Why not?

207.67.53.106

I can't kvetch about the Bush administration and the Christian right and reality tv all the time. Oscar makes a nice change of pace.

I completely understand what they are and don't get terribly upset one way or the other very often. (It would be nice to see Marty get his Oscar someday however, only because he seems to care.)

I'm always curious if the Academy inadvertently rewards film excellence now and then - it does, in fact, happen.

This year the top BP noms didn't actualy include any films I loathed for a change. Rather a good group IMO except for Crash, which many others loved. Every BP nom at least represented a filmmaker's personal vision - rather refreshing IMO although it says more about the paucity of quality studio pics than it says about AMPAs going indy.

As long as one keeps in mind Oscar is an industry party in an industry town, that it's about film business and not "film art", why then one can have a jolly good time ogling the dressses, the hair- dos, the faux pas and surprises.
