      It was nice, but not as good as the GG one. (Which I missed at the time, natch.)

      Did the Precious folks coordinate their dresses? Oprah is also in blues.

        It’d be kind of cool if it were a silent nod to the book’s author.

      And I’d like to thank Joey, the guy at 7-11 who sold me the tacos I bought on the way here …. and my dogwalker Libby, she is so good with that ball throwing stick thing … and Jackie, the man who found that error on my taxes back in 1928.

      Why couldn’t they get someone more famous? Probably because he’s not going to win.

    • hsofia 4:28 am on March 8, 2010 Permalink | Reply

      I am kind of weirded out by this testimonial thing before the actors get announced. Is this new or have they been doing this a while? It makes me feel uncomfortable. The actors seem to like it, but I just feel so nervous for the testifiers!

      • Emgee 4:29 am on March 8, 2010 Permalink | Reply

        Ditto!

      • snarkysmachine 4:29 am on March 8, 2010 Permalink | Reply

        it’s the second year they’ve done it. Last year it was like they were initiating Kate Winslet into a covet of witches.

        I just resent that it’s making this last even longer.

          And seriously – this self-congratulatory wank-fest instead of letting the small indie folks finish their speeches???

    WTF? Now you’re teasing best picture and we still haven’t done actor or actress? I know these things are notoriously long, but COME THE FUCK ON. And I’m on central time.

      Yeah bring on Kate Winslet while she’s still sober.

      They need to take a page from the Golden Globes, cut out all the montages and crap jokes and serve booze. It’s over faster!

        Yeah, weren’t awards shows on a winding-it-up-by-11 kick for a while there? I miss that.

          She seems to be in a whole lot of movies that I never, ever want to see. Not that that makes me love her any less, though.

            I love the horror montage clip of her hacking off James Caan’s leg though.

              She doesn’t hack off his leg. She hobbles him by breaking his ankles.
