The 79th Academy Awards

By | February 28, 2007

So, even though I despise these things (see here) I still watched this year’s event.  What a hypocrite I am.   Some observations:

  • Ellen DeGeneres is equally as bad/good as Jon Stewart.  So we can assume she won’t be hosting next year (Seinfield anyone?).
  • I didn’t see any of the movies up for any Oscar except for Babel and I thought that movie was pretty lame-o.
  • We rarely go to movies these days.  When we did go once late last year it was to see Babel – should maybe have went to see the Departed which was playing at the same time.
  • Bravo for cutting off speeches ruthlessly for the non-celebrities.  Too bad it wasn’t the case for the more famous ones.
  • Since when do Americal Idol dropouts get to win Oscar’s?  Geez, I guess anybody can win one of these things.  I’d rather be Wonderboy.
