Waltz with BashirBritish Invasion

AaronOOF: “So excuse me while I pull out this speech I wrote for when I wouldn’t win…”
Bella2: Kate is nervous
DoubleKnitDynomite: The camera can't keep up with her magnanimous thanks

AaronOOF: Tom Wilkinson was very good as Ben Franklin
AaronOOF: John Adams will win everything it's up for
DoubleKnitDynomite: Alec Baldwin is going to move to Canada over this one

UncleJesse: Also, Alec Baldwin is wearing blush - no doubt about it
Bella2: Brits 2, Yanks 0

 

Sally Hawkins wins Best Actress in a Movie: Comedy or Musical for Happy-Go-Lucky

Bella2: Brits 3
DoubleKnitDynomite: Way to stick the winner in the back of the room. 20 minutes later she's on stage
Chafe: Also, she should eat something
CrackMC: She’s crying and breathless
Crystal: Was she this character in the movie?
CrackMC: No, she was happier

Waltz with BashirUnlikely Couples

CrackMC: LOVED! Colin and Brendan are my favorite onscreen couple of the year
AaronOOF: I'm confused... Were you trying to impress a guy by pretending to like it? Or were you trying to impress the guy by being drunkish?
UncleJesse: Little of both...
AaronOOF: So I still actually need to see In Bruges, sober, and not on a date with Uncle Jesse's boyfriend
DoubleKnitDynomite: Colin Farrell looks like Joe Isuzu

Crystal: To play a superhero—weight loss city for Seth
UncleJesse: He. Looks. Hot.
ManWithPowers: Wow, cocaine jokes? We are in a recession, people...
Bella2: Slightly inappropriate

 


 

Waltz with BashirUbiquitous Facial Hair

SnowPants: I like facial hair, but everyone is trying to have some tonight
UncleJesse: Perhaps there's some link between facial hair and recession....anyone??
FreshP: Too expensive to buy new razors?
Bella2: Men can't afford to shave

Waltz with BashirRumer Willis (as Miss Golden Globes)

Crystal: How do we feel about Rumer being Miss Golden Globes? And walking the carpet?
UncleJesse: I feel confused
AaronOOF: Rumer is too famous for this gig
Crystal: I thought you had to be un-famous
AaronOOF: I thought the Miss GG was supposed to be a fresh face, not yet working
UncleJesse: Agreed—but she's channeling Pat Field with that Kool-aid hair
DoubleKnitDynomite: Papa Ashton might be punking her
DoubleKnitDynomite: Does Rumer get to talk?
Bella2: No, she just hands awards over
DoubleKnitDynomite: Rumer is really showing some range

 

Bella2: Oh, this is where we meet Rumer
DoubleKnitDynomite: Rumer gets to nod!
AaronOOF: Why not also say, "Stepdaughter of Ashton Kutcher"
DoubleKnitDynomite: Ashton is ready to reveal the punk
Chafe: Demi looks younger than Rumer

 

DoubleKnitDynomite: I'm checking Rumer's credits to see what uniquely qualifies for her role in tonight's show.
AaronOOF: What do you mean? If anything, she has too many credits
UncleJesse: I think there's a height requirement too
DoubleKnitDynomite: Maybe her one-episode stint on CSI as "Mackendra Taylor"?
AaronOOF: The only qualification is 2nd generation actress who looks good in a dress
DoubleKnitDynomite: Because I don't think "Smoking Girl" in Whore alone would have done it
AaronOOF: Rumer was in a movie the Tribeca Film Festival showed this past year
DoubleKnitDynomite: Oh wait—got it. It was "Girl running between Jimmy and Oz" from The Whole Nine Yards
UncleJesse: I THOUGHT she looked familiar...

 

DoubleKnitDynomite: Did Demi have more work done? She looks amazing.
Smurfette: She corrected Rumer! Love it
Crystal: Demi looks younger then Rumer
FreshP: Whatever she's having (Ashton) I want some too
DoubleKnitDynomite: I bet she had Rumer just to have on hand as an organ farm
AaronOOF: Ashton will soon look older than she does

 

UncleJesse: Did Rumer leave?
