Oscar Roundup
Well my religious event has passed for another year.
As always I have several highlights:
- The musical number with Hugh, Beyonce, Zac, Vanessa and the Mamma Mia couple. Very well done - very clever mashing of musical numbers. I'm not a Beyonce fan, even a little bit, but she was very, very good.
- I LOVED the way they presented the acting awards - getting 5 past winners to directly address an individual nominee and praise them, not just for the role they were nominated for. I was crying before the award was even announced!
- I also loved how they showcased movies of the last year, regardless if they recieved any nominations or not. This is how it should be.
- I loved Sean Penn's speech - "Who knew you were a bunch of commie-homo lovers".
- Yay Kate Winslet. I have loved her since Heavenly Creatures, and I couldn't be more happy for her.
- Yay Heath. Didn't just cry when he won, out and out sobbed.
- Although it would have been nice for Mickey Rourke to win, I suspect that was too much for the traditional members of the academy.
- Hugh's opening number was a tad cringe-worthy, but I think he made up for it later.
- Ben Stiller's Joaquin Phoenix moment. Not funny, cringe-worthy.

Why so serious?
Yay Heath. I love the Oscars - they are my yearly religious event. Two sleeps to go! I hope Heath wins.
Fingers crossed for Sunday (Monday my time).
