Best Documentary Short Subject

By jelewis8 ⋅ February 27, 2005 ⋅ Post a comment

Natalie Portman continues to wear tissue paper like it’s friggin’ burlap. Best Documentary Short Subject: I don’t know much about the category, so I’ll leave it alone… No I’m not. That guy is red, but it may be the lighting. I hate to be elitist, but this guy needs to wrap up. Good. You had [...]

Whewwwww!

This is tougher than it looks.

Winner for Best Sound Mixing. – My pick: The Incredibles (Randy Thom, Gary A. Rizzo and Doc Kane) – Oscar pick: Ray (Greg Orloff, Bob Beemer, Steve Cantamessa, Scott Millan) Holy crap, Salma and Penelope are INDISTINGUISHABLE from each other. Overheard: I’d love to see those two make out. Hmmm…mustn’t think about it. Winner for [...]

Best Cinematography

Winner for Best Cinematography. – My pick: The Aviator (Robert Richardson) – Oscar pick: The Aviator (Robert Richardson) Kate Winslet looks unquestionably beautiful tonight, and her accent is loverly. This guy looks and sounds somewhat like the Count Rugan from The Princess Bride. I love that whole six-fingered thing. This was a worthy award, one [...]

Best Live Action Short, Best Animated Short

Not interested, but I’ll leave my comments snark-free for those who love this sort of thing… Jeremy Irons is an enigmatic figure, but he’s got comic timing. For the winner of Best Live Action Short: I hope she drinks Guinness. Dude for Ryan is INTENSE! I’m kind of scared by Lorenzo Lamas look-alikes anyway, but [...]

Honorary Oscar

Who found this hobo who looks like Al Pacino? They should be given an award for best makeup. Best Performance by a Hobo who is supposed to be Al Pacino trying to act like Dustin Hoffman. A classic. I’ve never seen Al looking so teleprompt-ery before. And he goes on, and on, and on…finally. Thank [...]

Best Visual Effects – My pick: John Dykstra, Scott Stokdyk, Anthony LaMolinara and John Frazier for Spiderman 2 – Oscar pick: John Dykstra, Scott Stokdyk, Anthony LaMolinara and John Frazier for Spiderman 2 Not the most memorable, but a good win.

Some Comments and Best Adapted Screenplay

So I wasn’t so impressed with Chris Rock saying he wouldn’t bash Bush, and then went and bashed him for five minutes, comparing the war and deficit to running a Gap store. Yep, it’s totally comparable. As Greg Piper says, only “vehement Bush-haters and intellectually lazy non-political types” would find that funny. Adam Sandler is [...]

Best Editing

Winner for Best Editing. – My pick: Collateral (Jim Miller and Paul Rubell) – Oscar pick: The Aviator (Thelma Schoonmakerl) Oh, Marty this, Marty that. Looks like a huge Martin Scorsese blow-fest tonight.

I hope the guy from Supersize Me wins. Cuz it’s the only one I know about. But a brothel movie won. Cool.
