I am amazed at how fast information travels.
No sooner than five seconds after "Crash" was named the surprise Best Picture winner, did the listing for that film on Wikipedia become updated with this information.
Wikipedia is fantastic. I love the way that anyone can update and edit the information. You end up with a virtual mirror of how online-mass-culture view world events and happenstance.
I have no idea why I watched the Oscars.
I saw absolutely none of the movies that were nominated.
I did not know any of the actors, nor do I care how they feel or what they wear.
It's like watching a bunch of strange faces dress up.
It's like attending somebody else's prom.
I think that giving someone an award for best actor is ridiculous.
Acting is just pretending.
I once knew someone who pretended to be an Actress. I guess that the action of pretending to be someone you clearly are not and believing it makes you a good actress, which in itself validates the original claim. Interesting.
Calling someone best actor is like saying best pretender. Best faker. Best phony.
I could pretend to win that award.
I think that my Gingivitis-fighting toothpaste is giving me Gingivitis.
