Yay new format, yay Hugh Jackman! Nearly all of the planned stuff was perfect. I loved the way they handled everything that had been annoying in the past. Medleys, thank you. Movie clips were blended very well. Liked the nods to prior films. Presenters were mostly great. The sets were fantastic. Jackman out-BillyCrystaled Billy Crystal.
Can't believe Wall-E didn't get something for sound. Sound was the entire movie.
Nicole Kidman is the only person who can pull of feathers like that. Just seeing her for those brief moments made me want to see Australia in spite of all I've heard.
Mickey Rourke had one of the best outfits. So many men can't seem to figure out how to do black tie interestingly.
There's a billion other things to say but it's been a long day. Great swanking, LSPE and Tom!
ETA - watching the Oscars in HD means wrinkles, bad makeup, and bad surgery show up even more hideously.
