If we wanna talk about Christina Hendricks’ ridiculously glorious person, that’s cool, but that outfit is a travesty. I’m pretty sure someone wore it to my prom in 1987. ---

I literally gasped – and then burst out laughing – at the Mel Gibson intro. A definite “oh no you di’nt” moment. Meryl Streep is always cool…“I want to change my name to T-Bone”. Did anybody notice: Christoph Waltz gave a shout-out to Quentin Tarantino, which was met with a very faint golf clap. Does everybody in Hollywood hate QT? Doesn’t bode well for the Oscars. ---

I have to say that although she gives of a stink of a scank Lindsay looked pretty hot at an after party.

Christ, I said the same thing elsewhere and I didn’t get so much crap for it. I didn’t know this place was crawling with Avatar zealots. Yes, that’s _just_ all that you said. ---

> [@installLSC](#): > > Avatar (not going to watch it because I’m not a fan of action flicks) There’s only “action” in it in the last half-hour(ish) when the natives and sympathizers are trying to defend their home. Most of the rest of the time is getting to know the wonder, awe and beauty of Pandora, learning a new culture and exploring a new world. Some people find it boring, most people find it exhilarating (which is exactly why it’s making so much money, because they want to re-visit Pandora). Right-wingers want to nuke it from orbit. \*\*(500) Days of Summer \*\*is an excellent movie, one of my favorites from last year. I liked **The Hangover** , it was very funny, but I was rooting for 500. ---

I was stunned when **The Hangover** won. I found it mildly amusing, but nothing special. Not even particularly interesting. But I was mostly just sad that **Inglorious Basterds** didn’t win. That film was sublime, and definitely QT’s best work. I’m glad Christopher Waltz won, he deserved it. But I really hope that QT doesn’t get snubbed at the Oscars, too. ---

> [@pepperlandgirl](#): > > I was stunned when **The Hangover** won. I found it mildly amusing, but nothing special. Not even particularly interesting. I agree, forget Avatar, The Hangover is the true upset! I can literally say I did not laugh once–I smirked, I think, but no actual laughing. It may be the unfunniest funny movie I’ve ever seen. I Love You, Man was miles better. ---

> [@DianaG](#): > > I’d like to see 500 Days of Summer, based solely on how freakin’ adorable Joseph Gordon-Levitt was during the whole ceremony. Boy, was he happy to be there. He was having a blast. He was twittering through the ceremony. I don’t think he had a huge expectation of winning, he was just enjoying himself. I like him a lot. ---

> [@tumbleddown](#): > > He was having a blast. He was twittering through the ceremony. Aw, I should have checked him out. A lot of people were twittering during the ceremony. Amanda Palmer from the Dresden Dolls was there with Neil Gaiman (who I guess was there for Coraline which was up for Animated film) and [she was twittering](http://twitter.com/amandapalmer) and posting pictures of the table and the ladies room and the telepromter. She was pretty bored, not having a good time. She’d never seen the Golden Globes before and has only seen 4 movies in the last 2 years. She seems happy that [she was Fugged](http://gofugyourself.celebuzz.com/go_fug_yourself/2010/01/golden_globes_amandapalmer.html). ---

Actually I was thinking about a certain physical attribute that’s shown off very well by that outfit. What can I say, I think like a guy:).
