It was a hell of a year, but i'm sure it's pretty enjoyable. Again, i caught the live telecast from NTV7, i kinna do it every year. Alright, before i start with the oscar after show thought, allow me to have a little word to the pre-show programme, the breakfast show, which was prepared by the tv station. That was so fucking unbelievable lousy! The host are 2 fucking dumb whores, or maybe 1, the male anchor wasn't that bad, but the stupid bitch host didn't even know the real name of the show is called Academy Awards, not before the male anchor hinted her?!?! I assumed this is the first time they did this kind of speacial pre-show programme, (and i hope it's the last 1, I'd rather watch red carpet arriving show) as i didn't see it in previous years, they should expect a big amount of audiences must be some crazy oscar fans! Then shouldn't the host be more professional, shouldn't they done some research before they host the show?! They are so unprepared, they know nothing about Oscar. So, don't expect them to be able to name the film when some nominated film clips were showing, or even list out the 5 films which were up for the Best Picture! Making it worse, they invited some freaks who were so-called gurus and experts of the film industry?!?! What the fuck?!?! When the gurus were asked who they think would win the awards, they answered, George Clooney for Best Actor, Cate Blanchett for Best Actress, And Micheal Clayton for Best Picture?!?!?! Who the hell on earth didn't know that those were all the darkest horse that they had no chance in hell to upset the frontrunners?!?! I know it's not a hit in this country, nobody would expect much, but i think at least they could've done it in a more simple way, not to make it 'so' happening to make themselves look like a fool.
The winners. Day-Lewis, Swinton with her remarkable dress, gorgeous Cotillard, and hot Bardem, and none of them is American!
Back to the show, all i can say for this year is 'wow', of cause not the ceremony, but the results. I did awfully bad for prediction, but i was right for Marion Cotillard. Normally, after the first award handed out, you would starting to have the clue on who's gonna be the night's owner, for the first year, i couldn't even tell the big winner not till the last two awards. No Country for Old Men didn't sweep much, it only won four. It's so full of surprises, started with the first costume design, who wouldn't think it's in the hand of Atonement? No Oscar for Giant Robots? I thought it wouldn't take all, but not even 1? Tilda Swinton for her 'not so much as an upset' win. She won with the 'what the hell kinna outfit is that' dress was pretty hilarious (When i saw her, i swear to god, hei, honey, i'm sure you gonna on the list!). The Bourne Ultimatum surprisingly swept 3, which made it the second movie with most awards won. Marion Cotillard! (Sorry for Julie Christie for having the same stylist with Swinton.) Cinematography to There Will Be Blood, yes!Beside that, this year ceremony is kinna dull, judging on this year is the 80th year, the show running so rush but still took 3 and a half hours. Jon Stewart was pretty good, i would hit it. That's about it. Some of my favourite moments of the show are, Javier Bardem winning speech, Cotillard win, 'Falling Slowly' performance, Scott Rudin thanking his partner and proving that an out gay man can win an Oscar (well it happened before actually).
Here for the list of winners.
