Best Celebrity Introduction

"Our next presenter is either an internatially acclaimed movie star or an auto dealership. Please welcome Harrison Ford."

Hey, That Woman Looks Familiar

Oh, wait, that's Diablo Cody, who won for Juno's screenplay. I thought it was Pebbles Flintstone.

Music to My Ears

Well, if the song from August Rush couldn't win, I'm glad it's this one. The songs from Enchanted were disappointing.

Is It Snowing in LA?

The scarf around the neck of the older gentleman accepting his award from Nicole K...a dated look.

Out of the Past

Remember when we saw Schindler's List and could barely talk afterwards?
Ditto to Juno and The Savages.
"It is true there are some angels in this city." Nice.

Anticipation

Movies I can't wait to see: Juno and Savages.
I loved Elizabeth the Golden Age.
I loved Away from Her
I loved La Vie en Rose
I am sure I would have loved The Savages and Juno.
OK, here I am! (Wow! I look good in my picture.)

I am liking all the flashbacks.

Flashbacks

I love seeing the montages of past winners. What a nice touch.

Super Bad at the Oscars!

Oh, I love these guys from Super Bad filling in for Halle Berry and Judi Dench.

Audience Favorite

There's Tommy Lee Jones! Be still my heart.

Musical Uh-Oh

If the nominated song from Enchanted is any indication of the musical performances tonight, I know when I'll be taking bathroom breaks....

Best Opening Jokes

Julie Christie -- in a movie a woman who forgets her husband -- Hillary Clinton calls it "the feel good movie of the year"

Dennis Hopper -- Mentioning he's here in the audience "so he knows where he is

"Hillary & Barack -- Normally, when you see a black or woman president, an asteroid is about to hit the Statue of Liberty
