These dances and dancers are incredible!
And I liked James Taylor singing for the In Memoriam tribute. |

Beautiful speech by Sandra Bullock (it seems that the Oscars are following what the Golden Globes are -- although I have to admit I'm hoping that Avatar doesn't win Best Picture).

I'm not disappointed in any of the winners or the presentation, I think it went off without a hitch. Really nice for once.

Well seeing as I haven't seen a new movie or been to the movies in over 3 years I mostly watch the Oscars to see what dresses they are wearing. I thought there were better dresses this year then in past years.

Ditto! All the ladies really. Beautiful, funny, glam and insightful. All of them have their chops by now. Just getting there. Here's to the ladies.

I wonder who designed the set, it was more glamorous than in recent years! Fabulous! My favorite part! (which means someone is gonna call here (my work) and want us to recreate it any day now....laugh) What was the running joke with Clooney? My favorite dress was Jennifer Lopez. HOT! The dancers were amazing and the sound was even good. I agree with Jet, it went off without a hitch. Great fun!

The hitch came when the Short Documentary film "Music By Prudence" set in Zimbabwe won. The director went to the Podium to accept the Oscar and the Producer, a woman, pulled a Kanye West moment. As for the fun quotient, I will give it an 8. Trust me, an 8 is much fun in my book.

Good for her!
Not exactly a Kanye moment....excerpted from http://oscars.movies.yahoo.com/blog/...y-kanye-moment by Lindsay Robertson
"Turns out the lady in purple wasn't a showboating entertainer attempting to steal the spotlight from the real winner -- "Lady Kanye" was a credited producer of the film (her name is Elinor Burkett). In other words, unlike Kanye West, Burkett did have a legitimate claim to the Oscar microphone. Or at least part of it. Each producer claims credit for the idea of "Music By Prudence," the inspiring story of a Zimbabwean singer/songwriter who was born disabled. But the Academy's strict rules on acceptance speeches only allow time for one person to speak. Clearly neither filmmaker wanted to surrender the speech to the other. (In fact, if you watch the video carefully, you can see that Williams was waiting in the aisle when the award was announced, and seemed to race to the stage with remarkable speed.) In contrast to the Kanye West incident, which occurred only during the live TV broadcast, a backstage Oscar "thank-you cam" shows that Burkett was still pursuing Williams even after the televised fracas. According to Salon.com, which wrangled separate phone interviews with both Williams and Burkett shortly after the incident, the two filmmakers have been in a dispute about the film for over a year. Burkett, critically acclaimed author of several nonfiction books about subjects like the AIDS crisis and abuse in the Catholic Church, says the movie was her idea and that Williams "hadn't even heard of Zimbabwe before [she] told him about this." She also says the two clashed over the film's direction. Their argument resulted in a lawsuit that was "settled amicably out of court." Burkett also accuses Williams of not passing along invites to parties the two were invited to for the film, and even says that her race to the stage was intentionally impeded by Williams' mother's cane. Williams disputes Burkett's account of the cane-tripping incident, saying his mother was just getting up to hug him. He also claims he was as much a part of the film as Burkett, citing the money he spent to fly to Zimbabwe to put the film together after Burkett told him about seeing Prudence perform." --------------------------------- Another "hitch" was The Cove Oscar speech getting cut off for activist message: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_490305.html

It did seem a bit awkward, now that you mention it...I had forgotten. I was probably trying to figure out how many fly lines they had, and legs and what the sparkly stuff was around the proscenium.
