Academy Awards

  • Mood:
  • Music: Brokeback Mountain theme
  • What I learned Yesterday: Jason and I got AWESOME DEPECHE MODE SEATS FOR THE CONCERT IN MAY!!

Ok the 78th annual Academy Awards has just ended and I am so totally pissed off  that I can barely see straight....some people are sports freaks, I am a movie freak. Just as some people take the Superbowl very seriously, I treat the Academy Awards the same way.

What a total assfest tonights show was. ASSFEST EXTRAORDINAIRE.

Usually I am pretty darn good at picking the winners on Oscar night. Nothing is ever a real shock to me, as I've always got things pretty well pegged. Well, NOT THIS YEAR. I am STUNNED by the outcome of the 2006 Academy Awards.

By far, the best picture of the year was Brokeback Mountain. HANDS DOWN. The movie 'Crash' was good; a really good film to rent on DVD.  I watched it, and I said, "That was a good movie, the best thing about it was Matt Dillons performance, I appreciate their message, now it's time for bed." And I never thought about it again, never in my life thinking that the film would be up for best picture. Not in a million BILLION years. I thought Brokeback Mountain was a shoo-in, because as I said, it was hands down the best film of the year, a masterpiece of cinema. Director Ang Lee is indeed a fabulous director, worthy of much praise and MANY OSCARS FOR THIS FILM. .

Well, first of all, Jason and I were gone for the day, so we TIVO'ed the Oscars. Unfortunately the TIVo stoped recording at 11pm sharp, but the Oscars ran overtime (of course). So Jason and I didn't get to see in real time who won Best Actress, Best Director or Best Picture. We just saw Phillip Seymour Hoffman win for Best Actor for his role as Capote (which was one of the few things I agreed with tonight, and it was a well deserved win at that).

So the TIVO cut off and we were like, "AAAAAAHH!!!!!!" And we had no idea who won 3 of the major awards of the evening, so I had to come online to find out here, and I just about DIED when I saw that Brokeback Mountain DID NOT WIN BEST PICTURE! They won every other major award this year for best picture, but when it came down to the Oscars, they didn't win! THEY WERE ROBBED!!! COMPLETELY ROBBED!!

Can you tell how pissed I am? I am furious. It turns out that Ang Lee won best director thank goodness....but then they didn't win best picture. ROBBED. Completely. I saw an after show interview, and he rightfully seemed very ticked off. He even said how he couldn't understand it...his film won every other major 'best picture award' except the Oscar. How totally dissapointed he was. I was so dissapointed myself, I can't even imagine how he must feel!

Reese Witherspoon won best actress for her portrayal of June Carter-Cash in 'Walk the Line'. Thank goodness the Academy had some brief moments of lucidity when voting this year, because Reese deserved this win, big time. Everyone knew she was going to win, thank goodness this wasn't another upset tonight because I don't think I could handle anymore dissapointment. I think this was the only category that I wasn't dissapointed in this year.

George Clooney winning best actor in a supporting role? No way. I know that everyone is madly in love with George, he's a great actor, a great guy, and an even better movie star. He is also a great director and talented all around dude....however this award should TOTALLY have gone to Paul Giamatti for his role in Cinderella Man. I knew he would never get it, because the Academy loves George Clooney and he really was due for an Oscar. He has been in the business for a long stinkin' time and he totally deserves some respect and recognition, I completely acknowledge that. I wrote a review of Syriana a while back.... I hated that film. YAWN CITY. George was ok in it, but I felt that his performance was forgettable. But that's just me. I like George, but Paul Giamatti...he's the real winner in my book. I'm soon going to put together my list of the10 most overlooked and under-rated actors in hollywood and he will be on that list. Even if Matt Dillon had won, I would have been way happier than when George Clooney did. Matt Dillon was the best thing about the movie 'Crash'. It takes a brave man to take on a role like that...he did a fabulous job. He's come a long way, maybe even a bit longer way than George Clooney. Does anyone remember seeing Matt in 'Little Darlings' from the early 80's? hehe. Boy, he's come a Looooong way! Good for him for even getting nominated.

Best supporting actress...Rachel Wiesz for 'The Constant Gardener'. Are you kidding me? The best thing about that film was Ralph Fiennes who was completely amazing, and he was totally overlooked by the academy. Shame on them for that.  I felt that Rachel Wiesz performance was 'good' at best. Nothing special at all, and certainly not Oscar Worthy.  The best performance  by an actress in a supporting role should have gone to Michelle Williams for Brokeback Mountain. She was fabulous. WAYYY better than Rachel Wiesz. Any of the other actresses could have won and I would have felt better about it than Rachel Wiesz winning. She totally did not deserve this. What was the academy thinking when they cast their ballots this year????

Let's see, what else pissed me off....Did I mention that Crash beat out Brokeback Mountain? No, I wasn't joking....no seriously, it did.  I haven't been this ticked off by the Oscars since 'Lord of the Rings' lost out to 'Chicago' in 2003. I don't even think I was as angry then as I am right now, because I KNEW that Lord of the Rings wasn't going to win because the Academy NEVER votes for sci-fi or fantasy films.  When Return of the King finally won, it was indeed a shocking and wonderful moment in Oscar history.

It just makes me so angry when a movie wins the Oscar for all the wrong reasons. 

In short, I think that everything that won, that shouldn't have won, won for all the wrong reasons. Politics, popularity, promotion, money money money.

I didn't even get to see any pre-show footage, so I didn't get to see many of the dresses etc. I'll be back tomorrow to talk about who looked the best etc., and I will carry on this blog with such exciting topics as;

Classic men's tuxes are back and shnazzy as ever at the Oscars! So far my pics for best dressed dudes at the Oscars are-
Joaquin Phoenix, George Clooney

My best dressed women at the Oscars (I haven't seen all the dresses yet but I'll be back with more tomorrow!)-Michelle Williams and Reese Witherspoon

Keanu and Sandra-You guys looked great!

Worst dress I've seen so far was Charlize Theron...why would she hide herself with all that saggy, baggy extra fabric? Yuck!

I'm going to bed now, I'm tired and angry...I must get some sleep before I continue with my Oscar coverage....
