To get us in the mood, how about some
games?Apparently my perfect date in Sean Penn. Ew. And I'm Scarlett O'Hara. Yay.
Meanwhile, I'm tipping Crash to upset BBM in the Best Pic category. But the other statuettes to go home with the favourites, though I am praying Felecity knocks off Reese and Jake gets a win because I adore them both.

I agree. Go Crash and Felicity Huffman.
My ideal date is Leonardo DiCaprio and my character is Erin Brockovich.

Ok, I realized I did that date thing WRONG the last time, so that one doesn't count. Doing it correctly I end up with Tom Hanks.. a much, much better Tom to end up with IMO.
Of course my husband is sitting her laughing at me.. he's a "Tom" too.. seems I can't get away from them.

Biba, put in the info (height, sign, hair color, etc) of the guy you want, not your own info. Think about it, how many women fall into the 6'2'' and up group? The height choices go way down if you play it as a guy. (my Tom ended up with Renee Zellweger)

This time I ended up with Sean Penn! Tsk tsk tsk!
I won't play again, cause my dream date wouldn't even be in that list anyway!
Thanks for the tips Kristy!

Ok I'm going to make myself leave the TV for a while.. I've been watching E!'s pre-red carpet stuff for the past couple of hours now. The official red carpet show starts in 45 minutes, so I'll probably be back for that.
Man I need a life!!

Yes I was actually uncomfortable watching it.
Isaac is annoying me to no end.. I'd much rather see Ryan down there instead. I take it there is no alternative with Joan this year like we had last year? That's unfortunate.
George looks good, but that's no surprise. Kiera looks pretty. Isaac is still annoying.. lol. Too bad we don't have chat here! But I suppose once the show starts I'll be in the other room.. I told the husband he loses the tv at 7pm.

Mar 5 2006, 06:49 PM
Wow, Michelle Williams looks...not good. The colour of the dress totally washes her out and the make up was bad as well. Usually she looks great.
Kiera looked nice...but it was pretty plain. Nothing special.
George looks hot, as if that's a suprise and Eric Bana is such a legend.

Mar 5 2006, 06:56 PM
What time is it where you are Megilly? I just noticed I didn't add the time thing to this new purple skin..
You're right about Michelle's dress, it's pretty but the color does nothing for her at all. I missed Rachel Weiz (love her!), guess she came early to avoid the crunch, can't say I blame her. I'll have to go look for a pic of her dress.
Amy Adams looked pretty, but I have no clue who she is.

Mar 5 2006, 07:13 PM
It's like 10.40 am here. The annoying thing? We don't get the ceremony until 9 pm, so I've got a while to wait for the show.
Jessica Alba looks stunning. She's absolutely gorgeous, I just can't stand her personality or her 'acting'. And Sandra Bullock looks awesome.
But it's been a pretty boring red carpet so far. I'm waiting for the 3 Jennifers and Reese to show, they're always interesting.

Ugh, even with Mizrahi doing terrible interviews, E! had the best coverage. I don't get the TV Guide channel since I just flipped over to where it's supposed to be to find out that my apartment complex has a camera trained on the entrance so we can see who drives up. Sorry, it creeped me out so I rambled

ABC needs to cut these crappy little montages out. The monkey one annoyed me to no end.
And so far I think Keira's my best dressed pick.
kristy
Mar 5 2006, 07:38 PM
Everybody cut out at 6:30 except for ABC, makes me think it's some kind of deal ABC has that they get exclusive coverage starting then.
I'm bummed more of the people I like didn't come earlier, ABC had Jennifer Aniston and Reese, but it was quick. Guess we'll have to wait for ET, Extra, and all those guys to get more stuff.

Getty has a pic of JLo up and her dress looks...horrible and I hate the color.
It kinda looks like a rip off of Garner's 04 dress with a different neckline.

Hmm, I can't quite decide if I like J Lo's dress or not. Jennifer A looks great, though her hair is a bit plain.

I LOVE Garner's dress! Getty has one of her up now too and she has definitely lost the baby weight.
Edit: And what is the the big bow on Charlize's dress....

I don't like JLo's dress, and I've never liked it when she pulls her hair back that tight.. she's waaaaaaaaay too orange as well.
I like JA's dress, but I really wish she'd do something different with her hair.
Did JenG not do the carpet at all?

Keira Knightly and Jessica Alba look good.
I agree with you guys, Michelle Williams dress is beautiful but the wrong color for her.

Rachel Weisz looks beautiful. She doesn't look 7 months.
I didn't like Naomi Watts dress.
Lauren Hutton looked horrible.

And what's she presenting again? I thought it was Sci-Fi, but that was green suit floating head Stiller 
Wheee, we're having an Oscar thread! I just logged on, Jennifer Anniston, beautiful... And I cheered loudly when Clooney won. Considering it was 1 am... :)

George Clooney won !
Charlize needs to take that BIG BOW off her dress. It's to distracting.
I like Sandra Bullock's dress.
Jen G looks beautiful

. Her dress is pretty. She has worn prettier dresses in the past.
I'm glad she didn't fall. Ben wasn't there to catch her this time

. She lost the baby weight - AND she got her ears pierced ... I must say she was one of the most lively presenters of the night. Samuel L. Jackson kept me awake also.
J Lo's eye makeup is to dark. Once again (Over done), you can't see her eyes at all.
I didn't like her hair. I did like her Jen G. Affleck (kind of look a like dress) though.
