Oscars: Slumdog Millionaire Wins (Yay), Also Sean Penn (Boo)
Oh Oscars, how could you? Up in chihuahua heaven, little Loki Rourke is in floods. Floods. Are you happy now? You'd better be. Because, even though he's won every single other award on the face of the Earth for The Wrestler, the Oscars have just decided to snub Mickey Rourke and give the Best Actor trophy to Sean Penn. Honestly Oscars, when Mickey Rourke goes off the rails again and ends up starring in Sylvester Stallone's Get Carter 2, the blood will be on your hands. Also, Slumdog Millionaire won a bunch of Oscars, which is a great surprise to... oh, nobody.
Jennifer Aniston & Angelina Jolie: The Oscars Punch-Up, Sunday
It took a while, but we've finally found a reason to watch the Oscars - it involves Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie. And sheer, unstoppable violence. After years of false starts and meticulously choreographed social planning, the Long-Awaited, Breathlessly-Anticipated And Borderline-Erotic Jennifer Aniston/ Angelina Jolie Catfight is due to take place at this Sunday's Oscars. What'll happen when Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie finally meet? We're guessing either a) a full-on, bloody-nosed, hair-pulling fistfight, b) some sort of awkwardly curt nodded acknowledgement of one another or c) lesbian kissing. We know we speak for all men when we say: Woohoo! Go b)!
Top 5 Oddest Ways Hollywood Stars Prepare For Oscars Night
It really is simply ridiculous the lengths that Hollywood actresses will go to impress on Oscars night. A beautiful gown can only distract from the wrinkly face and bloated thighs for so long, which means Hollywood's elite have to pull out all the stops in their search for physical perfection. Of course, they will spend endless hours in the gym and getting poison injected into their faces in the build-up to the big night. But there are some actresses who are prepared to go that extra step.
Oscars: Everyone Knows Who’ll Win Everything Already
Spoiler alert: if you don't want your Oscar night feast of bad dresses and unbearable smugness ruined, stop reading. Also, if you don't care about the Oscars, stop reading. So that should leave us with only people who sort of like the Oscars a bit but they're not women or gay or anything. Welcome aboard, tiny remaining audience. Excuse our preamble, because we're about to tell you who'll win all the Oscars. We mean it - bookies say they've never been more convinced. Slumdog Millionaire, by the way. There, that's saved you about four hours of your life. Spend it wisely.
Who’s Presenting The Oscars? It’s A Massively Pointless Secret
Are you looking forward to the Oscars on Sunday? No. No, of course you're not. Nobody is. It's OK. Nobody is. Just don't tell the Oscars organisers. They're absolutely murdering themselves trying to get even a flicker of Oscars-related interest from the populous at large and, it's fair to say, they're failing spectacularly. But the Oscar people have got an ingenious joker up their sleeves - they're keeping the award presenters secret until the ceremony itself. Incredible! But here's a warning - if the awards aren't presented by Elvis, Jesus and a dancing troupe of exploding nuns, we'll be sorely effed off.
Slumdog Millionaire Wins All The BAFTAs. All Of Them.
If you believe that the BAFTAs act as a bellweather for the Oscars, then Slumdog Millionaire will win all the Oscars. Also, the Oscars are going to be really bloody drizzly. Because that happened at the BAFTAs too. But anyway, Slumdog Millionaire was the big winner at last night's BAFTA awards, scooping Best Film, Best Director, Best Music, Best Cinematography, Best Editing and Best Adapted Screenplay. Why? Because it's principally British? No. Well, yes. A bit. But Slumdog Millionaire wasn't the only thing to leave the BAFTAs with anything. We left with the onset of trenchfoot. Eat that, Dev Patel.
Oscars: Jennifer Aniston Wants To Rub Angelina’s Nose In It
Since there's no Rubbish Lowbrow Dog Movie category, you might think that Jennifer Aniston doesn't care about the Oscars. But you'd be completely wrong. Jennifer Aniston does care about the Oscars. She cares about the Oscars so much that she's going to present an award at this year's ceremony. Why? Is it because Jennifer Aniston is a dedicated student of acting who wants to help recognise excellence in filmmaking? No, it's because Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will be there and Jennifer Aniston wants to swan about in a little dress in front of them, cackling like a witch. Obviously.
LA Film People Say WALL-E Is Quite Good
Do you want the good news or the bad news first? Well, tough, you're getting the bad news - it's awards season. You know, that long, slow, dull deathmarch to the Oscars where every single vaguely filmy organisation on the face of the planet announces which movies it enjoyed watching most. But more than that, awards season marks the time of year when we wish we had another job. Any other job. A job involving heights and spikes and angry bears, even. And now the good news - The Los Angeles Film Critics Association gave its best picture award to WALL-E.
