I'm just pointing out to the world just how much of a cinema fan I am. I will be staying up to watch the Oscar's live tonight. Oh yes, the red carpet and all. I will be gawking at Joan River's interviews while simultaneously making a weight loss regimen as I see Sandra Bullock, Scarlett Johansson and every other woman in entertainment enter the event. I plan on judging these women strictly on how they look tonight, and I will not feel bad about it. I don't have class until 3pm tomorrow so I am in luck. My predictions are as follows
Best Actor
Colin Firth
Best Actress
Natalie Portman (although I personally believe that Jennifer Lawrence should win, i doubt the hollywood foreign press will agree with me)
Best Film
Inception
My Philosophy:
I love the Oscars. BUT. I believe that actors make far too much money for merely entertaining others. There are people who work in hospitals in Africa fixing children's cleft pallets pro bono. Teachers barely make enough money to live on, and they are nearly 50% responsible for how a child will grow up and their chances at a future. Cameron Diaz makes on average 10 million dollars a movie. That is insane. My thoughts are relatively similar when it comes to professional athletes, but i will not get into the gender discrimination in athletics. Therefore I promise that if i ever become a famous actress, I will donate an enormous portion of my income to those who need it more than I do. Thank you for listening to my rant, and I look forward to how many people get serenaded off stage by the pit band because they thanked God, Jesus, the disciples, and their publicists wife's cousin's sister for too long.
Goodnight and Goodluck
