The Oscars Live Blog - First 30 Minutes

So, it's 8:26 and we're all ready to go.  The snacks got picked up this morning, the glass has been filled.  Mrs Media Room and I have made our picks.  We've watched as many of the films as we had time to watch.  I even took a quick 3 hour nap this afternoon because chances are this bad boy isn't ending until almost midnight.

8:30 - Mr Narrator himself opens the show.  What's the deal with the one glove?

8:31 - Billy always has the best opening montages!  I find it so cool how they put those together.

8:36 - I'm reminded of Billy Crystal in Soap back in the 1970's for some reason, Billy has to be around 60 and is looking pretty good.  He's actually 63, had time to look it up during the singing bit.

8:42 - That guy from Bosom Buddies is the first presenter of the evening.  Hugo gets the first award for Cinematography.

8:44 - Double up the awards presentation for the star of the film The Burbs, Art Direction.  Hugo again. 

8:46 - Wow, those Bell commercials are awful and that Ashley Judd show looks ridiculous.

8:51 - A nice Anti-Piracy commercial reminding the criminals of the world just how much joy one could have by actually going to the theatre.

8:53 - Welcome the star of The Mask and a former Fly Girl from In Living Color bringing us Costume Design.  The night of The Artist begins.

8:56 - Double up awards again, flying right along.  Make Up is here and that goes to The Iron Lady.

The first 30 minutes is up.
