Gentle enough for Daily Peruse...

Some random thoughts and suggestions concerning last night's Oscars....

  • What is the problem with staying on time? Orchestra music blares over winner's acceptance speeches, Ellen DeGeneneres frantically tries to moves things on; let's get rid of the Mummunschanz puppet show and the stale, canned humor that presenters have to deliver. No more dance numbers, too. It's all about the winners; it's their night they should have a least a minute for their speeches. See next thought.
  • Winners have only 45 seconds. If it's a group win, it kills me when one asshole won't shutup; then when another person is about to give there thank-you's the music swells. It surprises me that there no blood has been shed yet. The group should get together BEFOREHAND to get their thank-you's together. One representative should thank all parties contributed to the group win. Each member should only be allowed 10 seco0nds. No jokes, no quotes, no mention of kids. "Thank You to my friends and my family", that's it!
  • " Thank You, Jesus". I don't think that Jesus/God/the Almighty had anything to do with anyone winning an Oscar. If there is a God, is He busy watching awards shows? That causes me to wonder what the also-rans did to lose.
  • Celine Dion needs to cut her hair. She is too long in the tooth to have hair that long. Unless she is paying homage to Crystal Gayle.
  • Philip Seymour Hoffman needs to WASH his hair. Maybe times are tough and he sleeps in the restrooms at Kodak Theater. Winning an Oscar doesn't mean instant success. Where is Cuba Gooding, J.R.? Think about it, Jennifer Hudson.
  • Wouldn't it be refreshing to see Jack Nicholson squinting and bobbing his head trying to get a peek at the stage from his nosebleed seat? I'm so sick of seeing him holding court at awards shows and Lakers games! I hope he's bald for a role; white men can't carry off a bald head. That, the sunglasses and the shit-eating grin are too much to bare.

Help me out...
