More Oscar predictions
Not from me this time, but from a blog clearly no one is supposed to pronounce out loud, Izzle! Izzle pfaff!
This may be the only guy to be making predictions having seen less of the nominated films than I have. But what I find really quarrelsome is his attitudes towards some of the best actress nominees.
“BEST ACTRESS
Oh Kate! Sweet Kate! I would love for you to win! You will not. Because, apparently, your movie is a doleful bowl of treacle. (But go ahead and wear something low-cut.)”</b>
He’s encouraging Kate Winslet to wear a low-cut dress to the ceremonies, yet…
“BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
…Virginia Madsen is here too, a stalwart actress who might one day set a longevity record for being kind of hot. She will get zip.”</b>
What the hell does this guy mean “kind of” hot? She’s been at least in the top five of hot since 1984. Granted, Winslet is yummy. I’m just saying, clearly this guy has never seen The Hot Spot. Although again, granted, to the layman, Ms. Madsen’s presence in that film might be overshadowed by the first nude scenes of a 19-year-old Jennifer Connelly. But I digress.
Neat little digression, though, wasn’t it?
“…Astute readers might also note that I neglected to mention Natalie Portman. This is because she is beneath mention, and is, in fact, worthless. Dear Natalie: please stop.)”
Man, I find Natalie Portman kind of annoying as a personality, but this guy really hates her.
