So I did watch the Academy Awards last night. Early on, I had to ask myself, "what the hell am I watching?"
First of all, I only saw one of the movies nominated for best picture, Juno. Honestly, if this was one of the best movies of the year, it's probably good I didn't see too many this year. Then last night I had to endure performances of those three god awful songs from Enchanted.
There were very few laughs. The only thing I kind of found funny was Jon Stewart's line after The Bourne Ultimatum won one of its awards, "Someone just jumped ahead in the office pool with a complete guess." T
he show wasn't as predictable as many critics have said, however. Marion Cotillard and Tilda Swinton were total surprises. But most speeches were a total bore. Thumbs down. A boring cliche, I know, but fitting.
My next post will have new pieces of writing, I promise. I know it was Friday I promised it would come.
