Amazing Green Unitard = GOLD
The Oscars, a time when Hollywood sets aside their petty difference for a night, glams up and pretends to be merely humble craftsmen for one night. A night with red carpets, more paparatzi than Princess Di's car crash and more importantly, an award show Paris Hilton can't shame with her money-grubing no talent presence.
Yes only at the Oscars can one find Jack Nicholson and Three Six Mafia in the same room, only The Oscars can snub Miyazaki so shamlessly, only the Oscars can make Jon Stewart not funny, not because his jokes were bad (and lets face it they weren't great), but because of what I've always suspected, to make it in Hollywood you must sell your soul and by doing so loose your emotions, more importantly your ability to appreciate a comical genius like Jon fricken Stewart. Oh how I love these meaningless yet so anticipated awards that glorify America's facination with rich pretty people.
The night hit a lull pretty early, and for the Oscars that's saying something, but THANK GOD for Ben Stiller who was probably my favorite moment of that entire show in his "amazing green unitard"!! Him, Stewart, Reese and Three Six Mafia being the only ones to appear to show true human emotions like joy, awakwardness, and a sense of humor.
One of the biggest shames of the night, almost worse than Jethro Tull winning Best Heavy Metal Performance in 1989, but not quiet was Wallace and Grommit beating out Howl's Moving Castle. I may be biased towards Miyazaki but that's only because he is a true genius with original ideas and amazing animation, but that is besides the point......moral of the story, best animation oscar, DOWNGRADE! (FU BWE for implanting that term in my head.)
I must say one of the best parts of The Oscars is judging celebrities fashion fo-paws. Did anyone else see Naomi Watts hideous excuse for a dress and did anyone else vomit a little in their mouths when they saw it like I did. Pretty in Pink meets a paper shredder. But Ms. Watts didn't shame the fashion world alone, I'd also put Keira Knightly's hair up their for worse fasion choice of the night. I don't know what she was going for but she managed to make herself unattractive. I didn't know it was possible but she has suceeded. Maybe that is what she was going for, and if so I APPLAD YOU AND YOUR HORRIBLE HAIR-DO MS.KNIGHTLY!
Is it just me or were there more commercial breaks this year than an episode of TRL?
Although the gay cowboys scored a few points, Crash shocked coming in from behind and winning Best Picture. And by everyone I mean anyone who didn't listen to any commentary or pre-Oscar foreplay talk which repeatidly called Crash as the underdog with a shot.
Yes the Oscars were more than a little predicatable, as usual. And I loved every glam-soaked minute. Because if for only one night I can pretend I am there sharing in all the glory and not at home writing notes in a journal with my hair unbrushed (but clean!), munching on Koala Yummies and sipping some fine Diet Mt. Dew, from a plastic cup.
