2010 oscar run down.

okay. let's get this out on the table right now. oscar season is my christmas...

celebrities galore.

heavy emphasis on quality movies.

fancy dresses.

a token drunk guy on the red carpet.

awkward live television.

a hidden political agenda.

hours of ryan seacrest.

mmm... a recipe for heaven.

oh, and let's not forget - two years running, i NAILED my oscar picks. i mean..... at what point do i put money on the line?

and, in honor of acceptance speeches, i'd like to thank the following for making this year's academy of motion picture season possible:

jen parker, the davis family, and kevin tenney for being great oscar nominated movie watching partners, the best western hotel in villahermosa mex for airing the live broadcast of the nominations while i was on vacation and completely removed from current events, the broadway theater for being the only theater in salt lake city to carry most of these movies, larry miller and the gateway megaplex 12 for carrying the rest, the redbox at the maverik down the street for always having the good movies in stock, and above all... diet coke for carrying me through 30 hours of movie watching.

that said, here we go. my thoughts.

FIRST. first... someone feed this lady a sandwich. she's STARVING.

demi moore - best dressed. all the way. she wasn't even an important part of the show. not nominated for anything... hasn't even done anything great this year... but i think she stole the night.

even though she's known as the pretty vampire in a series i canNOT stand, she wore a very pretty dress. and i couldn't help but not hate her a little less last night.

i've been meaning to blog about this for a while... but hallelujah, sandra helps me out. a REAL woman is not afraid to tuck her hair behind her ears. even when she's supposed to look super amazing. gives me hope for a future wedding day... since my hair knows none other than straight and tucked behind my ears.

i love this man. as the newest addition to the fridge, i was proud to see him in this whacky green tie and matching shades. oh, and he wore tennis shoes. word.

don't know where elizabeth banks came from, but she was g-l-a-m.

attention: cinnamon rolls. sick.

cutest nominee, carrie mulligan.

i would love to be this pretty someday.

2010 was the year of fairy princess dresses. lots of pastels {which, apparently is the color scheme of the season. sick.}. lots of sparkles. lots of extra fabric. j. lo totally got the memo. i think she wrote the memo.

why is she always HERE? seriously, miley cyrus. so you do a nicholas sparks movie and you're suddenly a movie star? and STAND UP STRAIGHT. don't look so irritated about being here. and wear more clothes.... or did you dad threaten to ground you if you didn't wear that bustier?

hot mess of the night. sjp. tame the fly aways, lighten up on the eyeliner, and lay off the self tanner.

no time to rest. must catch the movies i missed - the last station, a single man, stanley tucci in lovely bones, an education...
