(How it is is boring, incidentally.) 11:30 PM ... Improperly again! But an attractive speech from Meryl Streep cures all ails. You can't hate round the Iron Lady. 11:24 PM ... Best Actress time. I've had money on Michelle Williams but, again, I've been wrong before. Very, very wrong. 11:18 PM ... Aaaand I'm wrong. Good you, Jean Dujardin. 11:14 PM ... Best Actor time.

Best director visits Michel Hazanavicius for "The Artist," clearing the area of the incredible opportunity to with one another drink to Scorsese's title. 10:50 PM ... Michael Douglas... papa Kirk can be a tough act to follow along with together with. 10:43 PM ... Much like that, the consuming game "Scorsese" was produced. Thanks, Ms. McCarthy. 10:41 PM ... Be truthful, on title alone, you're rooting for "Time Freak." 10:38 PM ... Okay, nevermind! "Bridesmaids" onstage appearance, triggered! Allow me to think I merely willed this into existence. 10:30 PM ... Champion Woodsy Allen. You acquired it. But curse you for gradually wrecking the area of the an onstage "Bridesmaids" appearance. 10:27 PM ... "The Descendants" is about the board. Useful for your Clooney-Lillard scene alone. Fantastic movie. (Clearly, I wouldn't have hated a sixth "Hugo" win, but it is how it is!) 10:19 PM ... Thanks Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis not just for your cymbals, but additionally for showing Best Song to "Muppet or possibly a man.Inch There's no acceptable alternative. 10:14 PM ... "The Artist" scores its second award to find the best Original Score. I am unable to say I cared for the film, nevertheless it warrants that certain. 10:09 PM ... Every mentions of Andy Dufresne / "Shawshank Redemption" are welcome in this particular place. Also, this is actually the best Nick Nolte impression ever. 10:01 PM ... Plummer wins! At 82 years old, he's the first actor to win an Oscar! He absolutely warrants this. You will find seen "Beginners" yet, fix that mistake now. It's a wonderful film that warrants a Best Picture jerk over a lot of the particular nominees. 9:58 PM ... Okay, Best Supporting Actor time. My money is still on Christopher Plummer. No way he handles to get rid of that certain. Von Trapp for your win. 9:56 PM ... "Hugo" is becoming around five wins. That's the good thing. Unhealthy news: "Harry Potter" handles to get rid of Visual Effects, and handles to get rid of on its nominations on the way. Mischief unmanaged. 9:50 PM ... Bonus of RDJ showing documentary: with this instant, "RDJ Tebowing" is trending on Twitter. The earth is a superb place. 9:47 PM ... I am unable to say I'm not pumped for "Rango," though. That movie is actually wonderfully bizarre. Good runner-up, but nevertheless no "Tintin." 9:45 PM ... Best Animated Feature can be a touchy subject personally. There's pointless in the world that "The Adventures of Tintin" shouldn't win this category... which is not necessarily nominated. Uncool. 9:41 PM ... A Robert Downey Junior. documentary might be awesome if he's at character as Tony Stark the whole time. Found-footage "Iron Guy" movie might be invincible. 9:38 PM ... That Cirque du Solei number needed more "Spider-Guy: Turn off the Dark." Plus much more Muppets and Jason Segel. 9:34 PM ... Kermit and Miss Piggy showing Cirque du Solei instead of Jason Segal for "Muppet or possibly a manInch might be minimal awesome usage of a Muppet ever. 9:28 PM ... Okay! "Hugo" for four! This is often an optimistic factor! 9:26 PM ... Three for "Hugo" after Appear Editing! Similarly, I am very pleased! Alternatively, "Drive" is formally shut in the race. Ryan Gosling fans (Hollywood Crush editor Amy Wilkinson especially), you are pardoned for tuning out now. 9:24 PM ... Film editing visits "Dragon Tattoo," and there's much rejoicing. Not the most popular film of year, no, however am very surprised about how little love Fincher's adaptation got inside the nominations. Nice to find out it take something it truly warrants so in the beginning. 9:22 PM ... Bradley Cooper, I wasn't behind you for many sexy guy of year. Your brand-new skeevy mustache has immediately remedied my position. #noithasnt 9:18 PM ... Christopher Guest and pals should participate every single focus group tests to any extent further. They need to also constantly be required to sing "Stool Boom" at mentioned tests. 9:13 PM ... Christian Bale is "typically the most popular guy inside the room,In . Octavia? You must do know you'll find ignore Bale-starring Batman movies after this summer's "Increases," right? Nice try though! 9:12 PM ... "The AssistanceInch is formally round the board. Octavia Spencer takes Best Supporting Actress. It will likely be an enormous shock when the shook out almost every other way, though I'll say, I'd have loved to find out Melissa McCarthy on that stage. 9:09 PM ... Speaking about "Newsies," it's Batman! Christian Bale, searching rather cozy round the Oscar stage. 9:06 PM ... "A Separation" takes Best Foreign film, as much had predicted. I badly are interested in that certain. 9:04 PM ... "Newsies" musical commercial = most fun factor I'll look out of the evening. Also, guaranteed that I'll have "King of NY" locked in my skull for your relaxation in the evening. No complaints. 8:58 PM ... Meryl leads "Iron Lady" for his or her first win with Best Makeup. Elsewhere, Griphook is relocating the grave. 8:55 PM ... "The Artist" begins its virtually assured warpath by getting an award for Costume Design. The running tally: "Hugo" - 2, "Artist" - 1, The Earth - . 8:53 PM ... Random montage of "Exorcist" mind-spinning, "AlienInch TIE Fighter-ing, and "Twilight" make-out tease. Clearly, Hollywood can be a diverse office. 8:47 PM ... Two wins for "Hugo" rapidly the softball softball bat, but in the fee for "Harry Potter." Already snubbed without any Best Picture nomination, it's searching like the unfortunate streak might have to go on for "Potter" throughout Oscar evening. Talking about "Harry Potter's" Oscar snub! 8:45 PM ... And also the other for "Hugo," let us concentrate on Art Direction. Oscar evening is away and off to a good beginning for that friendly neighborhood blog editor. 8:43 PM ... Achievement in Cinematography starts the evening! And Martin Scorsese's "Hugo" might be the very first champion round the board! Very good news personally, "Hugo" is undoubtedly the most popular in the bunch this year. 8:38 PM ... "Oscar! Oscar!" Welcome back, Billy. 8:35 PM ... Billy Very looks less like live-action Tintin and the majority a lot more like grown-up Junior from "Problem Child." Much less there's anything wrong with this particular. 8:33 PM ... A Attacking Youthful Boys cameo this at the beginning of the telecast? It'll be a extended evening. 8:31 PM ... Beginning the showcase with Morgan Freeman? Never a terrible idea. 8:28 PM ... My predictions coming with the evening, starting with supporting groups: Christopher Plummer for "Beginners," and Octavia Spencer for "The Help.In . There will not be any shocks throughout such groups, nor if there's both of these stars completely deserve their honours. (Though I wouldn't complain of a Melissa McCarthy upset!) 8:25 PM ... Random side note: every time I see Oscar producer John Grazer, I keep thinking how awesome he'd be as Boyd Crowder's estranged uncle on "Justified." Just look, they're identical: 8:20 PM ... ten mins to demonstrate time. You're drained of chances to put bets. Who do you have taking home the big honours tonight?
