    Inception really did have excellent sound work.

    Anyway, is it just me, or does James Franco's tux make him look like the Matt Smith on Doctor Who?

    The Wolfman can now put "Academy Award Winner on the box".

    Crazy world we live in.

    Stop looking so nasty hot, Scarlett Johansson.

    Also, you could see it in his eyes...tonight was the night Trent Reznor decided to chase the EGOT.

    It was worth it.

    The effects looked awesome.

    Totally deserved, though. No matter what you may think of the film (I enjoyed it purely as entertainment and WOO MONSTERS), the makeup was fantastic.

    I'm a few minutes behind on my DVR, but Trent Reznor has really cleaned up nice since 1996 (which was probably the last time I'd seen a picture of him).

    Pretty disappointed in ScarJo's dress, she's usually a cert for some mad cleavage.

    I was actually thinking Morgan Freeman was kind of wearing the same outfit as Smith in the opening skit, but I'm watching this on a cruddy projector, so I could be totally wrong.

    Elliot Smith's "Miss Misery" is the best movie song. At least of anything I've ever seen nominated. Period.

    EDIT: From Good Will Hunting, if you're not immediately familiar with it.

    Oh I totally agree about the Wolfman's effects deserving it. I just think its funny when these movies that really aren't anything special (other than the one standout in sound, effects, ect) slap that on the box starting tomorrow morning.

    Also I had no idea Zachary Levi could sing.

    But Randy Newman gave the world this, so I can never hate him:

    Short People Got No Reason To Live

    I want that song in Rock Band so so badly.

    I heard him on some song not long ago and was surprised at his voice. Kind of forgot about it until now. He's pretty good.

    Yeah, I worked in a video store and it was always funny seeing what kind of garbage got to make the "Academy Award Winner" claim.

    Of course, that also happens with actors. Like Gone In 60 Seconds, featuring ACADEMY AWARD WINNER Nicholas Cage and ACADEMY AWARD WINNER Angelina Jolie.
    Fuck ya'll, I still liked that movie. But it ain't "good."

    And I'm actually considering picking up the soundtrack to The Social Network. I loved the music that much.

    I saw both Restrepo and Exit Through the Gift Shop.

    I liked them both, but I'll give the edge to Gift Shop, personally. I probably wouldn't watch Restrepo again.

    Anyone know who the 2 totally random people they cut to when Oprah was talking were? They looked very disinterested and I thought it was a really, really bad take by the director.

    THEN I realized that maybe they were sitting in the seats for Banksy, and the director took the shot knowing he had to do it then, because if they lost (which they did), he'd never get the chance again.

    Just curious because it was pretty random.

    At this point I can't really even understand her God-like media status.

    She's made a living off of exploiting the idle lives of middle-class housewives, and somehow the world treats her like a deity.
