Send me another if you can and I'll be on the lookout: unpavedroad@yahoo.com<br /><br />And yes, Jolie's leg thing. Not sure why I didn't write about that! That was ridiculous--plus, she looked anorexic.Joshua Blevins Peckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04675067672065084992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13854278.post-3777980128222968162012-02-29T07:27:46.991-08:002012-02-29T07:27:46.991-08:00yeah...it was always weird to see celebs all dress...yeah...it was always weird to see celebs all dressed in nighttime high fashion when the sun is still out on a sunday...and it IS a waste of 3 plus hours, ha! watching that show is like eating too much of a bad thing and then just feeling sick for too long afterwards. it has zero to do with the creativity and art of film!hidden staircasenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13854278.post-47810934681699676682012-02-28T22:29:21.402-08:002012-02-28T22:29:21.402-08:00It was a lame show. Same here, I guess I don't...It was a lame show. Same here, I guess I don't know why I do it anymore. I think it's too much to resist a gigantic room full of the most famous movie people in the world. In fact you almost have to think it would be a RECIPE for the greatest moments in the world - that much beauty, creativity, intelligence - all together in one place. So how do they manage to mess it up so badly?? There was not a bit of sparkle or spice to to it, the Oscars have become oatmeal. <br /><br />The best moment was when that one guy who picked up an award mimicked Angelina Jolie's stupid pose. When I saw her present already, I was like "what is this? you have got to be kidding!" I mean I'm all for the gorgeous dresses, the looks, the red carpet, the fashion police. Every now and then I can just be gladly shallow and completely enjoy that. But when I saw Jolie, I was just thinking wow, way to ruin everything you've got with one ounce of fakeness, one ounce of too much overconfidence, of revolving around yourself. That really showed in one single moment that the most gorgeous woman, the greatest fashion, all of that, doesn't matter one bit if there is too much awareness of it, or if it's just fake. Elegance and style can only exist alongside humility and some degree of unawareness (is that a word?). It's like someone analyzing their own joke - it's not funny anymore.<br /><br />Anyway, what a letdown. Oh well. Back to books about movies ;) I'd still love to arrange for that photo, did you get my e-mail?

A...I honestly don't know why I watch it myself. All I do is gripe and complain and then feel like I've wasted three + hours when it is over. The best thing about watching it in Los Angeles: we see it live too and when it is done, it's only 8.30! Weird seeing it start at 5ish though.Joshua Blevins Peckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04675067672065084992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13854278.post-73750169384739427072012-02-28T09:05:57.551-08:002012-02-28T09:05:57.551-08:00thank you for this as i steer way clear of this ev...thank you for this as i steer way clear of this event and was actually watching 'the artist' at that time! i just want to see the christopher guest bit. you should do an 'i heart christopher guest' post. i heart christopher guest!hidden staircasenoreply@blogger.com
