Oscar Weekend... with sunny warm weather & Raspberry

This was a nice weekend. Weekend of sunshine, nice warm weather, lots of relaxing & sleeping, almost no work done... and Razzies & Oscars. Well, the weather kinda cheated. It said it'll ran, but it didn't. It was all nice, sunny & warm & beautiful. I am not complaining, just saying that proper noice would be nice. Friday night was cold which I spent watching Bang Bang Club preview. Saturday was spent at gym & home (I am working out a LOT). I did have a Shake Shack Burger from uptown. Al I can eat there is the veggie burger (rest all is BEEF) & there black & white Shake which is NICE.

Sunday was spent resting mostly. There was supposed to be an Oscar viewing party in Lincoln Center whichI found was canceled after getting there all dressed up. So I had to settle for watching the Academy awards aka Oscars at home. I was quite please by the awards this time. Not as much by hosts. James Franco & Anne Hathaway were the youngest people to host Oscar, also the first (straight) couple. James looked high (wassup with dressing as DRAG??) and Anne was chirpy/bubbly but not fun/funny. She did have some nice dresses on, some. I find most of these Oscar dresses/gowns ugly. It's all about "who" are you wearing than what are you wearing. Mila Kunis sis have a nice dress on though.... Awards were kinda well deserved unlike some nominations (Kids are alright, really? Annette Benning was really that good??). Christian Bale really deserved his award (inspite of the fact I haven't seen The Fighter, but liked him in all his other work including Machinist). BTW, he does great British accent, very convincing. Natalie Portman did deserve the best actress Oscar for her performance in Black Swan, she's done a really good job being able to portray the full range of emotions, from sad, to happy, to sweet, to hot, to dangerous etc. I was really impressed. Inception got technical awards & Alice in wonderland for dress & cinematography. Others were good too. Really liked Kirk DOuglas on stage, he was fun & funny. All & all, a nice show!!

I didn't see the Raspberry Awards (Razzies) but heard that Manoj Night Shyamlan The Last Airbender lead the race with Sex & the City (which def deserved all the Razzies). M.Night is just suffering from over expectation. He's a nice smart guy & make good movies. I recently watched The Lady in the Water & found it quite interesting. I even liked The DEVIL. Every movie cannot be The Sixth Sense. C'mon guys, give him some space. Anyways, it's cool to see how they award for excellence & non-excellence too. LOL. That was the whole weekend and Monday today was "as usual". So until next time, Take Care & Be Happy... keep visiting/reading/commenting... Thanks & Jai Ho!!!!
