Helen Mirren, who won the Oscar for Best Actress portraying Queen Elizabeth in The Queen is a damned goddess.  She made those other women who are half her age look like rotting zombies. 


martinscorsese.JPGMartin Scorsese FINALLY won an Oscar, despite being ignored in the most shameful way for the last thirty years.  Seriously, that's the work of voodoo.  You don't make movies like Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The Aviator, Cape Fear and not win ONE Oscar.  That's like saying Jesus didn't perform enough miracles, so we aren't going to call him the messiah.  Unless you are Jewish, and then I guess it's okay.  The Aviator was one of the best movies I have ever seen, and The Departed was amazing. Which may explain why it won Best Picture.

Adopt an orphan? Go gay?  He's got the Scorsese taint on him.  He's like the greatest actor of modern times and he'll have to wait for his award posthumously.  He needs to get away from the Scors - that guy's got bad Oscar mojo or something.



I am sure I have left off some great moments, like Will Ferrell and Jack Black doing the "why don't comedians ever win an oscar" routine.  Which, by the way, is a good point.  Making me laugh is infinitely cooler than making me cry. 


Honestly, crying should be saved for this face:

Speaking of which, what was the problem with Kiki Dunst?  I like her, I actually think her snagglepuss is pretty, but she looked downright busted in the joint last night.  As Jay said, 'those bangs ain't workin' honey.'  And cap sleeves? Ugh.

Nicole Kidman looked straight-up injected.  She looked like a damn mannquin standing next to a real human.  What's up with her face?  It is okay to have a wrinkle dammit, just look at Keith.  He seems to be embracing his age.  What is he, like 60 now?

Jack Nicholson was coked up.  Totally.  That's it.  This picture makes me want to bust out some John Cougar Melloncamp.
