sadlikeknivesWait, is this the beginning of the Cavalcade of the Dead or a separate tribute? I'm a little confused. Okay, just Carson. So we've still got the Cavalcade of the Dead to come.
Ew, Leonardo DiCaprio. I haven't liked him since I was like, twelve. Oh, and the documentary people are next in "What were they thinking?" staging. Really, this is their worst idea EVAR.
I remember seeing an article about this documentary, and how the woman who made it--the lady in the yellow dress, I assume--gave a bunch of the sex workers' kids cameras and made a collection of the photos they took. It was wibbly.
Orli! ORLI! I love you, Orli! You are SO SEXY! Kirsten Dunst is here with her brother, they said in the E! preshow. His name is Christian. Kirsten and Christian. Isn't that special? And another award for The Aviator.
Mike Myers looks kind of rough. But oh, thank God, not Beyonce again. I couldn't have taken it again so soon. And...I'm not sure whether I like this song or not, but it sounds much more like it's supposed to than whatever Beyonce was singing, if that makes sense. I mean, these are the people who are supposed to be singing it, and at least they know the language they're singing in.
Yeah, I don't like Beyonce much.
And then I was on the phone with Telly. At first, I wasn't clear on the whole Catherine Zeta-Jones game, but it became increasingly painfully obvious that it was scripted that way. Sigh.
Zhang Ziyi is so cute. (Is it supposed to be Zhang Ziyi or Ziyi Zhang? Does anybody know which one is actually her familial? It's Zhang, isn't it?) And Jake doesn't look so great with no hair. Tsk. He needs to start growing it back out. Hey, Jake, that movie you're in? You know, the one with Heath Ledger and teh gay sexx0rs? Yeah, when's that one coming out? Enquiring minds want to know. And then I squawked, "HARRY POTTER!" into the phone at Telly and I think I damaged her hearing. Sorry, Telly!
I...have no idea who this tribute is to. Is it the Cavalcade of the Dead yet? No? Then when?...oh, this guy's still alive. *blink*
Commercial break during which Telly doesn't call, so I went to the restroom, where the kittens are corralled due to their attempts to steal my Oscar Night Snackages. They were wailing piteously because they had ransacked the bathroom and pulled down the towels on top of their food bowl. Silly kittenses.
Emmy looks great.
Beyonce changed her dress, thank God, and looks much more appropriate now, but...holy fuck, is that whole thing her necklace??? Wow, that's a lot of bling. There are probably three guys standing just out of sight defending her jewelry. I'm not sure how I feel about her eye makeup, and I'm going to have to listen to my copy of the soundtrack later and let you know what I think of her rendition, but overall, this was much better than her first performance. She was a much more appropriate choice of singer, though they definitely should've let Minnie Driver sing instead.
Telly and I are a little confused about who her Phantom-prop was. There arethree possibilities: Josh Groban, her co-singer if he ever shows up; Gerard Butler, the Phantom from the movie, or; Antonio Banderas. Wasn't he the Phantom on Broadway for a while? I know he sang with Sarah Brightman in the ALW 50th birthday thingy. Anyway, he's due to perform sometime soon and I look forward to it.
Or, the most likely expanation. He's some poor sap of an extra.
Jeremy Irons looks rough.
Hee, "The dog's bollocks"!
Laura Linney's hair still looks like shit.
Aww, the nominee with the I *heart* you thingy. So cute.
Kate looks fantastic. I love that shade of blue. And I really want to see House of Flying Daggers. Five bucks says it's The Aviator...yep.
Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek! I can guess what they'll be presenting! But no, they're presenting awards first. Wait, Sound Editing and Sound Mixing are two different things? Meh. Bring on Antonio!..Antonio needs to wash his hair. And the set's kind of dorky, but it's not Beyonce, so it's an automatic improvement. Thinking back to my (now tragically melted) ALW 50th birthday video, Antonio Banderas sounds much better when singing in Spanish. Mmm.
And on that note, I think I'll move on to entry three.
