Silly oscars

[shorterstory]

It only took until 9:39 for me to turn the sound off. The Will Ferrel / Jack Black / John C. Reilly musical number was actually funny, and the buzz I got from laughing is, I think, what got me through the subsequent forty minutes. That and watching Abigail Breslin. She's so cute! Do you think, since Alan Arkin snagged the Oscar from Eddie

I wish you could have seen the Chinese coverage of the oscars. Their red carpet guy was the MOST unprofessional interviewer I've ever seen (and thus, possibly the most entertaining). He kept giggling and saying "I can't believe I'm talking to you." My favorite interview (which I'm amazed they even included in their broadcast):

Celine Dion: Are you from Japan?
CCTV Reporter: No, China.
CD: Huh, Japan?
Rptr: China.
CD: Oh. Hello China people!

Also, since it was a later broadcast, they cut out almost all of Ellen's comedic interludes and every performance except the singing of nominated songs. Jerks.

i totally added you since i felt it would just be silly not to. i mean, it would be like passing you on a street corner and not saying hello.
