Oscar Wrap up

I made it to about 10pm Oscar night. Boy they take forever to do very little. Thoughts from the show... I liked bringing back "and the winner is....", I loved the John Hughes tribute with the brat pack and 80s music. I think that Mr. Shankman is more in tuned with GenXers and it showed.
Hooray for Kathryn Bigelow- the first woman to win an Oscar for directing. Here's hoping many more will follow in her footsteps. I think the Academy got it wrong with selecting Hurt Locker as best picture, Avatar changed the way we watch movies. Take a look at this weekend's amazing returns with Alice in Wonderland and the reboot Spider-Man 4 is undergoing. I also read that Mr. Cameron doesn't play well with others and hasn't won many friends.

Did you take any of our menu suggestions? We enjoyed soft pretzels ( Inglorious Basterds), blue corn chips and pineapple salsa (Avatar), gummy worms (District 9), and lava cakes (Hurt Locker). They were fun munchies for a semi-interesting evening.
