Monday Morning Distraction: Oscar Recap
As you are reading this (assuming today is Monday), I am traveling back to Indianapolis from Los Angeles. I didn’t go to the Oscars, but I was able to make it within two block of the Kodak Theater. For those of you who didn’t sit through two hours of red carpet interviews and then three hours of Hugh Jackman and company, here is a rundown of what happened. It has a list of who won which awards as well as some funny comments about things that happened. Looking back, my favorite moment was the guy thanking Mr. Roboto in Japanese. It reminded me of a certain video.
Here is a complete rundown of all the acceptance speeches:
