Mis Escritos Y Pensamientos

When once the itch of literature comes over a man, nothing can cure it but the scratching of a pen. -Samuel Lover

The Academy Awards

Posted by Christa Joy |

For the first time in my life, last night, I watched the Oscars.  It was...well, I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would.  Most of the nominations were at least actors or movies that I was familiar with, and of course, who doesn't love Steve Martin. 

An appearance by Macaulay Culkin, honoring John Hughs, was a great time of remembering those great movies of my childhood...Home Alone, Uncle Buck, Richie Rich, and My Girl.

I was ecstatic to see Sandra Bullock win Best Actress (I've been on a BIG Sandra Bullock kick.)  UP also won a few awards, which I was happy about.

On a down note, oh...NPH...I know that you can sing.  I've seen Dr. Horrible, but what you did last night was just atrocious.

The Hurt Locker...well, they just cleaned up.  I've never heard of anyone even watching that movie.  Why is this?  Have you seen it?

Overall, it was a good show.  I laughed a lot, cried a little (with the clips from Blindside), and all in all had a rather enjoyable evening.

I've seen The Hurt Locker. If you like military movies, you'd like it. If you don't like seeing people getting blown up and body bombs, then I'd skip it.

Well, I'm glad someone has seen it. I found out that my brother had heard of it, as well. What I saw of it looked like it was made really well, but I can't watch the blowups. I wish I could, so I could watch it, but alas, I guess I'll miss out.
