The Oscar’s weren’t that extremely boring last night.  Maybe that’s because you had Hugh Jackman triggering his inner gay with Zac Efron while Beyonce’s leg tried to eat Jackman up.  Luckily Robert Pattinson brought the hotness, but I was let down that Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston didn’t get into a bitch slapping fest.  Oh well, at least I had Mickey Rourke’s choice of outfit to keep me occupied.

The most moving part of the night was when Heath Ledger’s family came up to accept the award on his behalf.  Their speeches were quite beautiful and basically made everyone cry in the audience.  Even the evil Angie shed a tear!

Anyway, you all should know by now that Slumdog Millionaire swept the awards with eight wins out of their eight nominations.  Yeah, that’s a sweep…I can count.
