Two thoughts
1) Elle peut avoir un nom français, mais Beyonce ne le parle pas....
2) I'm glad Million Dollar Baby won. OK, look: Scorcese has made some of the best films ever made (I remember being a dumbass college boy going to see Goodfellas and being floored - I kinda fell in love with film history through the followup research of watching Taxi Driver), but The Aviator is only getting the press it is because it's a Scorcese film. If anyone else had made it, it would be considered an over-wrought, sadly non-insightful look at someone whose life really deserves some attention. Cate Blanchette notwithstanding, of course. I'm glad it didn't win (and I think "Marty" is too).
Oh, and finally, it's weird being on the left coast and watching the Best Picture award not freaking out about needing to get to bed to sleep off the hangover (not that it helped).

boring show but i got 18/24 which is like a record for me. How annoying was the Ryan acceptance speech. He just has that, "I wan't to fucking punch you" personality.
My fav pick of the eve was Eternal Sunshine for Screenplay. and the mushroom and pepperoni pizza fresh and i inhaled. no shots sorry.
