Preparing for Tonight's Oscar Telecast

So I'll be commenting on the show after it concludes. Are there any nominees you will be especially pulling for? I guess the winners I'd most like to see are Tilda Swinton, Marion Cotillard, a Visual Effects win for The Golden Compass, and maybe Brad Bird (Ratatouille) for Original Screenplay, though really all 4 of the nominees I've seen in that category are strong. I don't expect to see any of those win, except maybe Swinton, but that's what I'll be hoping for tonight.

I'm hoping for some spectacular fashion. Both dos and don'ts. Maybe Tilda will wear another metallic suit.

I know! These are my favorite Oscars in quite awhile - Tilda, Cotillard, Bardem, Falling Slowly, Golden Compass for effects. The Academy is making some great picks tonight.

Taxi to the Dark Side? Really? Over No End in Sight? Well I guess I'm going to have to watch Taxi to the Dark Side b/c No End in Sight was damn good.

So Cody beat Gilroy and Bird. I can live with that. I liked Juno. And it's probably unreasonable to have every award go to my #1 choice.
