- There's no reason it shouldn't start at 8 eastern instead of 8:30. -- nm - Don Homer Feb 28, 06:57 2

    - Yeah...if you have something important to say or do, better say or do it before Best Picture is announced. - Jim Feb 28, 07:03
if that's the result, though, go long. -- nm - Reagen Feb 28, 06:42 1
- Touche. -- nm - David Feb 28, 06:58
I've never seen a more lifeless show. Almost utterly predictable without any energy. - Will Hunting Feb 28, 06:40 3
- yeah, i semi watched about an hour of it and then shut it off....nm - x Feb 28, 06:41
- I'm available -- nm - Ricky Gervais Feb 28, 06:40 1
  - C'mon Ricky, when you mock Downey Jr, it's bad; when Jude Law does it, it's elementary entertainment. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 28, 06:41
Last night was really tight and I appreciated it. There were none of those filler pieces that make no sense. I liked that. nm - Jim Feb 28, 06:35 9
- I woulda taken 1 or 2 monologues -- as it was, the closest we got was Crystal and Hope - Will Hunting Feb 28, 06:46 6
  - Yeah. And where the hell is Nicholson in the front row? He's been MIA for a couple years now, hasn't he? -- nm - Jim Feb 28, 06:50 5
    - Yeah, they definietly didn't have any star power...No Jack/Clooney/Pitt/Jolie/Depp even Winslet and Leo. - Will Hunting Feb 28, 06:57 1
      - Word. And with so many nominees that, while great actors, aren't household names...you needed that star power and it wasn't there. -- nm - Jim Feb 28, 06:58
    - I'm willing to take Clooney as a substitute, but I guess he has malaria or something dumb like that. -- nm - loosilu Feb 28, 06:56
    - he's old hollywood and hasn't been in a big big movie in a while. -- nm - Andie Feb 28, 06:55
    - yep. -- nm - Don Homer Feb 28, 06:53
- I think last year wasteh first year I realized that the hosts introduce people who introduce presenters? isn't that kind of inefficient? -- nm - amanda "bus misser" jones Feb 28, 06:43 1
  - This year we had an introduction for a person who did an introduction. -- nm - Reagen Feb 28, 06:49
