It’s 6:45 am and I’m still watching the Oscars. Why? Because I’m old, and by the time I started watching my recording of the Academy Awards at 9 pm I was already exhausted. So yeah, I made it about 3/4 of the way through, and I’m watching the last bit now– and I’m loving it, btw! Seth MacFarlane can pretty much do no wrong in my book (the boob song? C’mon that was classic), and I think the show is really fun. As far as the winners… well… I’m reminded of something my cousin told me many years ago. His theory about the Oscars was a theory of ‘make-ups.’ Actors who didn’t get the Oscar, for whatever reason, for a role that they should have gotten it for, would eventually get a make-up Oscar of sorts. For example, Halle Berry‘s Oscar was really for Dorothy Dandridge, but that was an HBO movie, so they went ahead and gave it to her for Monster’s Ball. I don’t know that this theory applies across the board, but as soon as I saw the 2013 Best Picture winner, I thought Oh that’s nice. They’re making up for his Best Director snub. But hey!It’s the Oscars, and they’re fun, and even if these aren’t my picks (I already told y’all Rust & Bone would win every award in my Oscar ceremony), congratulations are in order to the big winners!
