I was also pleased that Avatar was rcognized for what was wonderful about it: its technical achievements, and not for the film as a whole.

I just love the Oscars, the good, the bad, and the ugly.
I love them too!

I liked the lighting, but I like things pretty (really) dark. I agree that there was a moment during the street dance sequence, where one couple was spotlighted, where I wished that the rest of the stage had been slightly brighter.

From my view Sandra Bullock (who I’m not a particular fan of per se) stole the evening. Her dress which was gorgeous and sufficiently over the top – which every dress at THE most glamorous spectacle of the year should be- her acceptance speech which seemed totally relaxed (yay Lopressor) and yet gracious and charming (let’s face it: when a winning actress bursts into tears during her acceptance speech I just think she is auditioning for upcoming parts), plus the fact that days before she actually showed up to accept her Razzie award for worst performance of the year- how freakin’ cool is she? Too bad I’m not a fan but maybe I will try to like her more now.

Ornamental Kale! Perfect! Lmao.

Sandra Bullock did look amazing! She seemed sincere in her acceptance speech.

I thought Monique looked amazing too. Poised and elegant.
