The Unofficial Academy Awards Thread

I’m choked up from Foxx’s speech as well.

Whaa…? No soup for Marty AGAIN.

And you can really tell Julia Roberts had children recently - those things are just begging to be set free.

This is more along the lines of I was thinking.

Warren looked rather angry.

It’s Clint Eastwood. Yay. And he brought his mom with.

Did they do a tribute to Bob Hope, or did I miss it?

Wow - talk about voice differences between life & acting - I had no idea Clint Eastwood really sounded like that.

Jamie Foxx talking about his grandmother was so sweet.

Is Clint Eastwood eerily starting to look somewhat like Christopher Reeve post-accident? Bad taste, but I’ve been getting this vibe for a while.

Poor Marty – the Susan Lucci of American movie directors.

My goodness, Jamie Foxx is easy on the eyes!

And he cried while talking about his dead grandmother. I’m going to remember that and bring it up in the next whining “Why don’t girls like to date nice guys?” thread. I’m fairly sure that Jamie Fox doesn’t whine about being a nice guy, yet he’s still up there crying about his grandmother. That’s hot.

Did Clint Eastwood just say that woman was his mother? Clint Eastwood’s mother is ALIVE? Give her the award!

Add Dustin Hofman to the toasted category.

I think he needs to do something about his hair or something.

Babs, you’re such a freakin’ primadonna! That was hilarious!

Last year.

Bob Hope died in 2003. They did a very nice tribute to him last year.

Wow…just wow.

I expected this to finally go to Scorcese but I have to say that, while I initially thought the MDB was cliched and sentimental it hung around in my mind for a long tim…I kept thinking about…it haunted me, and I think it had more to say than I initially gave it credit for.

So, ah, that was that.

Whoo Brooklyn!!!
Um, I’m in* Brooklyn and that looked stupid.

I think it was cliched, but what really made it for me was the acting. But for writing - c’mon -

(for those who’ve seen it)

They took her leg! Talk about melodramatic. You would’ve thought after all the care that went into finding her a good hospital, they might have had better staff.

Ssan

Probably a stupid question - what is the MDB???
