Happy Oscars, everybody!

So, in celebration of a year in which I expect Slumdog Millionaire, Mickey (or maybe Sean), Kate, Heath and Penelope (or maybe Viola) to win, it was nice to receive a little affirmation. The DaColbert Code = MOST RELIABLE PREDICTOR OF OSCARS EVAR. ♥ Stephen's arcane and mystical power FTW.

So obviously I have already seen the results, and all the major awards went exactly as I wanted them to with the exception of Supporting Actress. Taraji P. Henson deserved that one.

Kate Winslet's speech was adorable, but Dustin Lance Black's speech made me wibble.

Taraji? Really? I'm actually REALLY happy that Penelope won it. I'd been swept up with all the Viola hype because I've been SO Doubt-focused, but honestly if I had to pick, I'd take Penelope over ANY of the other actresses. She MADE the film she was in; every scene she was in was better than the ones before and after it, and she SHONE. Utterly deserving. And very fitting that she won it for a half-Spanish role, because she seems to lose the ability to act when in a full English movie. :P

Dustin FTW. That was an amazing speech. I AM SO GONNA BITCH ABOUT HOW SINGAPORE TV CENSORED IT. ASKLDHALKFHHFLADFAS.

I liked Vicky Cristina Barcelona alright, but it was probably one of my least favorite out of all the films people were nominated for (other than Frost/Nixon, which was a good film but so, so dull). Not sure why, but Cruz didn't move me at all. At least not like Taraji did.

And WTF, THEY CENSORED THAT? Ugh. Sometimes I hate the world. I heard booing from other rooms in my dorm. It's a little depressing.

SERIOUSLY HE IS MY BOYFRIEND. I FIND HIM RIDICULOUSLY HOT FOR SOME REASON.

He predicted them all right! He guessed Sean FIRST, and then tried to cheat and guessed Mickey. ;) It's an inside joke, Sean is supposed to be an enemy of his show. XD
