This made for a great time watching the Oscars. Thanks to everyone for being along for the ride, and big thanks to Breitbart for organizing it. I am sure that our live blogging of the World Baseball Classic will be just as well-received.

Actually, it was nice not having a lot of schtick from a host every 15 minutes.
nice track at the end here! The previews are better than the whole night, but isn’t that always the way?

2008 was not a very good year for movies–that’s the lesson here. But Big Hollywood rules. Thanks, Andrew & John, for the chance to get to knock it around with the other contributors. Good to get to know y’all a little bit, this way. Later.

Like that a surprise. The Oscars is so laughably predictable The only surprise tonight was Penn. But not really.
I do think Slumdog was a great film in its own way. It’s an original story. It shows people a part of the world that rarely gets explored, yet is very interesting. The story was gritty without being too harsh, moving without being too manipulative. It has something for everyone.
Gee, but Jackman sure didn’t do much. Just three scenes and a good night at the end.
Ah well, good night.

This exercise in running commentary made the Oscars at least halfway bearable. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen for the interesting near conversation. I’ve still got a page of funnybooks script to finish before I pack it in for the night, so I’ll bid you goodnight.

“Those who saw the signs of hatred, I think it is a good time for those who voted against gay marriage to contemplate their great shame and the shame in their grandchildren’s eyes. We need to have equal rights for everyone.”
Way to win over the opposition, Sean. And you can go to hell, you sanctimonious whiner. Perhaps in your magical little world, speaking to your best friends who already believe in gay marriage about gay marriage counts as courage. Perhaps in your magical little world, hanging out with Saddam and Chavez counts as courage, when they whisk you around town in limos while their citizens are murdered in secret prisons. Out here, the rest of us think you’re just preaching to the crowd, and that you’re an offensive political hack to boot — and not just that, you enable dictators who are guilty of human rights abuses of the worst sort. Nobody gets to get on their high horse about marriage after marrying Madonna.

Hmmm….why did Mickey Rourke win Best Actor in every other award ceremony besides this one? As I said, the Academy punished Mickey for his gratitude towards President Bush for keeping our country safe from Islamo-facist terrorism. Instead, it chose to award its biggest donkey, Sean Penn. I would looooove to debate Sean Penn and explain to him why his such an insufferable idiot and jackass.
I have an idea…now that Guantanamo Bay is being closed within the year, maybe Southeren California can help find a home for people like Khalid Sheikh Mahammed. I know Sean Penn could make them feel right at home.

I’d like to thank the Academy for reminding me that 2008 was not a great year for movies.

but there it is. yuch. most popular boy in school wins for message film over a once-in-a-decade performance.
And here he goes. F*** you, Sean Penn, for talking to people like that. Shame like yours for not applauding Elia Kazan? Shame like being a patsy for Hugo chavez? The. Worst.
Andrew, you can’t pay me enough to do this again next year. At my house, we’re taking another ten years off from this garbage unless we’re up there sitting next to Whittle. Ouch. It’s going to take me weeks to shake this off. He thinks he makes it hard? he makes it easy – imperative – to vote for him.

Well, can’t say that I’m surprised, but can say that I’m very excited for all the accolades heaped on this movie tonight. When compared to all the other films, it was a lock. As with anything, it surely got overhyped in recent weeks, but, for those who saw it pre-hype, the amount of it was just right.
And my fiance is ecstatic that all the little kids are on stage now.

Slumdog. Fine director. Okay movie. Weak excuse for “Best Picture.”

and let him know that President Obama is AGAINST same-sex marriage?
Will someone from the Hollywood Press Corps bring this up to him?

I wanted to see Mickey Rourke win that award, but Sean Penn did not disappoint. He brought a triple helping of “colossal self-righteous blowhard” to the table–just what this broadcast was lacking.
“Thank you for this award, and it sure is great living in a racist, homophobic, red-baiting country. Please continue buying tickets to my movies, you backward thinking idiots.”
Thank you Sean, you are the reason this blog exists.

Sean Penn praised Obama and backed gay marriage in front of all those people.
That took guts.

It’s creeping ever closer. I’m turning in for the night. Thanks, all. This was fun…aside from, you know, most of the actual ceremony.

Sean Penn’s speech was exactly as horrid, rambling, and self-indulgent as I expected it to be.
