Christmas Come Early: Oscars 2013

Now that we all have our Post Oscars buzz, let's take a step back and evaluate my favorite evening of the year.

The Host

Well, Seth MacFarlane, I had my reservations about you....but you were pretty entertaining, I must say. The choice in host definitely appealed to the younger audience, but overall he did what he does best, make inappropriate jokes and make fun of himself. Seth was entertaining enough, but was he the best choice? Hell no. Bring me some Fey and Poehler. 


The Music

Ohhhhh hell yeah....the Oscars were breathed a little life into them this year by making it a themed night. (80s theme next year?????) Although I wish I could have just watched Les Mis perform every song (mainly Aaron Tveit's), it was quite possibly my dreams all coming true at one time to see these movie musicals perform live. Hudson and Zeta-Jones were incredible, and Les Mis may or may not have induced a panic attack. Then after I thought my inner musical freak couldn't handle anymore, Barbra comes on. I was dead.....then they brought in Adele, and I died again. Yay for people who know how to sing!


So Perfect.

THE WINNERS

Oh Ben Affleck, the whole world is teary eyed over this win, you have come so far my child. Argo winning best picture was a huge shocker, after being snubbed in pretty much every other category. Jennifer Lawrence must be doing something right (and by that I mean being fucking awesome). She took home best actress, but not without making a hilarious fall up the stairs first. Anne Hathaway....obvi I can't say I was upset she won, she was phenomenal.....but there's something about her that can really irritate a person....maybe it's the hair? Daniel Day Lewis took home the golden statue for Lincoln (shocker). What was surprising was his hilarious speech, and then the loving tribute to his wife, swoon, this old guy is a total fox. Finally, Christoph Waltz.... I love you and am so happy he won, he is too adorable and talented.

Globes on Globes on Globes: Female Addition

In case you have been living under a rock or are completely out of touch with any sort of news media, the Golden Globes we last night! Here's a post dedicated to the ladies who made watching all 3 hours bearable....

Let's start with the obvious...

Tina and Amy.

 Ms. Fey and Ms. Poehler reminded the world that they are, in fact, the true funny women of the 21st century. Along with being nominated, they hosted the Globes and really made the show feel like a reunion of old friends rather than pathetic attempts at jabbing celebrities. Although they did poke fun at some winners of the night, such as Anne Hathaway, it was people like Glenn Close who amplified this "Entertainment High School reunion" feel.


Overall these bitches did exceptional, especially with their cameos as nominated actors in fictitious movies...oh and the subtle Tay Swift remark was brilliant.

Taylor Swift obviously isn't use to losing, after Adele won (the much deserved) Globe for "Skyfall"


Jodi Foster.... really moving? But mostly weird, and I felt like I was eaves dropping on a strangers life when they are talking to a close friend really loud.... I guess that was her coming out and retiring? I feel awkward just thinking back.

What about the President of the Hollywood Foreign Press? She was so old I thought she was going to slip and displace her hip on the way to the mic, and she made a pass at Bradley Cooper, who was a MAJOR asshole about it.

Jennifer Gardner won the cutest fucking wife ever award for coming on stage and finishing Ben's speech for him.... god we love you Jen.

Lena Dunham, one of my favorite newcomers finally got the recognition she deserved, after her Emmy snubs. She sweetly accepted the awards along with thanking Chad Lowe. More on "Girls" to come...

Finally, Miss Jennifer Lawrence proved she really is the most charming woman in Hollywood, with her acceptance speech, from "beating Meryl", to thanking her brothers for their torture through the years. You go J. Law.

Overall, it was a gold rush for the ladies last night.
