What will you do instead of watching Oscar? [and now Oscar discussion]

I liked what I thought was a clubbier feel to the show, and I thought Hugh Jackman came off well, although I always feel there is something slight and lacking in gravitas about him.

I saw very few of the nominated movies this year, and I didn't think that the ponderous tributes by the acting presenters did anything to make me want to see them. I did, however, like Michael Douglas's comment that Frank Langella's performance made you forget all other Nixons--when Anthony Hopkins is standing right there on stage.

And I'm sorry: The memorial was terrible.
