Random reactions to the Academy Awards:
- First and foremost - Christopher Plummer wins!!! Aww finally ... so emotional I cried, literally.
- Can't believe this is only Gary Oldman's first nomination (wtf!?!?). Can't believe Jonah Hill was nominated ... heck can't believe Brad Pitt now has more noms than him #unfair.
- Could've sworn Glenn Close already had an Oscar - guess I was wrong (6 nominations 0 wins to date) - another blasphemy ... again, and Jonah Hill was nominated?
- I don't doubt Meryl Streep deserves the Oscar, but still wish the wealth could've been shared a bit (I'll admit, was really rooting for Michelle Williams) ... also have weird feeling MS may be taking herself out of the running in the future.
- Darn Hugo and its beautifulness for depriving Harry Potter of even just one tech award ... #sosad
- WHY was Twilight featured so in some montage of classics??? Oh wait, Bieber was in the beginning ... that demo ... got it ...
- Not a fan of this more-than-five best picture nominee thing.
- There are a more-than-usual number of gorgeous dresses this year (and no outright atrocity that I've seen). This return to old Hollywood glamour really worked #bestchoiceever. Bonus for Billy Crystal (classic host is classic).
- It's official: Angelina Jolie can even make a trash bag [ish looking thing] gorgeous with her radiance.
- Final thought - congrats to the Artist - originality (ironically by going retro) rewarded.
