Oscars Wrap-Up

Well it was most definitely a big snoozer last night, although no real surprises there. The Oscars are always laborious and drawn-out and last night was no exception. Ellen fizzled as a host and I really felt bad for her. Those shadow human puppets were pointless, Celine Dion just plain scary, and the entire thing looked cheap compared to every other year (although that probably had something to do with everything been ‘green’ this year).

Oscar Predictions 2007

Well I’m getting these up just before the awards are announced. Just like last year, I’m going to include which nominees I want to see win and which one’s most probably will win. Obviously some of these will be guesses as I haven’t seen every film nominated.

- Jaden Smith is the new Karate Kid
  I LOVE the first film so this is sacrilege. Plus Jaden is only 10 years old! Why not just make a different movie altogether? Via comingsoon.
- Pleasefixtheiphone
  Copy and paste. Flash in Safari? Yes please. They also need a pleasefixtheipodtouch.com because it should be able to take photos & use GPS like the iPhone. Via Pleasefixtheiphone

  Oh yes he does! Ha! Via Splicd.
- New MacBook and MacBook Pro's
  Sexy but farking expensive for us Aussies. Via Apple.

  Guess it makes sense to fast track this project right now. Via theage.
- Cracking Open the 4th Gen iPod Nano's
  I tried opening my 4th Gen 40GB old skool iPod a couple of years back and broke mine. Don't try this at home! Via CNET UK.
- Wall-E
  
  Ultimately charming and heart-warming Pixar effort is a sheer delight from start to finish. Homage's to 2001, E.T and all your favourite childhood Sci-Fi movies are plentiful and just to realise so much emotion from an animated robot that hardly talks throughout the entire movie is a feat in itself. The Blu-ray version will be stunning!
- 50 Amazing Gig Posters

- 50 Beautiful Movie Posters
  Always loved Hitchcock's posters. Via Smashing Magazine.
- New M. Ward Solo LP
  Didn't absolutely love She and Him but loved Post-War. His solo record is entitled Hold Time, out Feb 2009. Via Paste.
