Oscar blatherings (Spoilers)
Mar. 24th, 2003 06:40 pmHee hee, most of my yesterday was spent going Kimi won, and most of my today has been Adrien Brody won.
Best Picture: Chicago
Well that's 0/1 in both hopes and predictions.
Best Actor in a Leading Role: Adrien Brody for The Pianist
Okay so 0/2 in predictions but oh my word someone who I actually wanted to win won. (Cue bouncing)
Best Director: Roman Polanski for The Pianist
Whee, they let him win. And his maxi-me won the best actor award. It really is most peculiar how much like each other Polanski and Brody sound.
Total - Hopes: 7/20, predictions 11/20
I'm actually quite good at predictions for these things. Although I humbly suggest that the Academy kind of forgot that Gangs of NY existed. Poor Martin.

Mar. 24th, 2003 11:13 pmCould someone tell me why the labels inside clothes have to itch so much?
I wish to make an addition to the things I hate - the imperfect tense. The only thing it does is make me tense.
(Yes I am aware there is something wrong when one hates a part of grammar quite that much)
I don't get it in English and I damn well don't get it in German. (Curtails rant about how the only people who ever use the imperfect in German are posh journalists and blasted northerners.)
Oh and Mr. Cooper, sir, if you're acceptance speech is more ott emotional that Catherine Zeta Hormonal and Emotional Jones, you have a problem.
