I have to Stay Up All Night to be the first commenter -- is the only way it will ever work.

I love (some of) the stuff coming out of the studio boutiques -- but.... do you think these movies are actually any good?

I thought it was Rose McGowan.

Any industry that gets together for four hours of unctuous, sycophantic bull shit is not worth watching.

@NotAndersonCooper: She has more tattoos. But seriously, its good when an "upstart" wins.

@PRIsNotJournalism: four hours doesn't seem like much compared to the amount of time spent here reading and writing unctuous, sycophantic bullshit.

there was a total aspergers moment when diablo cody takes that envelope from harrison ford and walks offstage.

she wouldn't even look at her oscar in fear of making eye contact with it.

I made this observation in the comments last night... but you could actually see Diablo Cody's tattoo quaking. There was nothing sexier except perhaps for Helen Mirren and her long list of sexy words.

"As Diablo, I dab in totes winning, like score score score, you dig that diggedy downlow? Aight. Seriously though. I'm gonna pop a big ole melodramatic boner if I ramble with the Con-Grats for too long. I'd like to thank those who keeps it reals and those keeps it not so reals as they keep me reals with their reversal image reflect-i-one. Ay there's the rub, homeslice. I'ma shuffle off this mortal Oscar coil now, aight? Peace."

She is dressed like Wilma Flintstone, which is fine.

@harvey_wallpaper: I think it was more that she had to use the envelope to shield her lady bits from the camera. Her dress was slit up to there; the Kentuckian commented that she looked like a sexy Betty Rubble.

I wish Marion had spoken in French. Just to confound everyone.

Wow, fresh and real and gorgeous.

Did anyone catch Marion's post-win interviews on E? "I am overwhelmed with joy and sparkles and fireworks."

For graciously and thankfully accepting this oscar from the Academy, instead of spitting and walking out, Cotillard's French citizenship was revoked and promptly disowned by French people everywhere.

@CodePink: Thank you for that. (Assuming you were ridiculing that terrible meth-addled-Gilmore Girls screenplay).

Does giving a French woman the Best Actress award mean that the War in Iraq is over?
What happened to Freedom Fries?

@JojoSaysNo: You're welcome. That's exactly what I was doing. I feel bad for making fun of a newcomer but I just thought that screenplay was like...sigh. Annoying!!!

@harvey_wallpaper: That's why the writer's award is my favorite moment. Writers are basically anti-social creatures so you can always count on them to say/do something that will make people uncomfortable.

So does Diablo Cody's Oscar win shield her from a reality show? I am thinking something along the lines of "Diablo Cody: My Life in the Fast, Easy and Dry-Hump Lane...and Oscar for Original Screenplay"

@El-Sonambulo: please, she could win the nobel prize or even be humously canonized and still couldn't be torn away from her own reality show.

When was the last time somebody said something good about LA? I guess she has been there for less than 48 hours.
