They've just started an I'm going to talk about it. Here's what I have so far

Gone with the Wind may have won in 1939, but that was the year of Wizard of Oz. Sorry.
I have a big crush on James Franco.
Scarlett Johannson looks fine as hell.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND? Really?
Inception's cinematography was nice, I've got a soft spot for Black Swan, though.
Tom Hanks is getting old.

MORE TO COME

Scarlett Johansen looks like she's wearing a Jersey Shore bride's maids dress. It's horrible.

I didn't even notice her dress, honestly. There were way more important things.

She looked hawt from the boobs up if you could ignore the magenta lace horror.

Gwyneth Paltrow has a definite irritating, upper east side waspiness to her, but she always looks fabaluss. She's tearing up that lamé Calvin Klein. She and Halle Berry look the best this evening. Also, Sharon Stone who is like 50-something and still totally gorgeous and wearing some crazy black tight thing with undulating feathers bobbing around is killing it. They only showed her for like 2 seconds. Not everyone can get away with undulating feathers. Much less being 50-something with undulating feathers.

Nuh uh. That dress is bad ass. She looks like a glimmery, blonde, Art Deco goddess.

Also, the emerald industry is obviously heavily involved in the jewelry loans this evening. There's all these egg sized emeralds walking around.

And, I REALLY loved Anne's first dress (not the red one before it all started, but the white one with all the shimmery stuff).

Russell Brand is hideously ugly. Gross.

WERD.

The old broads are killin' it. Helen Mirren's body is sick and that dress is so elegant and such a great color.

Matthew McConolllolly has done something weird to his face. Eye job methinks. It's making him not as hawt. His eye crinkles were part of his Texas hawtness.

I gave up after they robbed the True Grit kid and then that whole thing with Kirk Douglas...echhhh, that was more awkward than every season or the Office rolled into one.
Social Network is gonna win the rest of everything and they'll sprinkle a couple tidbits to that King's Speech and that gay one to make it not look like as much a sham as it is.
It's cool though, because now I'll get to sleep earlier than 2 am.

Cate Blanchett's dress is weird but I like it.
People tell me I look like her lately. I don't know why. I don't. I'm pale. She's pale. That's about it.

I know it's weird and don't like the yellow things but she can get away with weird. She and Tilda Swinton can wear Star Trek uniforms and look good.

Cate and Tilda can both really can rock some weird shit, so true.

I'm not buttering you up but I swear you are far more beautiful than Cate Blanchett. You're both tall and thin and fair, but her face has nothing on yours. You're a classic beauty - very refined features.

Yeah. It's a great colour for her, just not a great dress for her.
Also not a fan of the green jewelry with the blue.
