oscar slash

[bironic]

Haha, Western-slash and two cases of actor-slash within the opening monologue! It makes up for Jon Stewart's otherwise mediocre routine. (Ah, nothing like hundreds of millions of politically diverse viewers to pressure the humor out of a speech.) After the fanvid movie montage I left the room, because really, he's not going to top that.

("Get it?" I asked. "Top?"
"Go upstairs," said my sister.)

So in sum, anyone who says RPS infuriates and/or humiliates the actors involved ought to check with Billy Crystal, Chris Rock, Jon Stewart and George Clooney first.

Oh, you should have been here for the BAFTAs.

Stephen Fry: "A talented young actor - I could wax poetic about him for hours. Actually, last night, I just waxed for him. Ladies and gentlemen - I give you Jake Gyllenhal!!"

I wish I could have watched the BAFTAs. All we found was the E! pre-show and it was so rude we had to put it in screen-in-screen mode between favorite actor appearances.

Damn, I WISH they'd shown the Oscars over here!

I taped it -- I'll keep a copy for when you come over.

Yay! And I'll bring you Black Books and some Dylan Moran stand-up.
