Who watched the Academy Awards... I'm hoping that would be everyone!
Did you guys have favorite moments?
What did you think of Hugh hosting?
What did you think of Slumdog Millionaire being so successful?
Were you happy with the winners? Or did you want someone else to win?
I gotta say that when they had the little dance song about musicals with the couple from mamma mia and then zac/vanessa i would rather have seen Zac with Nikki from Hairspray! That would be have been a lot better. I think people like Nikki better than Vanessa and I'm thinking she is more talented as well ... and Hairspray was a lot better than the HSMs. Ohh well.
I have to say I like Hugh and all.. ok I kinda love him.. but I feel like the Host should have been American. I mean the Academy Awards started in America, its still hosted in America, it was started by Americans... I dunno I just think that America should celebrate its roots more.. but thats just me. I don't have anything against Hugh or Australians or other people lol... I'm half Salvi myself but c'mon America. Or maybe I just totally miss Billy Crystal and Whoppi being hot items for hosting it.
I haven't seen a lot of the movies up for awards this time around but I really want to see them. Slumdog looks amazing and they won a lot. Its incredible. I'm happy for them. Those kids are so cute by the way. It made me happy that they got to be on stage and enjoy the moment.
Man I was really hoping for Meryl to win for best actress. That woman deserves it so much. She is such an amazing actress. Kate is really good too... but I just felt it was time for her. Maybe next year right.
Also I think Sean Penn is amazing and I'm happy he won an award but I gotta say it drives me crazy when actors start rambling political stuff during events that have nothing to do with politics.
