Oscar Post-Mortem

Well, I pretty much struck out on what I hoped to see from the Oscars last night, though I can't say I'm surprised. I found the telecast pretty dull, though I didn't mind co-host James Franco as much as other commentators I've read today; at least I preferred his laid back approach to the somewhat manic Anne Hathaway. In the end, the best part to me was that Lena Horne got a little extra attention at the end of the Memorial montage, which was more than warranted as far as I'm concerned. And kudos to the guys from Inception who won for Cinematography and Sound Editing for crediting their union crews for their role in those wins. Even more reason for me to think that was the real movie of the year.
