are those of you decrying her taste just being anti-Anniston?

Nothing surprising, "the Academy" votes for the same thing every time (probably because the Academy is 94% White, 77% male and has an median age of 62).

Was rooting for Quvenzhané Wallis but not surprised she didn't win with the Academy's voting record. The fact Seth MacFarlan made a sexual joke about a 9 year old girl and was not instantly pushed off the stage and was in fact applauded was disgusting.

And I'm trying to be shocked that a whitewashed not-history movie making Americans the heroes and trashed everyone else when really they were only bit players, but that's what they eat up without blinking.

The system is messed up.
