Whoa - I leave for one second and obama make an appearance. Kevin Spacey singing. I think the only reason he can do it is because there's more humor than duration. By the way, I started drinking and I hate Randy Newman. Sorry guys, just not my thing.
Oh, can we talk about this horrible Adrian Brody commercial? I mean, it's been a long time since I've seen an actor so completely gross me out. He's totally disgusting, slimy, and advertising a beer I like. I just wish that people blamed him for the failure of King Kong and he got Benigni'ed.
The commercials are at this point a relief. Not like Superbowls are a welcome distraction, but more like a chance for the pain of this antique ceremony to briefly stop.
@Matt- I'll bet you there are people pointing to that in Hollywood tonight. "Do you think there could be a vehicle for a lesbian sex scene between Amy Adams and Anne Hathaway?"
Short documentary film - I have no idea what I picked on the ballot, but if I'd known it was about kids I would have picked it. Also if I knew HBO had something to do with it.
It seems unfair that the live action short people get actual awards during the ceremony. I mean shouldn't they give these away before hand. In the mini-Oscars? Or are we supposed to be so jazzed up that ordinary people won?
A slow Billy Crystal story. He has a crease in the middle of his forehead. It is possible that he will become more Klingon-like as he ages. Billy "Worf" Crystal.
Thank goodness Billy Crystal was brought in to make the oscars funny again. Did they just have him under glass, and James Franco broke it to end his misery...
Wow, they pitched it to Billy Crystal who then pitched it to Bob Hope. Who then pitched it to Robert Downey Jr. and that British guy who used to be in a lot of good movies.
So this is an Inception Tech Rout, yes? Which I guess is appropriate. My wife just got home! Yay! She says she voted for everything correctly. But then so does Shelley. I haven't looked into the winners yet.
Rally! Resist the entropy of the third act! Now is the time when you must be at your meanest! Your surliest! Blame the Oscars for what they have done to you!!
This song is definitely pushing things into a new dimension of crazy excitement. Do you suppose they can reach into the same bin where they got Bob Hope and pull out the 3:6 Mafia?
So we can all agree that James Franco and Anne Hathaway will never host this thing again, right? Who's got next? If we are insisting on not using comedians, how about Justin Timberlake?
Why does Celine get to sing and nobody even apologizes or explains??? There's no introduction. No chance to change the channel. And it's all dead people after that. It's like a challenge. Can you make fun of Celine without taking the piss out of Tony Curtis (un)timely death??

Whoever this woman is who won the costume award needs to get contact lenses or write on a large sized card. That was terrible. Woah! black people!!!
Three 6 Mafia sighting!
Jesus. Did she win an essay contest
Wow! Obama has an opinion on _everything_.
Oh no!!! Kevin Spacy!! Doing a Kirk Douglass Imitation!!
Randy Newman, Kenny, has been writing the same song for 30 years. He's like Tom Waits on heavy anti-depressants.
cool randy newman. gonna go take a shit for about 5 hours
Michael Caine could play Randy Newman. It would be awful but it could happen.

We're at the hour and a half mark and are just now getting to the Best Song nominee performances? God help us.....
Randy Newman must have his own parking spot at the Academy Awards.
Currently my choice for comment of the night...

Thank God that's over.
Oh no, there are more songs.
randy newman is getting older by the minute. Is it necessary to do the entire song up for the award? How about just a collage of all of them?
mandy more is wearing a flock of dead peacocks. where's your god now?
Apparently Alan Menken is not dead. Who knew?
All the songs at the same time??? this can't be the best idea they've had. The idea of an original sing should really go away.
We're on ABC and none of these songs have been song by Glee people. Someone is going to be fired for this.
There was just a little bit of C-Span with orchestral scoring. That's a very weird mashup.
Thank God Oprah is going to save us! She just comes for the gift basket.
Someone just told me Glee is on FOX. I am fine with not knowing this.
have there been any african americans on this broadcast? 2011 Oscars produced by Land's End.

I like stella and I do not see the appeal of adrien brody at all. Do girls swoon over him? This seems to all be a lie
that was a fucking commercial for fancy feast!?
The commercials are at this point a relief. Not like Superbowls are a welcome distraction, but more like a chance for the pain of this antique ceremony to briefly stop.
Just FYI: We've done 14 categories and there are still 10 left and the In Memoriam. I hope no one is planning on getting up early tomorrow.
Jake Gyllenhall! Our generation's answer to mayonnaise. Look at him. He looks like Donkey Kong's wimpy little brother.
Amy Adams and Anne Hathaway should have a mouth off.
lol @ jake gyllenhaal getting heckled
(that's the best attempt at spelling you're going to get)

@Matt they look like a family of rogue Dementors. THAT'S TWO HARRY POTTER REFERENCES!)

Howard Stern lookin good!
If you've ever cleaned a bong with a q-tip, that last dude looks familiar...
Auto-tune the movies. Ugh.
How many outfits for Hathaway now? I count at least 4. Finally some auto-tuner!!!
Gregory Brothers! haha
Autotuned Harry Potter. Wow. This is a good trend. This will definitely speed things up.
Ok. Doesn't Have a Shirt was funny.
Now bring back the Roberto Benigni meets Yahoo Serious lookin' guy.
Breath the same air as Oprah. I smell money and narcissism.
The Coen Brothers: not fans of Oprah.
Colin Firth looks like I do at an all-hands meeting. Completely focused and present on the outside and screaming in pain on the inside.
WOoo!!! Politics! And no Banksy. SOme part of me hopes that Banksy is in the audience wearing a rat mask and feeling really stupid.
i'm losing steam. this is like blogging an audit
Why is Billy Crystal made up in his Mr. Saturday Night old age make-up?
A+ work by Casey in our Youtube segment...
i was expecting Hattie Mcdaniel
The Oscars are going so poorly they've gone to bullpen for Billy Crystal.
@Matt Ouch!
A slow Billy Crystal story. He has a crease in the middle of his forehead. It is possible that he will become more Klingon-like as he ages. Billy "Worf" Crystal.

Bob Hope looks like he's about to ask Obi-Wan for help.
what the hell was that?
joooooooooooooddddddeeeee
law
Wow, they pitched it to Billy Crystal who then pitched it to Bob Hope. Who then pitched it to Robert Downey Jr. and that British guy who used to be in a lot of good movies.
This back and forth between Jude Law and Robert Downey, Jr was better than anything in their first Sherlock Holmes movie.
Bring on my $3! Am I the only one who wants to win?
So this is an Inception Tech Rout, yes? Which I guess is appropriate. My wife just got home! Yay! She says she voted for everything correctly. But then so does Shelley. I haven't looked into the winners yet.
this is the best broadcast of the BAFTAs i've ever seen!
Inception wasn't nominated for editing. Weird. A lot needed to happen to make that movie make no sense. I feel like they were robbed.
How was Inception _not_ nominated for Film Editing? They didn't shoot that in one take, right?
Damn, i thought they were going to kiss
Rally! Resist the entropy of the third act! Now is the time when you must be at your meanest! Your surliest! Blame the Oscars for what they have done to you!!
It's time for some awards. The big awards. More original song nominees! That'll perk shit up! Jennifer Hudson will tear things up!
OH MY GOD. Where is the rest of Jennifer Hudson?!
hathaway's face is massive! it's like mount rushmore in a bad wig.
That means her neck is blackfoot indian teritory.
Is that Enya?
This song is definitely pushing things into a new dimension of crazy excitement. Do you suppose they can reach into the same bin where they got Bob Hope and pull out the 3:6 Mafia?

Is this song about to bust into Jai Ho?
Another dress for hathaway? There are children starving somewhere!!
From Jacy: "Why is Gwynneth Paltrow holding a vibrator?"
GWYNETH!!!WE ARE ALL WINNERS!!!! GWYNETH sings COUNTRY music. She's an American treasure. And she connects with me on so many levels.
this song could use Cee-Lo and his muppets.
Gwyneth trying to sound nasal.
why can't i garner fame for "kind of being good at something"?
Randy Newman walks off with this one. Just like he always does. He's a national menace. He cannot be stopped and we must just endure him.
Country music's new star? I'll leave it to you
I want a Randy Newman, Florence, Jay-Z combo?
Randy newman needs this Oscar like I need this show to keep going.
Randy Newman is going to build a raft out of his oscars and be given a viking funeral.
Halle Berry Rembers Lena Horne!!! We are in for a treat! This Academy Awards ceremony has been lean as a jaguar!
Randy Newman may have had the best acceptance yet. He is digging his way out of a huge negative score for me
This Ozzie commercial is giving me Vietnam-style flashbacks to the Super Bowl halftime show.
Modern family isn't funny
Modern Family ftw.
Oh! A Modern Family clash with Kenny! The blog gets feisty!
Oh thank goodness Celene Dion!
Why does Celine get to sing and nobody even apologizes or explains???
There's no introduction. No chance to change the channel. And it's all dead people after that. It's like a challenge. Can you make fun of Celine without taking the piss out of Tony Curtis (un)timely death??
i guess they heard my Celine Dion comment.
Celine - Officially the bathroom break

The In Memoriam is my favorite part of the show. It's even better now that Celine's stopped singing.
Oh damn. She's back.
Celine has moved this from a pee break to a full dump. Thanks, Canada!

he made that movie just to get laid. PROVE ME WRONG!
Are they retiring Lena Horne's number tonight?
i think they had to get at least one black actor in. No black actors even died!
Am I the only one who thinks that the chick from NCIS kinda sounds like Gollum?
Brad, I fear you might be the only person I know who knows NCIS apart from my parents.
TOM HOOPER! YES!
Go rent the Damn United. RIGHT NOW!
