8:01 – This is stupid. But CONGRATS! on your new grandson, Regis!
8:02 – Gosh Regis is annoying, this is going to be a very long 45 mins.
8:06 – Laura Linney looks nice, but too boring in that strapless black dress. She should try something a little more daring. javier Bardem looks totally different with out that hair!
8:13 – Rachel Zoe is praised by Jennifer Garner. Anyone praising Rachel Zoe is very strange to me – I always think she looks like a very orange piece of leather.
8:18 – The oldest Oscar bleacher fan attempts to take the microphone from Regis, but he evades her. That would have spiced up this carpet immensely.
8:29 – That was so boring we stopped blogging.
8:31 – Oh Writers Strike, look what you did.
8:31 – So I totally didn’t understand that whole CGI beginning, it was hokey!
8:35 – Jon Stewart looks very, very small on that stage.
8:40 – I liked Jon’s monologue. Jennifer looks great. Damn you, Rachel Zoe!
8:42 – The first Oscar goes to “Elizabeth: The Golden Age” for costumes! Oh dear, she looks exactly what I thought a costume designer would. Her speech was awesome and it was short! It took her longer to reach the stage than to say her speech. Awesome, let’s keep this up – I have a paper I am supposed to be writing.
8:50 – Wow. During the “touching” portion of that Oscar montage, the background music was “My Heart Will Go On”. Was that necessary?
8:53 – NO ONE SAID MICHAEL SCOTT WOULD BE MAKING AN APPEARANCE!
8:54 – Love Steve!!!! Brad Bird looks like Mr. Incredible, and a Bird! His name fits him!
8:58 – The little french makeup artist is so cute!!!!
9:02 – So Amy Adams sounded good, thats the important thing to remember. B believes the Oscars are running a little ahead of schedule. She also thought “Transformers” was “Speed” so I don’t know if you really want to believe her.
9:15 – A fight has broken out over Jennifer Hudson and her clothing choices. Don’t we already know that Javier is winning this award? Why are they even showing the other nominees?
9:18 wow Javier, what a suprise………
9:23 – He was so cute and happy and speaking Spanish.
9:28 – We all agree that this world is better off with Owen Wilson alive than dead.
9:31 – The French are cleaning up this year. Never would have happened a few years ago.
9:33 – The announcer lady just mispronounced the name of the winner of best animated short film. What is going on here?
9:35 – B. knew that song. And Grandpa is in our trunk.
9:46 - McAvoy is absolutely adorable. Can he live in our shower too? PLEASE!
9:50 Slightly tired of all the montages, golly writers! Well, at least you are back now.
9:58 – It is a sad, sad day when Miley Cyrus can pull off an introduction better than Katherine Heigl.
10:01 – I don’t think the Hollywood types appreciated the “baby” joke, but I know that we did!
10:06 – “Dame Judy” and “Halle” are wonderful!
10:09 – Hey! Forest Whitaker! Did anyone see him in that awesome Lifetime movie???
10:21- Well now it is just me, sitting alone here, watching the oscars. BB and Gigi stepped out for a moment. I think to get coffee, maybe not. So what was up with that 4th nominated song? Jack Nicholson! Nothing says entertainment like a creepy old man.
10:35 – Wow, the honorary oscar winner looks wonderful for 90+!!! And his family is adorable! I bet this was a fun day/night for them!
10:46 – Does anybody else think that the guy playing the prince/patrick dempsey character has a freakishly large chin?
10:55 – We are back! Thanks Z! So how sad was it that the girl didn’t get to thank people but John Travolta got to come back on stage for a lame gag?
10:57 – Awww….Yay Jon! Jon is one classy guy.
11:00 – Cameron Diaz, besides looking washed out and one could even say, dowdy, has trouble with the word cinematography.
11:01 – Apparently Z and Gigi have been stalking Paul Dano. Paul, call them at 1-800-I-Wnt-You.
11:02 – And now, the In Memoriam.
11:06 – Whatever B! This from the girl who wrote this on my facebook wall: “I made a list of places where we will be going this summer when we stalk JKras. Start packing for Massachusetts!”
11:11- Nice Gigi! I almost wrote just G, but for some reason that seemed wrong.
11:14 – Vanessa Roth and/or Cynthia Wade just made some really unfortunate faces.
11:16 – She’s going to regret that. None of these are really feel-good movies. I am really sad that Castro didn’t get to come.
11:19 – Yes, we did just break out into “Can You Feel The Love Tonight?” You guys didn’t?
11:19 – I LOVE elton john’s pink glasses! Anybody know where I can get a pair?
11:25 – Strippers everywhere rejoice!
11:27 – This night is getting a little long for us. Z wants to win Heidi Klum’s dress, GG has a futurein headwrap design, and I want to play more James Bond.
11:31 – While Z and GG debate Helen Mirren’s dress, I am enthralled as she teases us with her words.
11:33 – Z and I have both confessed our crushes on Tommy Lee Jones. Johnny Depp appears to be sharing his suit jacket with Ryan Seacrest. I don’t understand it.
11:35 – Damn-it , really? Daniel Day-Lewis?!!! He already has an Oscar!!! And how is yelling worthy of an oscar? It that is all it takes I should have like 20 of those things!!!
11:38 – True, Z, true. You should have like 20 Oscars.
11:43 – Besides Tilda winning, these Oscars have been very predictable.
11:46 – The Coen brothers had some great speeches tonight. I may have to see this movie.
11:48 – And now I shall write my Women of American History final.
11:53 – And so the Oscars end. Early. I even enjoyed myself a little, though they were very predictable. Signing off for Z, GG, and BB. Night.
