The Oscars – Quick thoughts

Random thoughts during this year’s Oscars telecast – most taken using Dragon Dictation on the iPod: (If I had my Twitter account on the go, I’d use that…)

  • The Kirk Douglas animatronic robot is amazingly lifelike.
  • The sound of heckling – doesn’t happen often, but I’m hearing it on occasion – really comes through clearly on the surround sound speakers.
  • It seems to me that the audience is very subdued. In many instances, it seems they’re not responding at all.
  • It’s a little frightening that Randy Newman sounds so close to the parodies of always done on “Family Guy”and “The Simpsons.”
  • Obama? On the Oscars? Really??
  • James Franco looks as if he doesn’t know where he is.
  • Zachary Levi is singing at the Oscars! Chuck  fans must be estastic.
  • Is that Adrian Brody on that Stella Artois commercial?
  • Who thought it was a good like to have the head of ABC actually on camera ? Who really cares where the Oscars are going to be broadcast for the next nine years?
  • Hate to say it, but Anne Hathaway is winning me over with her enthusiasm.
