ATTENTION OSCARS SHOW PRODUCERS : Shave 5 minutes off the show by giving Daniel Day Lewis the statue at the red carpet

Macro made by moi

Seriously.

WTF!

I haven't seen the movie. Actually, I am going to come clean : I haven't seen any of the movies.

That's right. I haven't given a shit about movies for a long time, especially if they are meant to make me ponderous or outright depressed. I think everything went downhill for me after I watched Pier Paolo Passolini's Salo. I just couldn't do cinema easily after that.

Back to DDL.

It's seems that Mr. Day-Lewis here has been sweeping every single major acting award for the past 2 months. My bb Viggo won a few awards but Daniel is one greedy motherfucker ... or should we say the judges are just plain lazy.

Anyhow, I'm scooting over to the Oscars Watch Party over at Comix Club here in NYC. It's sad, but I haven't been to an Oscars party in years. Worse of all, it's the first time in months I go out for fun as in not related to blogging and/or business.

If it weren't a work day tomorrow, I'd totally get smashed Laughing out loud

Hopefully it won't suck.

So which actors and/or movies are your favorites?

I'm not going to be around until after the Oscars. If you're looking for a fun place to crash online, the best place for Oscars buzz is, of course, Oh No They Didn't.

I like DDL ...

... but Blood was a major misstep. The movie was pretentious, tedious, interminable, bad acting, bad direction ... the only thing that kept me from walking out was DDL.

I'd give Julian Schnabel best director almost any other year, but it's got to go to the Coens this year. There was nothing about No Country I didn't like.

But the Oscars ... meh! After Crash won over Brokeback, I've never been able to take them seriously.

QUOTES

"When a religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its professors are obliged to call for help of the civil power, 'tis a sign, I apprehend, of its being a bad one."


— -- Benjamin Franklin, letter to Richard Price, October 9, 1780, quoted from Adrienne Koch, ed., The American Enlightenment: The Shaping of the American Experiment and a Free Society, New York: George Braziller, 1965, p. 93.
