Wow! Shirley Bassey, 76, blew the doors off the Dolby Theater with her rendition of the Goldfinger theme a little while ago. When she hit that last note she got a well deserved standing ovation. Amazing! |

I tuned in for 2 minutes. That was long enough to see a  host get wildly applauded for anti-Christian and in particular anti-Catholic bigotry.
So, I turned it off. The Oscars are usually nothing but Hollywood trying to convince the hicks how virtuous they are. |

Personally, I don't have much interest in watching Hollywood fellate itself. |

Kristen Stewart looked like she had been rode hard and hung up wet. |

host get wildly applauded for anti-Christian and in particular anti-Catholic bigotry. If you like that sort of thing, then that's the sort of thing you'll like. And, yeah, Kristen Stewart is just a skag. I've never understood her appeal. But, then, if you like that sort of thing . . . |

Just watched Dame Shirley's bit online. Amazing that she still has those pipes at 76. |

"host get wildly applauded for anti-Christian and in particular anti-Catholic bigotry." Really? I must've missed that part. Or I just don't get bothered as much as some during comedy sketches (funny or not) |

Doctor Who special on BBC America, or Hollywood patting itself on the back? Doctor Who won. |

Bassey was good, but so was Adele. It was a night of great musical performances, from the Les Miz cast to Streisand to Norah Jones. Tacitus: Best host ever! I don't know about that, but MacFarlane's certainly one of the funnier ones I've seen in quite a while. The segment with William Shatner as Capt. Kirk was great, particularly the re-enactment of 'Flight' with sock puppets: YouTube link Then there's his patriotic ditty 'We Saw Your Boobs' of course: YouTube link |

I didn't watch, but those two bits were great! Thanks, 28mm. |

Didn't watch it either. Read about some of it later on. |

Sorry I missed Dame Bassey and Adele. Couldn't care less about the rest of the show, or the natterheads involved. |
