Even more recent than CHICAGO...<BR/><BR/>And I personally like the animated picture award. As the mother of two, it's often the only category in which I've seen a quorum.<BR/><BR/>Now to check and see where SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE is playing--any dance ending that rivals DIRTY DANCY is my kind of movie!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3001434439078518468.post-91479485765885603422009-02-24T00:01:00.000-05:002009-02-24T00:01:00.000-05:00I DID live blog the Oscars.

The "Musical is Back" tribute was one of the dumbest Oscar numbers I can remember--especially when I couldn't help wondering when the musical had left, exactly. Didn't Chicago clean up a few years ago? I would have thought a musical number then would have been more appropriate. At times, this award show felt like it was trying really hard to be the Tonys . . .<BR/><BR/>Still, all in all I enjoyed it, and I thought Jackman did a much better job than I thought he would. I also liked that the awards got spread around at least a bit more than they have in recent years. Shows that end up raking in 11 or 12 statues end up being anticlimactic and boring for me. In any case--thanks for posting!brycemoorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16551239249927256935noreply@blogger.com
