Hmmm...seems like ‘Gravity’ is 6 for 7 tonight.

BTW...that is interesting that the orchestra is performing live from somewhere else.

Gotta admit...that acceptance speech for Best Orginal Song was pretty epic.

Never heard of the E.G.O.T......

Mandela song didn’t win. I think it is going to be a long Oscar broadcast.

3 minutes to go...and another 6 or 7 awards to go. Yep...they’re going long.

Yes.... but, be careful... that ignoring can go both ways.

Not too many surprises just yet.

That Original Screenplay category was TOUGH!

Goldie looked AWFUL! Sometimes, it’s BETTER... to just look a little older.

Wow Gravity is winning a LOT of awards tonight.

I wasn’t expecting it to win Directing...

I kinda thought it would, not sure why. Wondering if Sandra Bullock will get Best Actress.

Ellen sort of stumbled with that ‘fake ending’....but did you hear the rumble that went through the audience? I think some of them thought they WOULD close it early.

IMHO, she’s the best actress up there. She was amazing in “Elizabeth”.

Meryl has done a lot of good work, but I think it’s about time for her to settle down and buy a cranberry bog somewhere...

It was OK... Not sure if it will project to TV that well.
