Oscars: Terminated
The 77th Oscar Awards are now finished. I didn't see hardly any of the films involved, so I can't really complain about the winners or the losers, except to say this:
Natalie Portman deserves an Oscar. Give that girl an Oscar, please?
Oh, and Martin Scorsesee? Never saw Raging Bull, or Gangs of New York or anything else by him, but isn't he about due?
And for the love of humanity, when oh when will John Williams win another fucking Oscar? C'mon, the man has written some of the most memorable music ever paired with celluloid, and he's only won three of them? Jaws, Star Wars and E.T., that's it?!? The man has been nominated 43 times already, give it up to Johnny already!
One flick I did catch and feel qualified to comment on was the Best Animated film. I saw The Incredibles and Shrek 2, and I think the right film won that award.
Oh, and did you catch the snazzy music they played at the beginning and end of the ceremony, and at various points when going to or from a commercial? The one with the pounding drums at the beginning? The one that sounded like the theme to The Terminator? Man, Arnold is really starting to flex his muscles now that's he the governor :-)
