Those four clips added together roughly equal the time last night's Oscarcast wasted reminding the world that they were right about awarding Chicago and preemptively warning the world that history would vindicate Les Mis.

Meh, Coppola didn't defeat anything particularly distinguished, and 1990 predates my rubbernecking Oscar races.

2005 definitely much closer to the mark.

no netflix; NY public library
― Pope Rusty I (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 26 February 2013 15:35 (eleven years ago) link
morbs how much hours a week would you guess you spend sitting in the library posting on the internet?

I've owned a laptop for almost 4 years, Bright Eyes.
― Pope Rusty I (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 26 February 2013 15:48 (eleven years ago) link
wait do you work at the library? just trying to figure out why 'ny public library' is yr reason for not having netflix. does netflix have a beef w/ the ny public library and you're taking sides?
― balls, Tuesday, 26 February 2013 15:53 (eleven years ago) link
NYPL has 90% of what i need to see.
― Pope Rusty I (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 26 February 2013 15:57 (eleven years ago) link
ok, that makes total sense. netflix is convenient but it definitely has its holes.

Long, uneven postmortem by Denby, gets to the point here:
...All of which leaves Bassey. “Goldfinger,” whose title track she delivered last night, came out in 1964, a date recalled by Emmanuelle Riva, Alan Arkin, William Shatner, Quvenzhané Wallis’s grandparents, and nobody else. Short of importing Mary Poppins, or the Audrey Hepburn of “My Fair Lady,” there could be no swifter way of spiriting us back to that candy-colorful year. Here was the Bond song, all a-glitter, not merely repeated but refreshed for our delight. And our lady, at the gilded age of seventy-six, was no less fair. The spider-like pause, on “It’s the kiss of death,” was left to hang far longer, and more luxuriously, than it was in the original recording; the climactic growl on “only gold” would have sent Richard Parker packing; and, as for the knowing, hands-on-hips mini-shimmer at the words “pretty girls,” even the girlish Jennifer Lawrence must have been left pondering what it yet might take, in the long haul of stardom, to own the town. The assembled throng rose before Bassey had even signed off; these folk know royalty when they see it. Whatever you think about Quentin Tarantino, the man loves the pantheon, and he was up on his hind paws and clapping like a kid who didn’t realize that Santa Claus could show up in the middle of Lent. For an instant, we could all party like it was 1964.

so, how bad has Seth McFarlane been so far?
as bad as expected muliplied by worse
Most-watched Oscars in 6 years, he should be back. Almost half the jokes were decent to great, btw. (And I fucking hate Family Guy.)

u_u
i think I just realized how much I hate the Oscars is what it boils down to. And that Seth McFarlane is terrible

But Denby wrote it! No wonder I laughed a couple times.

I would think the overriding job of a host at this point is to generate lots of din, and to keep the show front and center (which, logically, it really shouldn't be any more). So he did that.
