I'm pretty upset about Crash winning Best Picture last night. Not surprised, but upset. As I said before, of the five nominated pictures, I liked that one the least. If I had my way, Munich would've gotten Best Picture. Great performances, riveting story (OK, except for the end, which dragged), and thought-provoking. But I guess I'm one of the few who thinks that.
It makes me sad to see Jon Stewart getting fairly roundly bashed in the press for his performance as host. I thought he did a great job, and I think most of the people viewing at home agree with me (except Tom Shales, who can bite me). But the audience at the theater? Not so much.
And I guess I'm the only one in the world who likes montages. Seriously, I can't get enough of those. Of course, I also don't really care about winners getting their acceptance speeches cut short. Tough luck! Show another montage!
And George Clooney? I love you. And that love has only grown with time. And if you keep doing what you're doing, it will just continue growing.
Current song in my head:
"Another National Anthem" from Assassins
