A couple of Oscar thoughts

I took notes while watching the Oscars last night.  Here they are, with added thoughts in blue.

• I was expecting a funny cold open.  Not that Morgan Freeman isn't awesome, but still...
• Ha ha...never mind!!
• Okay, seriously...Billy Crystal should host the Oscars every single year!!!
• Sandra Bullock = :)
• Yay for Octavia Spencer!  She is fan-FREAKING-tastic in that movie!!!  (And what a gorgeous dress!!!) 
• I'm kind of liking the non-traditional orchestra.  (They got annoying later.)
• Focus Group Spoof was funny!!
• Cirque du Soleil part was AWESOME!
• Robert Downey Jr. & Gwyneth Paltrow = so funny!  (I look forward to see the documentary "The Presenter".  LOL!)
• I don't care how many movies he's done or how much he hated making that one, but Christopher Plummer will always be Captain Von Trapp in "The Sound of Music".
• I <3 Meryl Streep!!!
• Dear Natalie Portman:  Don't clap on the envelope when it's next to the microphone.
• Yay for Jean DuJardin!!!  (He is amazing in "The Artist"!  Absolutely AMAZING!!)
• Meryl Streep beat Viola Davis?!?!  Whaaaaaaaaaat?????  (I love me some Meryl Streep, but Viola was robbed.)
• Meryl is one classy lady!!!
• THE ARTIST WINS BEST PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
• It was a good year for Oscar.  Some surprises, some....not surprises.  A good night!
