So here we are again. The Biggest Night in Hollywood.
Thanks again Kat for joining me. It was fun doing the Red Carpet show with you.
Angela: Neil Patrick Harris - wow. Singing in a sequined covered jacket. LOL. Interesting.
Looking forward to Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin hosting this year. Though I absolutely loved Hugh Jackman last year.
Kat: Okay, bringing out the best actors and actresses was weird.
Love Neil Patrick Harris and the number, but when they cut to the audience you couldn't see who they were point to.
Here come Steve and Alec!!!!
Angela: Yeah, I'm not sure what was with the best actor/actress lineup. It was odd.
Great entrance by Steve and Alex. Gotta love the introduction Steve gave for Alec.
"And then no matter what they nominate Meryl Streep." Aww.
Kat:
"There's that damn Helen Mirren."
"Steve that's DAME Helen Mirren."
I love how they point to Gabourey Sidibe and she's like, stuck in a corner.
"They just don't give Oscars to stand up comedians...like anyone has to tell you that."
LMAO @ pulling out their 3D glasses for James Cameron.
Steve just killed the sacred sprites - lmfao.
Angela:
I loved the Damn Helen Mirren quote.
George Clooney did not look amused.
"Over here is the Inglorious Basterds section"
"And over here are the people that made the movie"
Not as funny as I've seen in years past though. This IS the Oscars after all.
Kat:
You're right, not as funny. But still fun.
George Clooney does NOT look amused.
This is you - *points to Taylor and Zac* - in five years.
I like Penelope Cruz's dress.
Angela:
I think Penelope's accent is getting stronger. What's up with that?
Yeah, George really was NOT amused.
Best Supporting Actor - defo going to Christoph Waltz.
Kat:
Yep, and he did win it. He was phenomenal. Evil but interesting. Job well done and I'm glad he got it.
Where the hell do they have Ryan Reynolds? It looks like Scottie's gonna beam him up any second now.
Angela:
Congrats Christoph!
I don't have a clue where they have Ryan, but he's looking good anyways - presenting the Best Picture nomination for The Blind Side. I haven't seen it yet, but its definitely on my list to see.
Kat:
The commercial for Jimmy Kimmel made me laugh - I loved the "I'm F***ing Ben Affleck" vid.
Aww, I love the animated picture segment.
I'm betting Up will win, but I loved The Princess and the Frog. I want to see The Secret of Kells.
And..........Up wins it. No surprise.
Angela:
I liked the 'interviews' with the animated characters.
No surprise on Up winning it. That was definitely expected. I want to see Up, The Princess and the Frog, and The Secret of Kells.
Amanda and Miley Cyrus together presenting. I like Amanda's dress.
Kat:
They're not doing full songs this year? That sucks. I like the songs nominated this year.
I'm hoping one of the songs from The Princess and the Frog wins. Though I do like the song Take It All.
Ooooooooooooooh, Colin Farrell!!!! With him in it, I might actually see Crazy Heart.
Crazy Heart wins it. See, if they'd done the songs I could have seen CF sing *sigh*
Angela:
I want to see Crazy Heart. I didn't realize that Colin Farrell did the signing. Why didn't they do the songs this year?
District 9 for Best Picture - I haven't seen this either, but I want to.
I could do without the RDJ glasses - but I like his bow-tie.
Best Original Screenplay - I think that Hurt Locker will win this. Though I'd like to see Inglorious Basterds win, which is one of my favorite movies of the year.
Kat:
Yeah, I'm all about watching CF sing.
*sigh* The Hurt Locker wins it. I SO wanted Inglourious Basterds to win.
RDJ and Tina Fey made me laugh.
Pretty in Pink and Ferris Beuller for a John Hughes segment.
Angela:
I'm not a huge fan of The Hurt Locker. But congrats to them for winning.
Pretty in Pink and Ferris Beuller. LOVE them. Makes me want to watch them again.
Ooh. And The Breakfast Club. One of my favorites.
That was a nice John Hughes tribute.
Now Samuel L. Jackson showing the nomination for Up for Best Picture. I've heard such good things about this movie. But I don't foresee it winning Best Picture.
Kat:
I would LOVE to see Up take best picture, if only to see an animated film take it.
Return of the pom pom dress - oy. I love the top of it and it sparkles beautifully in the light. Zoe Saldana is gorgeous and has great legs, but the bottom of that dress just sucks.
Carey Mulligan I adored as Kitty in Pride and Prejudice. She looks cute.
Angela:
Yeah, I could deal with the ruffles of Zoe's dress if it didn't have the split in the middle actually.
Best Animated Short: Logorama. One big advertisement huh?
Kat:
*sigh* I wanted A Matter of Loaf and Death to win. I saw it and it was cute. Plus I love Wallace and Gromit.
LMFAO @ Ben Stiller. "This seemed like a better idea in rehearsal."
Love the tail, lol. I wonder how long it'll take for him to get it off.
I'm rooting for Star Trek.
I really want to see The Young Victoria.
"It's amazing how far technology has come." *giggle*
Star Trek wins it - yay :)
Angela:
Ben Stiller was great! LOL.
Best line of the night so far: "It's amazing how far technology has come." *laughs*
Congrats to Star Trek! I'm glad they won! Well deserved.
Love Rachel McAdams dress.
Best Adapted Screenplay - I think Precious will win.
Yep. And it did.
Robin Williams looks good in those glasses - distinguished.
Best Supporting Actress - I've got nothing on who may win this category.
Mo'Nique for her role in Precious: Based on the novel Push by Sapphire, wins. Just based on the clips I have no desire to see that movie.
Kat:
Mo'Nique wins it. She was a lock, from what I heard.
I have Precious in my queue.
Angela:
It's in my queue as well. LOL. Because I saw other previews that made me want to give it a chance, but what I saw there definitely didn't.
Kat:
Avatar won for set direction *sigh*
I wanted Sherlock Holmes or The Young Victoria win.
Angela:
I'm not surprised Avatar won. I would have been happy for Sherlock Holmes winning too. But I'm a bit sappy apparently. He almost made me cry.
Presenting for best costumes...
"Clothes Whores"
"Clothes HORSE-S" LOL
Kat:
SJP's hair is doing crazy fly-aways. Nice to see my hair isn't the only one that does it.
Oooh, The Young Victoria won for costumes. I'm SO excited for this one.
WTH is the winner wearing?
Angela:
SJP's hair looks great too! My hair does the crazy flyaways :P
Winner for Best Costume looked like she was wearing drapery. Or something. And the hat didn't help.
Oh wow. I was laughing so hard at the spoof on Paranormal Activity.
Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. Sparkles must be at home.
Kat:
Laughing my a$$ off at the hotel skit. I don't know why, but that struck me as funny.
Kristen Stewart needs to stop fidgeting.
I love the lights.
You know, with all that Saw c*** and other incredibly awful horror films they vomit out these days, I forget that they actually made GOOD horror movies once.
Angela:
Me too Kat. There are some good ones. This makes me want to watch some of them again.
And I was just asking "Why isn't Twilight in this" and then IT WAS! LOL.
Loved that montage.
John Travolta presenting Best Picture Nominee Inglorious Basterds. I love this movie. So great.
Kat:
They always do such a good job with the In Memorium section.
Angela:
Yes they do.
What is this for Best Score though? Are they doing a dance number for each one? Interesting new idea this year...
Kat:
I too can belly flop on the floor.
These scores were so much better either in the movies or on their own. The dancing does not do anything.
Angela:
So I get them wanting to do something special for this, but this is taking away from the scores themselves in my opinion. And I don't even think they're well choreographed.
Modern Family - one of my favorite tv shows, had a great commercial/preview. Academy Award charades. So funny.
Okay, now I see why everyone was afraid of the stairs. They move while you're walking on them...
Kat:
Tyler Perry!!!!
LMAO @ Alec and Steve in a Snuggie.
Angela:
LMAO. That was good Tyler Perry. Loved the Snuggie.
And The Hurt Locker wins again. *sigh*
Okay, so they just did the nomination 'trailer' for The Hurt Locker for Best Picture. And it's everything that made me want to see the movie. I wish it had lived it up to that for me.
Just did the 'trailer' for Avatar. I love that movie.
Kat:
I just....no.....can't get the desire to see it.
That's a random collection of people, but yay for Colin Farrell being up there.
Angela:
I feel that way about movies too Kat ;)
I'm liking the personal stories actually. Jeff Bridges was starting to tear up when Michelle Pfeiffer was talking.
I really like Colin Firth.
Shawshank Redemption is one of my all-time favorite movies. Morgan Freeman was great in that.
LOL. Colin Farrell is being hilarious. For all I don't like The Hurt Locker, Jeremy Renner was actually really good in the role. What he had to work with anyways.
Kate looks fabulous. I didn't get to say that earlier.
And the winner is for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role.........
Jeff Bridges.
Congratulations. I thought he was gonna win. I've heard lots of good things about this movie.
Kat:
Oprah must be EVERYWHERE.
Gabby always comes across as so sweet.
I love Meryl Streep.
All of the nominees other than Sandra looked exceptional. Why is Sandra the favorite?
And the winner is...........Sandra Bullock. Ohhkay.
Angela:
I definitely want to see this movie, and I've heard that it's a huge departure for Sandra, and that she's deserving of it. So congratulations!
But I wanted Meryl to win.
Aww. Sandra's gonna make me cry for thanking her mother. What a great acceptance speech.
And the winner for Best Director - Kathryn Bigelow! Congratulations to the first female to win Best Director!!
Kat:
I wasn't rooting for Sandra Bullock, but I did love her speech.
Woohoo!!!! I'm glad to see a female win Best Director
Angela:
Tom Hanks. I really do enjoy his movies.
Good on Tom Hanks for getting right to the point.
Winner for Best Picture - The Hurt Locker. *le sigh*
Kat:
The Hurt Locker won. Congrats to it. Not my type of movie, but I'm not sorry to see it win, especially with the excitement on the stage :D
I was rooting for Inglourious Basterds.
Angela:
I was rooting for anyone BUT The Hurt Locker ;) But congratulations anyways.
It was a pretty boring Oscars this year actually. Alec and Steve were not as funny as they could have been. Oh well.
Onto another year of great films.
Thank you Kat for joining me! This was fun, as always.
Kat:
Thanks for having me Angela :)

82nd Annual Academy Awards - Red Carpet

James Cameron and Suzy Amis - you can be too thin:
Amanda Seyfried - love it:
Vera Farmagia - when ruffles attack:
Mo'Nique - love her, love the color, but it doesn't fit in the most flattering manner:
Kat: Watching E! as well and Ryan is as annoying as ever.
Oh joy, Miley Cyrus is on in an ill-fitting bodice.
Everyone seems to be worried about the stairs.
Anna Kendrick:
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon:
Kat:OMG,there are some awful dresses this year.
Front shot of Vera's dress - it's even worse:
Maggie Gyllenhaal - love the dress, but not for the Oscars:
Elizabeth Banks - it looked better from the front but I haven't found a pic of that yet:
Kat: I don't love J Lo's dress. It looks like there's foam in it or something.
I like Sandra's dress.
Sigourney Weaver:
Eli Roth:
Tina Fey:
Carey Mulligan - my favorite so far:
Kat: I *heart* Gabby.
Kristen Stewart FINALLY learned to lighten up on the eyeliner.

Here's another shot of it:
Kat:
Front shot of Charlize - ick:
Demi Moore - when ruffles attack:
Taylor Lautner:
Keanu Reeves - shave:
Angela: Charlize's dress I just can't like. It takes away from her face. And what is going on with Demi's? It washes out with her skin, and then the ruffles.
I love RDJ wearing tennis shoes to the Oscars. LOL Here with his wife - Susan.
And here's another of Taylor:
J-Lo's dress is still not nice.
Kat: OMG, Cameron Diaz FINALLY found a decent dress.
Oh joy. Another Remember Me trailer. I can't wait until that comes out, if only so I don't have to see more trailers.

Kat: I've seen Kristen, I've seen Taylor, but where's ol' Sparkles?
Miley Cyrus needs to stand up straight.
Gabourey and Meryl are both fun to listen to.

Angela: Watching E! on the Red Carpet right now. Seacrest never fails to annoy me. But there's been some great dresses already.
I really like Anna Kendrick's. Sandra Bullock's is beautiful too. I agree on Mo'Nique's too though. Just a little different cut and it'd be perfect on her.
Kat: Watching E! as well and Ryan is as annoying as ever.
Oh joy, Miley Cyrus is on in an ill-fitting bodice.
Everyone seems to be worried about the stairs.

Last year, Kat and I did a running commentary of not only the Red Carpet, but the Academy Awards themselves. It was such a blast we plan to do the same thing again this year!
So come join us March 7th for the Biggest Night in Hollywood!
Sunday, February 22, 2009
Academy Awards - Public Enemies Short - First Look!!
Okay. I missed it on TV. But Kat told me about it, so I went looking. And I found it *g*
Here's the short. I can NOT wait to see this movie!!
It's about 22seconds in that it starts.
Here's the short. I can NOT wait to see this movie!!
It's about 22seconds in that it starts.
81st Annual Academy Awards
Angela: And they're starting!!
Check out the Red Carpet Post between Kat & I here.
Welcome to Hollywood's Biggest Night!!!
Oh! Hugh Jackman!! He looks great tonight.
LOL - Robert (Downey Jr.) is an American, playing an Australian, playing a black man. Where as me, I'm an Australian, playing an Australian, in a movie called Australia.
Kat: Jackman can do no wrong.
Hathaway's dress for the number was far better than the one she was wearing before.
Lucky Langella.
Jackman appears to be reaching out and petting the audience.
Again I say - WTF is Tilda Swinton wearing??????????
5 former winners standing in a half circle. I feel like it's a cult.
Angelica Huston is gorgeous.
Oh Whoopi. I love you. I have an irrepressible urge to watch Sister Act.
Cruz wins it. I was hoping for Viola Davis.
Angela: Congratulations Penelope! That opening song with Jackman was fantastic. I'm looking for a video of it to share here ;)
Aww. She thinks she's gonna faint. I have to say I love the emotional acceptance speeches the best.
Kat: Steve Martin and Tina Fey. My night is complete.
Angela: This is hilarious!
Tina: It has been said that to write is to live forever.
Steve: The man who wrote that is dead.
LOL
In Bruges! I really enjoyed this movie.
Kat: Screenplay - Milk wins it.
*sigh* I wanted In Bruges to win it.
Angela: I wanted In Bruges to win as well *sigh* I have to admit that I haven't seen Milk though...
Kat: Okay, Milk screenwriter got me with his excellent speech.
I love Steve Martin.
Ooh, adapted screenplay. I want Frost/Nixon to win.
Slumdog won. I'm 0/3.
Angela: I'm not surprised about Slumdog Millionaire's win for Best Adapted Screenplay. The buzz about this movie has just been huge.
I'm there with you at 0/3 Kat ;)
I just love Jack Black. He makes me laugh. With Jennifer Aniston.
Kat: Aniston's dress looks similar to Hathaway's. And Aniston pulls it off better.
Wall-E!!!!!
Angela: It is slightly similar. And she does definitely pull it off better. But she looks comfortable in it, which I think accounts for a lot of it.
And no, I still haven't seen Wall-E. What? Don't look at me like that Kat.
Kat: Best animated short - I'm hoping for Presto. It was even better than Wall-E. I'm going to ignore you not having seen this, Angela.
*GASP*
Presto lost? What cr**
Angela: LOL. I'm sure we'll do a movie night with Wall-E at some point.
Kat: What odd sets they've got tonight.
Art Direction has some truly fabulous noms this year. I'm partial to The Duchess.
Benjamin Button won - yay Brad shot :)
Angela: Those are some great nominations this year! I think I would have been happy with any of them winning.
Good nominations for Costume Design as well. I always love some good costumes. I have to say The Duchess had some great ones.
And the winner is: The Duchess!!
Kat: The Duchess HAD to win. The costume design was flawless. If you look at the paintings of her and compare them to the movie, it's nearly exact (as in they changed the color). Beautiful, beautiful work.
Makeup - what? No Twilight?
Benjamin Button won :)
Angela: Ugh. Twilight makeup was awful. And here's Robert Pattinson. Maybe the smoldering is a natural look for him.
I'm glad Benjamin Button won for makeup.
Ooh. Romance in 2008 montage.
Kat: RP is trying to smolder on stage.
It isn't working.
Romance 2008 - yay montage.
I really want to see Last Chance Harvey.
Okay, stop with the excessive Twilight shots. Everything else was fab :)
Angela: Well, hell. Robert Pattinson didn't do smoldering very well in the movie either. *sigh*
That montage was fabulous. There's actually quite a few movies in there I want to see.
I think they're trying to tell me I need to see Wall-E Kat. It ended with a scene from that movie. LOL
Kat: Natalie Portman looks gorgeous *still crushing*
Ben Stiller's Joaquin Phoenix gag, lmao.
"You look like you work at a Hasidic meth lab." *giggle*
This might be the best presentation of the night.
Another win for Slumdog. I hope this movie lives up to all the hype when I see it.
Angela: Finally! Got to see Natalie's dress live. It's gorgeous. She pulls off that color beautifully. In a way I never could.
I'm worried that Slumdog won't live up to all this hype, for me. I hope it does though.
Angela: I have to say that I was not impressed with the skit with James Franco and Seth Rogan. :|
Kat: Maybe if it hadn't come soon after the hilarious Stiller-Portman skit, it would have been funnier.
I now have a moral dilemma. I don't want to see Pineapple Express, but James Franco is so cute....
Angela: Okay. I admit that I do want to see Pineapple Express. I've heard that it's good. But my eagerness was slightly dimmed by that skit.
Kat: Opposite effect for me. I normally hate stupid comedies, but my susceptibility to cute boys is high.
Ooh, an ad for Castle. I want to see this show.
Sweet - musical number.
Beyonce's outfit now looks better than the one she came in. Why is does she perform every year? There are other singers, which is nothing against her. Just like a little variety.
OMG, what did they put VH and AS in?
That musical number didn't flow as well as it should have.
Angela: Yeah, I liked Beyonce's outfit in that musical number. It was pretty good, but not as good as the one at the beginning.
Again with the 5 previous winners. Christopher Walken is fabulous. But his tie is skewed.
Again. PSH. Why are you wearing the skull cap? It's not flattering.
*sigh* RDJ. He was great in Tropic Thunder. And I still watch Iron Man repeatedly.
Heath Ledger should definitely win this. His performance in The Dark Knight was absolutely breath-taking.
Best Supporting Actor: Heath Ledger. Yay!
Kat: Bittersweet moment. His performance more than deserved the award. Everyone looks like they're about to cry. Lovely speeches by his family.
Angela: I'm just so glad he won.
I finally found a video of the opening with Hugh Jackman!!
Okay. This isn't exactly Oscars related. But I have to say. I'm not a fan of Tom Cruise, but that commercial with him and Jimmy Kimmel for Jimmy's show was hilarious!! LOL.
Oh. You gotta love good car chase scenes. Great montage here too of action scenes.
Visual Effects: Benjamin Button wins.
Sound Effects: The Dark Knight.
I actually just wanted to say that I love Will Smith's lapel pin. ;)
Kat: Will Smith is never leaving the stage.
That's okay. I like looking at him.
Angela: Alright! I found the 2008 Romance Montage.
I truly enjoyed it.
And a great presentation: Ben Stiller and Natalie Portman
Here it is Kat ;)
Kat: Thanks Angela :)
Is it bad I got bored, put it on mute during the musical section, and am now listening to Cool Rider on my iPod?
Angela: Well, if that's bad, then I guess I am too. I'm not really paying attention here....
Kat: Are you listening to songs from Grease 2? Because, really, I win with that. LMAO.
Another win for Slumdog *yawn*
The bright colors have shocked me back awake.
+1 to Slumdog for that.
Angela: Okay. You win LOL.
The bright colors and the beats actually woke me back up. Good job.
Okay. Alicia Keys looks fabulous. Love her hair and earrings. The dress looks good on her too.
Best Original Song: Slumdog Millionaire again....
Queen Latifah looks fabulous in that color blue.
Kat: Yes she does.
*sigh*
Paul Newman.
He was wonderful :(
Kat: Reese Witherspoon's makeup makes her look old.
I also wish they'd taken the black cr** off the dress, esp at the top.
Angela: Reese is so beautiful. But I agree the makeup wasn't fantastic there...
Kat: Marion Cotillard is unbelievably gorgeous and Halle Berry is just stunning. HB definitely another fashion favorite for the night.
OMG. Sophia Loren looks awful. The hair, the dress.......oy.
I think a bird crash landed on Nicole Kidman's dress.
Kate Winslet won. I adore her, but I'd be more excited if I hadn't been sure she'd win.
Side note: I now love Kate Winslet's dad. LMAO.
Angela: Yay! Kate!! Congratulations!!!
"I think we all can't believe we were in a category with Meryl Streep at all" *g* I love her. I'm so glad she won.
And her dad whistling when she asked for him to so she knew where he was. That was fantastic. LOL
Kat: "He has no genitalia and he's holding a sword." - Dustin Hoffman - LOL
Yay - Brad Pitt is on screen :)
Sean Penn wins it.
I guess I really have to see Milk.
Angela: LOL at Dustin Hoffman. *still chuckling*
Apparently Milk and Slumdog Millionaire are movies to see this year....
Kat: Kim Basinger looks lovely.
I’m not generally a fan of Sean Penn, but his speech is funny, honest, and sincere.
What signs of hatred were out there tonight?
Angela: I missed the signs of hatred, but I'm curious enough to search for it now.
His speech was great.
Kat: I like how they splice bits of previously nominated films in with this year's nominees.
Who wants to bet Slumdog wins?
Yep, it won.
*sigh* I was just more entertained by the categories where I couldn't predict the winner.
Angela: Totally unsurprised by the Slumdog Millionaire win. *sigh*
I agree Kat. The categories that I couldn't predict were the best ones to watch.
I have to admit that I'm a little biased against Slumdog Millionaire now.
Kat - this was a great time! Thanks for doing this with me :)
Kat: I'm a bit biased as well. But I do want to see Milk now.
Thanks for having me Angela :)
Check out the Red Carpet Post between Kat & I here.
Welcome to Hollywood's Biggest Night!!!
Oh! Hugh Jackman!! He looks great tonight.
LOL - Robert (Downey Jr.) is an American, playing an Australian, playing a black man. Where as me, I'm an Australian, playing an Australian, in a movie called Australia.
Kat: Jackman can do no wrong.
Hathaway's dress for the number was far better than the one she was wearing before.
Lucky Langella.
Jackman appears to be reaching out and petting the audience.
Again I say - WTF is Tilda Swinton wearing??????????
5 former winners standing in a half circle. I feel like it's a cult.
Angelica Huston is gorgeous.
Oh Whoopi. I love you. I have an irrepressible urge to watch Sister Act.
Cruz wins it. I was hoping for Viola Davis.
Angela: Congratulations Penelope! That opening song with Jackman was fantastic. I'm looking for a video of it to share here ;)
Aww. She thinks she's gonna faint. I have to say I love the emotional acceptance speeches the best.
Kat: Steve Martin and Tina Fey. My night is complete.
Angela: This is hilarious!
Tina: It has been said that to write is to live forever.
Steve: The man who wrote that is dead.
LOL
In Bruges! I really enjoyed this movie.
Kat: Screenplay - Milk wins it.
*sigh* I wanted In Bruges to win it.
Angela: I wanted In Bruges to win as well *sigh* I have to admit that I haven't seen Milk though...
Kat: Okay, Milk screenwriter got me with his excellent speech.
I love Steve Martin.
Ooh, adapted screenplay. I want Frost/Nixon to win.
Slumdog won. I'm 0/3.
Angela: I'm not surprised about Slumdog Millionaire's win for Best Adapted Screenplay. The buzz about this movie has just been huge.
I'm there with you at 0/3 Kat ;)
I just love Jack Black. He makes me laugh. With Jennifer Aniston.
Kat: Aniston's dress looks similar to Hathaway's. And Aniston pulls it off better.
Wall-E!!!!!
Angela: It is slightly similar. And she does definitely pull it off better. But she looks comfortable in it, which I think accounts for a lot of it.
And no, I still haven't seen Wall-E. What? Don't look at me like that Kat.
Kat: Best animated short - I'm hoping for Presto. It was even better than Wall-E. I'm going to ignore you not having seen this, Angela.
*GASP*
Presto lost? What cr**
Angela: LOL. I'm sure we'll do a movie night with Wall-E at some point.
Kat: What odd sets they've got tonight.
Art Direction has some truly fabulous noms this year. I'm partial to The Duchess.
Benjamin Button won - yay Brad shot :)
Angela: Those are some great nominations this year! I think I would have been happy with any of them winning.
Good nominations for Costume Design as well. I always love some good costumes. I have to say The Duchess had some great ones.
And the winner is: The Duchess!!
Kat: The Duchess HAD to win. The costume design was flawless. If you look at the paintings of her and compare them to the movie, it's nearly exact (as in they changed the color). Beautiful, beautiful work.
Makeup - what? No Twilight?
Benjamin Button won :)
Angela: Ugh. Twilight makeup was awful. And here's Robert Pattinson. Maybe the smoldering is a natural look for him.
I'm glad Benjamin Button won for makeup.
Ooh. Romance in 2008 montage.
Kat: RP is trying to smolder on stage.
It isn't working.
Romance 2008 - yay montage.
I really want to see Last Chance Harvey.
Okay, stop with the excessive Twilight shots. Everything else was fab :)
Angela: Well, hell. Robert Pattinson didn't do smoldering very well in the movie either. *sigh*
That montage was fabulous. There's actually quite a few movies in there I want to see.
I think they're trying to tell me I need to see Wall-E Kat. It ended with a scene from that movie. LOL
Kat: Natalie Portman looks gorgeous *still crushing*
Ben Stiller's Joaquin Phoenix gag, lmao.
"You look like you work at a Hasidic meth lab." *giggle*
This might be the best presentation of the night.

81st Annual Academy Awards - Red Carpet
Kat and I decided to watch the Oscars together this year...unfortunately time zone issues are threatening to mess with us, but we're gonna try this anyway.
First we're gonna talk about the fashion. There's always great dresses - as well as some horrible choices.
This post will be edited multiple times throughout the evening ;)
Kat: Thanks for having me Angela.
I'm watching E! right now.
Zac Efron seems to have taken a page from Robert Pattinson's book and gone wild with hair grease.
Miley Cyrus would be adorable if she didn't speak.
I'm looking forward to seeing what Kate Winslet and Angelina Jolie wear this year. Who are you on the lookout for on the red carpet?
Angela: Thanks for joining me Kat!! I'm watching E! too.
Miley Cyrus is a little scary to me.
I'm definitely looking forward to seeing Kate Winslet, and Angelina Jolie this year. I'm also just looking for anyone that's got great dresses. I'm always interested in what people choose to wear to this event.
Kat: I wish Joe McHale hosted E!'s show instead of Seacrest.
Guiliana's dress looks like a cheap knockoff of Kiera Knightley's Oscars dress from a few years ago. She nowhere near pulls it off.
So far there haven't been any fashion standouts for me. Here's some pics:
Angela: I actually like Miley Cyrus' dress. It's interesting and flatters her. I did really like Taraji P. Henson's necklace. I can't find a picture of it though.
Seacrest is somewhat annoying. I got a kick out of him trying to talk to one of the kids from Slumdog Millionaire that didn't speak English *roll*
Kat: Michael Sheen *squee*
I love the way Seacrest says “real” like it’s something extraordinary.
I didn’t even recognize Seth Rogan.
Oooh, I like Sarah Jessica Parker’s dress. It does not have a Miley feel. She looks adorable.
Natalie Portman!!! Why aren’t they showing her dress, dammit?
Here's Taraji:
RDJ just showed up. I think I might need a THUD mat for Angela ;)
Anne Hathaway doesn't look like she can walk in her dress.
Holy necklace Amy Adams! I'm not sure how I feel about it.
Robert Pattinson is here. His hair is shorter, but evidently he didn't get the memo about washing your hair before the biggest night in Hollywood.
Angela: OMG! Robert Downey Jr! He's looking very dashing!! I may need that THUD mat ;)
Robert Pattinson at least got a haircut before the Oscars. Unfortunately he didn't choose the wash & cut. *sigh*
I love Marissa Tomei's hair! But the dress...I'm not so sure about it. The way it gathers at the ground is just not right.
Wow. Seth Rogan looks totally different.
Kat: I love Natalie Portman's dress. I have a girl crush on her, I admit.
Anne Hathaway's dress, I do not like.
Ooooh, I *heart* E!'s flashback. Leo...........*inner 12 year old sighs dreamily*
Don't give me that look Angela. They put RDJ and Johnny in there too.
Now Brad and Colin....
Angela: I missed Natalie's dress! I'm bummed. Just saw her face, but she looked great.
Anne Hathaway's dress totally does not flatter her. I don't like it.
LOVED the flashback! Johnny Deep *sigh* RDJ, Brad, Colin. You can't get better ;)
Kat: Beyonce is wearing drapery.
Mickey Roarke looks like he fell out of bed and got dressed in the dark.
Meryl Streep has arrived. I love her. She's a Vassar girl too :D
Queen Latifah - proof that you don't have to be a stick to be hot. Can't see her dress though.
Angela: The best part of Mickey Roarke's ensemble is the necklace around his neck.
Queen Latifah looks great! I love that she's not stick thin. I'd like to see more of her dress though.
Jessica Biel looks harsh....I'm not sure if that's the angle or what.
Kat: What lessons did she take away from Elmo?
Seriously Seacrest?
Ugh.
They're glamastrating Anne Hathaway. They like it? I hate it. She looks washed out and stuck in there.
Angela: I don't know what their thing is for Anne's dress. That was awful. She looks uncomfortable, and it cuts up her torso oddly.
Here's Peter Gabriel. I totally wouldn't have recognized him.
Marion Cotillard - soon to be seen in Public Enemies. I like the top part of her dress which is all I could see.
Kat: OMG, Jessica Biel's dress is barfing taffeta. And I don't think her shoes match.
Not sure how I feel about the bottom of Marion Cotillard's dress. Top looks gorgeous.
Evan Rachel Wood – people shouldn’t be able to smell you coming.
Why can't they interview Natalie Portman?
It's Brad and Angelina!!!!!!!!
They look gorgeous. They disappointed me on the style front the past few times and I adore them, so now I'm happy.
Angela: Jessica Biel's shoes definitely do not match. They're black...with a cream or white colored dress. Which I wouldn't normally have a problem with, but it's jarring. And the drape at the front is just ... *shudders*
LMAO! I think I'd be horrified if someone smelled me coming for an interview o.O
Brad and Angelina! They look great! Love the neckline of Angelina's dress.
Kat: Non-newsflash: Seacrest mangles Spanish.
Penelope, you're beautiful (and possibly wearing hte same dress as the last 5 you wore), but blocking my Angelina view.
WTF is PSH wearing? NO SKULL CAPS AT THE OSCARS MAN!!!
There's Winslet. Err......it looks like she couldn't make up her mind so they pieced together 4 different dresses.
Angela: Okay. I've just realized that I don't agree with E! at all on the fashion. Ugh. They like Penelope's dress, and Jessica Biel's dress. *shakes head.
Philip Seymour Hoffman. No. No. That is NOT a good idea.
I'm a little disappointed in Kate Winslet's dress. She looked so gorgeous the last time I saw. But her hair looks great.
Kat: Watching Brad and Angelina on ABC. Classic looks, beautiful on them. They're fun and charming to watch. People are asking them the most convoluted questions. Awww, Mickey Roarke and Sean Penn are Brad Pitt's idols.
They need to stick with shoulders-up shots on Winslet. She is reminding me of Emma Thompson tonight. Not a bad thing.
I think I got cheated. No Portman interviews.
Angela: Tried to run my dog out quick during the commercial break, turned out to be not so quick. LOL.
I missed Brad & Angelina??!!
Kat: Seacrest got about 10 seconds of Brad. I laugh.
Angela: RDJ looks really good. *sigh* I can't wait to see more of him. He's had some great movies lately. Lots of fun :)
Switched to ABC's Red Carpet show.
Kat: Time for ABC too.
Tim Gunn is asking Amy Adams silly questions.
Amy Adams:
I like SJP's dress, save for the belt.
Nixon couldn't be here tonight. No, really?
Angela: Angelina's got lime green earrings on. Slightly unsurprisingly, she pulls it off.
Amy Adam's dress choice this year is a lot better than the previous few times.
Kat: See Tim Gunn physically hold Angelina hostage for an interview.
Okay, I don't want to be reminded of CD's fugly dress, even if Valentino designed it.
Picturegasm:
Angela: Great pictures Kat!! Well, a great selection ;) I still don't see why Robert Pattinson can't wash his hair.
Robert Downey Jr: "That'll be darn swell." LOL. His wife is wearing a gorgeous dress.
And here's Anne Hathaway with that awful dress again.
Kat: Ya know, if you back up far enough, AH's dress doesn't look so bad.
Miley is STILL on the red carpet talking?
No, sweetie. Hannah Montana the movie won't bring you to the Oscars.
Angela: Ooh. The winning envelopes - LOL.
Miley's trying to milk it for everything it's worth.
Meryl Streep. Her daughter is beautiful. I like the color of Meryl's dress actually. Goes well against her skin.
Kat: Meryl Streep!!!!
I love her. The dress is kinda unremarkable. But ya know what? It doesn’t matter. It’s Meryl Streep.
More pics. I do not like MR's outfit and WTF is Tilda Swinton wearing????
Angela: Tilda Swinton apparently thought her dress top should blend completely with her skin. It's washing her out completely!
Overall - I haven't seen anything that I just LOVED tonight. But there were definitely some good ones.
Kat: Loved Jolie and Portman
More pics:

Miley is STILL on the red carpet talking?
No, sweetie. Hannah Montana the movie won't bring you to the Oscars.
Angela: Ooh. The winning envelopes - LOL.
Miley's trying to milk it for everything it's worth.
Meryl Streep. Her daughter is beautiful. I like the color of Meryl's dress actually. Goes well against her skin.
Kat: Meryl Streep!!!!
I love her. The dress is kinda unremarkable. But ya know what? It doesn’t matter. It’s Meryl Streep.
More pics. I do not like MR's outfit and WTF is Tilda Swinton wearing????
Angela: Tilda Swinton apparently thought her dress top should blend completely with her skin. It's washing her out completely!
Overall - I haven't seen anything that I just LOVED tonight. But there were definitely some good ones.
Kat: Loved Jolie and Portman
