hour's worth of shots of Clooney: he's an asshole. He looked like his 'rhoids were killing him and then he started to make faces at the camera when it showed him. Churlish, childish and hardly expected in a major "star."
Whoever came up with the idea of having folks deliver lengthy encomiums right in front of the nominees should be boiled in oil. Embarrassing, tasteless.
Interesting that NO one here is speaking about "Precioius" or the Bollock film. Oh, wait... they are about blacks, aren't they? No racism here, nah, move along. Just a coincidence that best actress and best supporting actress featuring film is invisible....
2nd biggest idiot award goes to... the guy who starred in "Avatar." Chewing gum at the mike? What's he thinking?
Penelope Cruz proved she is THE smokingest babe in film. (A certain assistant that was very tall and dark-haired was surrealy beautiful, too).
It is amusing to see how wooden and nervous many "stars" get in front of their peers. Sean Penn, however, wasn't one of those. He was sincere, calm, and delivered his lines well as did Matt Damon.
All in all, a pretty good time.
