Well that was an Oscar show worthy of DVR FastForwarding. Yawn! Cate Blanchett gets my vote for worst dressed. It seemed as if some old portrait

could have been in that circular frame on her gown. And it is worse than Melissa Leo's because Cate has proven to make great choices in the past.

I thought the opening skit was strangely disjointed and there were very few genuine laughs.

The Kirk Douglas moment made me feel just like I did when watching recent New Year's Rockin Eves and they still had Dick Clark speak. I don't want to sound evil or as if I am trying to marginalize them but it's discomforting to me.

ancient actors who don't give a rat's ass what they do are the best thing about awards shows... - x Feb 28, 07:11 2

I generally don't get into the best/worst dressed...but Cate's dress was the only one of the night that made me say... - Jim Feb 28, 07:09
I actually loved the Kirk Douglas thing. Didn't bug me like Dick Clark did. - Jim Feb 28, 07:06 2
- him hosting would be great. And I bet the SNL guys would join in on any opening song number too. -- nm - Beaker Feb 28, 07:16 1

Cate goes for slightly edgy haute couture, which this was. I didn't care for it, but it wasn't awful. Melissa's, OTOH, was truly awful. - loosilu Feb 28, 07:05 7

  - I am not in any way saying her dress was good, just for the record. - loosilu Feb 28, 07:11 1
    - I hated Leo's on the carpet, but it seemed to work for her. - ty97 Feb 28, 07:13
- Cate looked awful....Leo's wasn't too bad outside the popped collar. - Will Hunting Feb 28, 07:06 3
  - I'm with you on Madsen and Stone. (and clearly we can go back and forth about Leo and Cate all day) -- nm - loosilu Feb 28, 07:09
  - I barely recognized Mandy Moore. And that pixie cut on Michelle Williams - please change that! -- nm - HdnAgnda Feb 28, 07:07 1
    - I kind of like it, but not that extreme blonde. -- nm - loosilu Feb 28, 07:10
