And The Oscar Goes To...Hell

What happened to the Academy Award shows I used to love? I guess it would have helped to see some of the movies that were nominated. I think the only one I saw was "Eastern Promises" so I'm going to root for Viggo to win. I just saw his performance in Chainsaw 3 on cable. That was a trip. Anyway, a few good jokes by John Stewart does not an award show make. Where is Billy Crystal? Letterman? Even Ellen might have livened up things (Best Actress for crying over a dog). This year in my book Katherine Hiegl wins for Best Dressed for evoking the spirit of Marilyn Monroe. Best Supporting Actress Tilda Swinton (Queen of Narnia) looked more like Gollum from "Lord of the Rings" although her acceptence speech was sincere. More to come tomorrow after the show (if I make it to midnight...)
