Ricky Gervais in Haitian ribbon, making fun of NBC’s The Office and mocking the plugs…

Want a blini?

wonderful work done this year–by cosmetic surgeons.

Oh sex joke..masturbation in the first 2 mins. How appropriate…

Kiefer Sutherland nice dis..some of those scenes beating terrorists weren’t scripted…and yeah he went there with Angelina Jolie and adopting babies…

Nicole Kidman lettig us know we can go to NBC.com to make donatin for Haitian relief and to watch Clooney’s telethon

Standing ovation for her as she walks to stage

Thank you God for this amazing ride you are allowing me to go on.

What a sweet love out to her husband…and great speech. F*cking REAL!

Just remember HARRISON FORD=SHOE FETISH

Me I don’t much care for Split Personality Comedy–never watched the show

Glad you made it–just in time for Toni Collette to admit she was in the loo when she last won!

Monique certainly looks more like an actual human woman than Nicole Kidman.

Oh I like Lauren Graham very much.

They sat Lithgow waaaaaay up top

NPHarris looks sad.

Oh, I haven’t seen this season’s Weeds yet so can’t judge Lithgow. Coming from Amazon next week, though!

Or Dexter either.

Dexter’s Michael C Hall just finished treatment for lymphoma

Oh here come’s Sir Paul and his Just for Men hair color…

what is wiht the polka dots…

Good joke, animation is not just for children, they’re for adults who take drugs

Ha ha Paul, “that guy from Rock Band”

“Animation not just for children, also for adults – who take drugs.”

Hollywood liberals and their permissive attitudes.

Best Animated Feature Film

And the Furren Press..double evil. Elite furren media!

UP — Yay! The movie that proves Ed Asner puts asses in the seats!

I only saw Coraline among those in the animated category, but it was super.

I dont take drugs. And the adult part is open for debate too

pia zadora begs to differ…

Ohhhh… NPH looking dapper!

- Julianna Margulies, The Good Wife

6 noms, first win

GREAT DRESS

Julianna Margolies thanks Les Moonves for believing in the TEN oclock drama! Ha!

Juliana’s dis to NBC “10 o’clock drama”

NBC cancelled FIVE drama for Leno, such a hard hit to LA economy

I love The Good Wife. If you’re not watching it, you should.

what did julianna say about 10pm dramas? i missed it.

(never mind)

stupidest move ever.

I miss Southland…

BUT Conan who got a $30millin pay out hasn; made provisions for his staff (per TMZ) who relocated from NY 9 months ago

CHER

Cher is TALL

NBC has possibly ruined tv. Even SNL was ragging on them last night!

Seth Meyers says he doesn’t like this idea that people can get their old jobs back, since he likes doing the Weekend Update and he doesn’t want Jimmy Kimmel knocking on his door!

Wow Cher is um TALL. But Christina’s dress looks weirdly naked on one boob

I liked Southland

Tell us more….

yeah, crazy heart music!

Sorry, Prairie, but don’t presume you know me.

Best Original Song – Motion Picture

Crazy Heart might be a big winner comes Oscar time…

boo, crazy heart speech!

Mmmm, the story is form Hollywood Interrupted by Mark Ebner, there was this chick who stalked celebs via AOL wheer she worked, she pretended not to know who they were…and Ford flew did a whole shoe fetish scene with her.

- Meryl Streep, Julie & Julia

oh good – I always love Meryl’s acceptance speeches…

Time for duck confit!

Mmmm, she looks amazing.

BUTTAH!

What a GREAT speech…

a vessel

what grace, what dignity and charm. Bringing up Haiti

the real world..Partners in Health, shoot some money to Partners in Health and be damn grateful you have the dollars to help, I am really grateful

What a flaky acceptance by Meryl.

Disgusted that she did not acknowledge Julie Powell, who was the reason Julie & Julia ever came to pass.

Good point, Rayne!

Oh Helen! What a beauty. And what a dress!

Commercials getting quite a bit longer in the second hour, no?

- Kevin Bacon, Taking Chance

Yum. Bacon!

I love Kevin and Kyra

Yeah, Julie’s daily blog entries combined with her exploration of Julia Child’s cookbook later became a book by Julie; a big chunk of the movie wasn’t about Julia, but about Julie.

Torques me off personally, because Julie and I both were early bloggers at Salon.com; I know she put a lot of heart and soul into the process, and zippo recognition tonight.

Seems like Meryl, who had at least 50% chance of winning, could have mustered a little more composure especially as a grande dame of her profession. If I were her mom, I’d be annoyed even if she did recognize her mother and Haiti’s needs.

That was a very good movie.

- Drew Barrymore, Grey Gardens

Drew brought her hedgehog on her shoulder

I learned to presume nothing six months ago, thank you very much.

Oh dear, teenager agrees, Drew Barrymore’s dress is less than happy. Think the flesh color is wrong on her, and the frills make her look lumpy.

and her brain elsewhere…almost Sally Fields YOU LIKE ME

Is Robert DeNiro looking more and more like Bruce Springsteen, or is it the other way around?

Lisa (79) — heh, hedgehog…good description. I thought it looked like a craft project made with little tinfoil muffin cup liners.

There’s too much beige/champagne/Crayola peach (nee flesh) on the carpets these days. Looks so mumsy and washes everyone out

Oh Ricky…I love him! And the director so freaking out spinning cameras.

Jennifer Aniston doesnt look like herself

Best Screenplay – Motion Picture

- Jason Reitman & Sheldon Turner, Up In The Air

Economic commentary…let’s see the speech…

Thanks the book’s author! NICE. And thanks the actors. And pumps the Clooney telethon. And loves his wife! NICE

Oh Ashton…

Garner’s neckline doesnt work on the dress

I love that movie…so well made and a great story.

Carrell looks upset

wow, good old huffpo is online streaming this .. and instead of commercials, there’s a bunch of queens arguing over this n that during the breaks

Yeah, think only redheads can truly carry off Crayola peach (formerly “flesh”) reliably. Warm blondes invariably end up in a dress that’s a shade too pink and brunettes in a dress a shade too yellow.

And then the cut and design; if it was bad in color, it looks worse in flesh-tone.

Ah, here we go, Ashton K without his Twitter for a couple of moments.

Now that’s a movie star: SOPHIA

But she brought her purse up to the mic..weird

Best Foreign Language Film

Lisa, thanks for having this party.

i’m still the only person on earth who thinks Sally F’s “you like me” moment was great, yes a bit ditzy and embarrassing, but also funny, touching, and the human condition

Wow, Ahunuld is there…wiht Paul McCartney’s hair dye

And she is 76 !

Bad dress on Amy..it’s wearing her.

Zachary Levi!

Much too intense a color for Amy.

tarantino so fugly .. i really enjoy him talking, hate his movies .. Sophia Loren, god the ultimate

Best Television Series – Drama

- Mad Men

Im with you as well…part of her very fresh charm…along with great talent…

Damn that redheaded gal from MadMed is one amazing va-va-voom woman!

Anna Paquin–too much decolletage, darling. Trashy, you might as well be hanging on the arm of guy wearing Ed Hardy

Okay, I’m wrong, very wrong in saying only redheads can carry off flesh-colored dresses.

Or maybe she’s not a real redhead, just fleshy balloons in a red wig…yikes.

mad men, who cares .. nice to zone out on celeb fluff, no work tomorrow

I have suddenly remembered the benefit of the three-day weekend again: no COURT tomorrow either!

Are your fingers up again on Tuesday? Great job, by the way.

in that palette of ugly dress shade

yes your brain and fingers get some extra richly-deserved rest .. and the neanderthals get an extra day to sweat :)

oops that was a reply to teddy

Oh, I actually liked the color of the dress, a shade of not-quite grey, not quite heliotrope. But the neckline wasn’t quite right, a shame since the fabric and the back were so nice.

Would have been improved by the application of a brassiere. [sigh]

And a better hair style — far too severe.

Tarantino’s name barely generates a ripple of applause during this guy’s speech, but the camera caught Q’s reaction to the paucity.

sorry Jane Lynch didn’t win .. never seen her current show, but luvz her

It’s the best of the batch, but the ruffle…arrgh. and her har yes, way too stiff…

Loved her in The L Word

Oh DiNiro is clever…this is a bit smutty

Leo is really good at reading the teleprompter…

Great speech And Martin S is FEAKINg enius.

We saw Taxi Driver as a field trip in high school. Had to get permission slips.

i tried to watch my netflix disc of The Proposal today, of course it froze 2/3 way through despite repeated laundering and every trick in my bag .. GOD laserdisc technology has never ceased to blow donkey and annoy the FUCK out of one

anyway, what i saw of The Proposal wasn’t bad .. Sandra rilly can carry any movie, dunno why but she’s irresistable, watchable

omg, Sandra Bernhard in King of Comedy .. what an incredible movie

Great montage!

Ah. Now THAT was an acceptance speech.

Thank you, Martin Scorsese, thank you.

unsurprisingly, Scorsese smart, no nonsense, eloquent

i thought he was a quite natural actor in Round Midnight too

Jody Foster in… THE BEAVER????

um, what?

Jodie! i gotta wear shades!

Shane did her hair!

Ricky G: ” I like to drink as much as the next man, unless the next man is Mel Gibson.”

Mel isn’t very sober

Cameron wins for Avatar.

Cameron: “Gonna be brief, cause I gotta pee something fierce.”

if James Cameron doesn’t get a haircut he risks finding himself on the “men who look like old lesbians” website

Oh thanks James for the over sharing about your pee issues, Cameron.

CGI movies creep me out

worst speech so far: Chloe Sevigny

drew was pretty bad

note to self: don’t get tattoo on face

I think Mike Tyson thought he was going to give the acceptance speech for The Hangover, somebody pushed him away from the microphone.

yeah, Drew and Chloe are prolly a tie

Best Motion Picture – Comedy Or Musical

- The Hangover

so far its kinda boring imo

Jodie Foster is actually starring in AND directing The Beaver. But the beaver actually belongs to Mel Gibson,who wears it on his hand.

omg our failed governor

Arnold is totally kissing Cameron’s ass right now. Arnold’s going to need a job in a year or so I guess.

Is Arnold introducing Avedon or Avatar?

Ron Athey one of the NEA Four wrote a great essay about facial tattoos and how he had potential landlords react rather badly to his. His conclusion, don’t get them unless you’re him.

Like many people today, to look at me you wouldn’t know I have tattoos. But I have enough that I fall in the to deviant category.

Scorsese’s speech was cool. Most of this has been a real snooze…

good, the less of Arnold the better

ARNOLD..why is he introducing Avatar..oh bad jokes.

He needs to talk about the importance of shooting in CA

That would have been a good speech.

good, Sandra won so maybe the Precious gal will win now too

Was mel given Inglourious Basterds as a sop for his “jews” comments when arrested and his basic anti semitism?

Sleeper for the Oscars…?

i hope. he is really, really good in the role.

Bridges could win an Oscar. He’s done great work for so many years.

Jeff gets my vote for best speech of the night (Marty’s doesn’t count because he had time to prepare….) simply for thanking his dad (sorry, old enough to remember Sea Hunt reruns….so I have a soft spot…)

yeah, julia, cause the moment is all about you. jeesus.

omg Sea Hunt!

Best Motion Picture – Drama
- Avatar

Ugh.

I’d say even Tarantino was robbed.

Dances with Smurfs

Oh jesus James Cameron, enough with your incontinence issues.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has only 86 members.

Nice work Ricky, you showed the show what it is really about.

Thank you all for joning us! We”ll be doing the Oscars–with some special guests!

wow, they’re re-broadcasting the show here on the west coast.

How exciting — we Left Coasters get to see the entire programme again! Which is wonderful because Patrick just got home from work.

With all the dissing of Avatar and Glee, well, SOME of us westcoasters are gonna go off and indulge in Desperate Housewives and Brothers&Sisters (yes, with Sally “you really like me!” Field)….

You noticed that too, eh?

A friend of mine actually walked out of Avatar because of the shallow scripting (as he put it). I haven’t seen it yet.

Yah, I know people like that. Serves them right to think that just because it’s got subtitles for the blue people that it’s going to be Francois Truffaut…

Seriously, James Cameron directed it, if you expect “great art” you get what you deserve. The rest of us enjoyed it because it’s got action, really ground-breaking special effects, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney at her Ripley-best, and a great librul, tree-huggin’ message (put those box-office receipts in your snowmobile gas tank and smoke ‘em, Sarah!). What’s not to like?

Avatar was very mediocre aside from special effects. Same movie in 2 D would be a flop. Dances with Wolves meets the Ewoks.

I liked Bastards, but a few scenes of really unnecessary gruesome violence. I don’t mind violence in movies, but a few parts were beyond. Even so, two masterpiece scenes–the farm house opener and the basement tavern–make it worth seeing and awarding.

My pick was Hurt Locker which grabbed you from “go” and didn’t let up.

ack! so sorry I missed this thread – a good one Lisa !

oooh forgot about Round Midnight – Scorcese in Quiz Show - a yummy performance
