Oscars 2007 Live Blog - Pan’s going strong with three

And Costume Design goes to Marie Antoinette. Didn’t dig the live fashion montage though. The time they saved with other categories has been wasted here. 

Finally, a Jean Herscholt award going to someone worth noting. And a short speech to boot! Me likey.

Best Cinematography goes to Pan’s Lab. Dang. Picked Children of Men. Their third award for the night. I believe I am the only one who has not seen this movie. Even my whitey friends whose ideas of foreign movies are badly dubbed chopsocky movies. No seriously. How does that happen? Now I have to go in shame to see it as the ticket taker knows I’m only seeing it because it’s won all these awards. So embarrassed. 

Awww….I love the MasterCard commercial with the elephant. Sweetness.

I can’t stand Robert Downey Jr and lo and behold another self deprecating joke about his druggie phase. Dude, you’re a has-been who lucked out with a second chance that you’re not even taking advantage of. Go do TV or something.  He’s presenting Visual Effects with Naomi Watts. And the Oscar goes to Pirates of the Caribbean.

Best foreign language film goes to The Lives of Others. Dang…I rested on Pan’s when I heard this could be the upset.

George Clooney, who equals the just exited Clive Owen in incredibly stunning handsomeness finally comes to the stage for Best Supporting Actress which goes to Jennifer Hudson. Surprise. Now why she gotta go and say “I didn’t think I was going to win”? Chick…who you foolin’?
