Its Oscar night!!! I know the show is too long. I know the jokes aren't funny. I know its pretentious, boring and over the top drivel that is only around so that Hollywood can feel even better about itself. I know all of this and I still adore it so. I am a sucker for a good show of pomp and circumstance and pageantry, half the reason I like musicals so much. Its just *BAM* in your face style and very little substance sometimes. I usually get very very excited for Oscar night. Its just something to look forward to in a month with very few events on the calendar.
This year I am a little indifferent about the show. I think this is the year when I have seen waayy less than half the films nominated. Since money hasn't been coming in like normal I have had to be choosey on what I see and where. The last time I went in 2011 was to see "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol". An awesome movie but I dont even think its nominated for technical achievements. The film I saw before that was "Drive". When I saw it i dont think anyone in the theater was really ready for what it ended up being. I loved it from the first frame. It seems it a took a little while to catch on though. I've seen many tweets with people praising it. Check it out. Even the animated films this year I wasn't too thrilled with. I am looking forward to seeing "Brave" this year and hopefully that will take home the prize golden man next year.
By now you are probably saying, how does all this relate to your blog Diggy? Well I shall tell you. or better yet show you. So please enjoy these semi themed pics and share your thoughts and comments on them and movies if you like.
So these first few I was just going with sexy. i think they pretty much show off different variations on it.
Now we get to tying this whole posting together. Being that its an award show i went with a glam angle.
Here is another slight connection to the movie rant above. I used a pic of Christina Hendricks as reference for this. She of course was in....'Drive". Thats right. very good everyone.
These two ladies show that off really well i think.
You cant have a movie post with babes without posting something that features one of the most recognized movie babes ever. Not exact but a little Marilyn Monroe for you ya. Okay not so little, but you get it.
Finally we end with a couple ladies very very happy to be holding a small golden man.
I wont lie. I wouldnt mind getting my hands on that fella either. But as they say "Dream on silly dreamer."
Thanks for coming everybody. Hope you enjoy the show.
