We headed down to -e-‘s house for the Oscars. We still haven’t plugged our television in after coming back from Iceland and she was offering homemade chicken soup for Rob’s cold (which is much better) so it seemed a pretty clear choice. There was much hashing of costumes, I mean wardrobe, and a general consensus that Pilobolus dance rocks. We also liked the living tableaus of the costume designers work. That’s so much better than previous options.
I really enjoyed the O-scars, a lot more than in the last few years.
Only partly because I started TIVO-ing them at 5:30 but didn’t start watching until 7, and fast-forwarded through most of the acceptance speeches as well as the commercials.
I especially liked the Jack Black/Will Farrell song about how comics get no respect.
That was a very funny thing. It just reminds me of how much I miss the big Hollywood musicals, though.
I thought that the commercials were much better than the super bowl commercails.
