Oh this year's oscar... what problems do I have with thee?
Well, first off that really wierd and pointless intro song thing.
The first good hosts in YEARS were given so little to do and so few jokes to work with.
That even stranger ball room/interprative dance thing set to the nominated Best Scores. Not only was it stupid beyound reason, it made no sense in the slightest. The only thing ever like that was that holographic circus scene from Star Wars Holiday Special.
How all but one of the best Actor/Actress "introducers" were so robotic. They said the same, "you inspired me, your the best," crap that made me think they are part of the Borg or something. Only Tim Robbins put some heart into his introduction for Morgan Freeman. The most painful was Oprah's "intro." Besides the Color Purple, what films has that woman been in? The only reason she was there because she paid for Precoius.
The whole "horror" segment was random and pointless. Unless they did it for all the genre's of film, why just do that one? And why are you considering Twilight horror? I mean, it scared the crap out of me, but for all the wrong reasons.
This award ceremony really felt very rushed in the last hour or so. I could tell the actor and actress video was the "short" one. You could see that the producer was making the award recievers hurry up. And the fact they had Tom Hanks walk on stage and say, "the Hurt Locker won" really made me really angry.
Sandra Bullock... the award she recieved Saturday speaks for it self.
Finally, the Hurt Locker winning the big one. The only reason it won because it protrayed american troops as reckless cowboys and it made a "David vs. Goliath" situation between it and Avatar. However, the films are so similar, and the fact that Kathryn Bigelow helped Cameran edit Avatar, it is more "David vs. Bill Gates." All but the Blind Side and Precious deserved the best picture win then Avatar and Hurt Locker. I was rooting for Up the most, but I would of been happy with the others.
