*sigh*
I didn't do very well picking out this year's Oscar winners. :( I only got six right for Art Direction, Directing, Documentary Feature, Film Editing, Sound Editing, and Adapted Screenplay. For the longest time, I didn't think I would get any at all. It was well into the show before I finally got one right (Documentary Feature).
Oh, well, at least I managed to beat Mom. She only got three right. :P
Anyway, the Oscars were good. I thought Jon Stewart did a great job hosting. Man, those fake ads were hilarious!
The fashion was a bit disappointing, though, especially since everybody was saying that the trend would be to dress in old Hollywood glamour to complement the theme of the show, which I didn't really see much of. What was Naomi Watts thinking when she decided on that dress? *gags* I predict it'll be showing up on the Worst Dressed lists for sure. And I don't get why everybody was raving about Michelle Williams' gown. I guess the style was okay, although I could have done without the large ruffles, but that color was ugly. (Granted, I'm not a fan of orange or orange-y yellow, so I'm admittedly biased.) As for best dressed, my favorite was definitely Sandra Bullock's dress, with Keira Knightley and Ziyi Zhang coming in at second and third, respectively. I also rather liked Meryl Streep's gown. It would have been better in a different color -- she wore brown -- but the style was nice. (Edit: Oops, it was purple, which is infinitely better than brown.)

Bullock's was pretty nice. And I would have liked Theron's dress if it weren't for, you know, the GIANT BOW OF UGLY DOOM sitting on her shoulder. What was up with that?

Nope. Just an ugly dress.
