OSCAR WATCH 2011: The Hostesses With The Mostestes

It's that time of year again! And no I'm not talking about the time of year that elicits 8 white plastic trees, a 6-foot menorah and various twinkle lights in my office lobby (sorry kiddies Santa doesn't exist, and I'm a Scrooge.) However, one thing I won't say Bah Humbug to is my second favorite season of the year, Oscar Season! Yes, Oscar season has officially begun with the announcement of the hosts. That's two this year, congratulations to James Franco and Anne Hathaway two very young, very beautiful, very skilled actors who will both probably be nominated for their performances in 127 Hours and Love and Other Drugs respectfully, but probably not win. Here's the official statement from Oscar peeps:
James Franco and Anne Hathaway personify the next generation of Hollywood icons— fresh, exciting and multi-talented. We hope to create an Oscar broadcast that will both showcase their incredible talents and entertain the world on February 27. We are completely thrilled that James and Anne will be joining forces with our brilliant creative team to do just that.
And so my dearies, while the snow piles up outside and you sit with your loved ones around a crackling fire, sipping cocoa I will be getting my $13 worth at my local movie theatre with the MissBleecker special aka buying a ticket for one movie and sneaking into several. Sorry Regal Movie Theatres but I have to see 10 movies which will be nominated for the 2011 Academy Awards and last year's endeavor of trying to watch them all over a weekend on my 13 inch computer was not much fun. But see them all I will and project the winners I will also, but talk like Yoda I will not (in future posts at least.) Last Oscars I did pretty damn good if you ungrateful bitches can't recall. So when the official list comes out and I force my eyes at a big screen for 12 hrs feasting on popcorn and Bunch-a-Crunch and then write a post so long and detailed you'd wish I hadn't, just know that it's all for you and not at all for the glory of gloating and being able to say on February 28th that I was right and you were wrong!
