I'm watching it! I'm here to prove it

2:16am (Greece time)



Well, we're in the red carpet zone.

I liked Anthony Mackie's nasty comment about Avatar.

Cameron thinks he's going to win. Poor guy.



2:26


Meryl looks great in white. In black too. And yellow.


Dammit! Why are people pretending Clooney is still interesting in the red carpet?




2:32


Will I live to see Mirren looking ugly-old? I don't think so.

Kristen Stewart looks bored once again. Is it plastic surgery or just how she feels?



2:42


Sarah Jessica Parker was born to be on red carpets! It's her land.


2:45



Miley Cyrus talks as if she is 40. She's pretty cool, actually. First surprise of the night.



2:52



The Godess has arrived!












I kind of don't like the dress. But who cares? She is beautiful.



2:59



Dammit! (again) Now I have to take that first "dammit" back because I realized why people think Clooney is still interesting. Because he is. I really liked what he said about how they know who's gonna win and how much a nomination is good for the career of a good, but not yet recognized actor.




3:45


The introduction was funny but kind of embarrassing! For Clooney, at least.

Why are the clips so long? I like it!




3:50


It's Waltz. Obviously. Deserved. Nice speech.



4:00


UP won. Of course I knew it would but I'm still disappointed.



4:17


Boal for The Hurt Locker! Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!



4:23


Lovely tribute to John Hughes!

Macaulay Culkin used to look exactly like me. We aged quite differently.




4:37


I did not just watch that!! The man (co-winner of the best short doc award) began to speak but they put music. Embarrassiiiing!



4:42


Stiller was pretty cool!



4:52



Precious for best adapted screenplay!! Wow! Thank God. I loved the kind-of-a-speech! The reactions too! Steve Martin drove it to perfection!



5:01

Mo'Nique, you. are. the. (wo)man! Performance, not politics. Exactly. The rest of the speech was nice in her sweet-angry way.



5:08

Avatar guys bore me. No, I was not that moved, sorry.




5:12


Wow! Sandy Powell rocks! Great speech.




5:22


Why do I think I'm loving this year's Oscars?




5:28


The Hurt Locker wins everything!! Kathryn looks so happy!



5:41


I liked the tribute to the people who passed awat lat year but they really should hold the applaud for the end. It's not a competition between the dead.


5:46


Glasses make Sam Worthington look even less talented.



5:56

"Avatar is a movie about learning to see the world in a new way" or something. Really? No, thank you.


6:10


It's official. The Hurt Locker IS 2009's best motion picture. Alright, not yet. Tecnically...



6:17


El Secreto de sus Ojos wins. Not totally surprising but still, it beat some strong competition.



6:35

I'm happy for Jeff but, this speech is just too boring.


6:37


It's over and I feel gooood! I didn't want Sandra to win but that speech made me happy that she did. And of course, I am very happy for Kathryn and The Hurt Locker!




That's all folks.

The dawn of an era

Quite ambitious, I know. But why not?

I have to say that my English will be awful sometimes but you will forgive me. (I hope there will be a "you" to adress to)

This is another blog that focuses on the arts, you would think. Well, it's the first one that comes from me so it's like nothing you've seen before. That's a good thing, OK?

There is at least one person that will comment on my posts so that's encouraging. No, I don't pay her, she is just aware of my greatness! She is also quite lovely. Dammit, I hope you know who you are. :p


Let me say that I'm an Oscar addict and you will see a lot of Oscar-related posts.

I would like to comment on this year's nominees. I have to say, since Tilda Swinton isn't nominated, I am not that excited. There are some good movies and performances but I'm not in love with any of them. So the only two reasons for me to watch the ceremony are:

1) I have to. I must obey my nature.

2) Someone might punch James Cameron or touch the genitals of a winner. That would be pretty embarrassing! I hope it happens.

I would make some predictions but the important future winners are pretty predictable. I will say this. Carey Mulligan will win. Or not. But hey, if I'm right I will have the right to brag. I love that.

So, what do you, dear readers (OMG, I'm delusional) think will be the upset on Oscar night?

PS: Music posts will also come. This is Oscar season. You understand, right?
