There were more than a couple of things I hated about the Oscars this year, but right now I'm basking in a post-Oscar glow that is overwhelmingly positive. Here are the highlights of the 2008 Oscars for me:
The hot chocolate, doughnuts, and ice cream that I inhaled while the glitterati of Hollywood had to endure a six-hour fast in the Kodak theater
The list of movies coming out in 2009 (which I can look forward to Netflixing in 2010)
Hugh Jackman's joyfulness and Australian-ness
The shout-outs to the actors and movies that weren't nominated for anything (which made the nominees look pretty good, by comparison)
Tina Fey plus Steve Martin
Freida Pinto's blue dress
The Meryl Streep worship
The realization that Amanda Seyfried had three simultaneous fathers in Mama Mia! and three simultaneous mothers in Big Love
The accountants from PricewaterhouseCoopers taking a cute nerdy stroll down the red carpet

Great post. When I watch the Oscars I pretty much only remember who wins best picture. Slightly less profound than your post here.
