Thread: Academy Awards

Ok, so I hadn't watched the AA in years because it was too political. So last night I decided to watch it because I wanted to see Al Gore pontificate & talk down to us little people so i could throw cotten balls at the TV. It didn't happen, he was gracious & I almost liked him, don't agree with him, but....
I really enjoyed the whole show, it was like it used to be, the ladies were glamerous, beautifully gowned, no private parts showing (remember J-Lo?) the gents were gents.

I remember how J-Lo's dress looked on Trey Parker

LMAO!!

Actually Migi I had a similar response. Being doubly blessed with both A) a wife and B) a job that ends at 4 oclock... I ended up watching the entire show from start to finish.

In the past decade or so I've been looking on awards shows as pretty much the death throws of a mudered culture... and a lot of Canadians have been commenting that as close as we are to US culture, especially entertainment, when we watch awards shows it just looks like aliens. There is nothing of the culture we know on display there.

However... I thought yesterday was all class. The host was fine, and like you said, everybody was so nicely composed.

The biggest change was the speeches. Finally the 8 minute list of meaningless thank yous was greatly reduced. Only a handful of people came completely unprepared to say a single think except thanking their agent. Wittiker (Sp) and the Queen lady had great speeches. The presenters wer rarely painfully, painfully lame (except the kids, but thats ok they were cute).

Two thumbs up from Dr. Knuckles.
