Hmm. Not very impressed by my performance liveblogging. Kind of boring, much like the show. But it's my job, as it were, to make it entertaining regardless. All I know is, there was a point when I was struggling to describe the look on Cate Blanchett's face when she saw her own Best Actress clip, and the word I actually wanted was "embarrassed" (

I appreciated your liveblogging. You captured the essence, so thank you!

Your liveblogging was entertaining! I thought the Oscars were very lowkey this year but I'm attributing that to the fact they had only two weeks to actually prepare. Could it have been better? Maybe. But really, you can't top Jon-Stewart-waking-up-with-George-Clooney with only two weeks or so to do it.

What was Cate's Best Actress clip? (It wasn't "ALL MY BITCHES," was it?)

[cleolinda]

OH MY GOD, it so should have been. No, it was the "THERE IS A HURRICANE IN ME" part where she's telling off the Spanish ambassador. And she kind of made this sheepish "Oh God, ew" face that was hilarious.

That expression cracked me up! It was so human and normal (particularly in response to that line!). I decided to watch that movie today (The Netflicks envelope has been sitting around for awhile.) and thought Cate was great, but the script rather unworthy of the talent in the movie. IMHO.

And I loved your liveblogging. :-) Especially the wardrobe changes in your icon.

out of curiosity, has that clip of the best adapted screenplay nominees surfaced yet? the one where everyone's working except for the coens, who have scripts on their faces and seem to be struggling with writers' block?

[cleolinda]

Heee, no one's mentioned it yet. Try YouTube, it might be there.

I appreciated your liveblogging, since I'm not going to get to see the thing. So cheers!
