Now of course the answer to the commercial was "terrorists get their money from you if you buy drugs", but still! Think the MasterCard people will be a little angry over that one?

I tuned in halfway through. What's up with the "Live from Hollywood and Times Square" thing? Is that where they've banished Donald Sutherland and Glenn Close?

Will that O show ever come in on time? Why don't they give up and make it four hours fercrisake?

Don't you know that propaganda is how we get people to come to our movie theaters? 95 percent of all movies NEVER fulfil the reported fantasies promised by movie trailers!

And come on now! Get on the bandwagon! Everyone do what they are told and we will all be safer for it!

Note: The previous tirade a proud production of my own beautiful mind.

Lovely theater though. But SHREK?? I hated that damn film. WHY OH WHY... rehashed and retold jokes that were as funny as "you can call me ray" just did not make me understand why people laughed at that damn thing.

Congrats to randy newman, for winning FINALLY, but for a crappy song.

So what will become of the Kodak Theater when not hosting Oscars? Will it show movies? How many subwoofers does it have?

Bob, you don't get it. The Kodak theater is in HOLLYWOOD! Not LA. HUGE difference here. Now that the Academy Awards ceremony is back in Hollywood again, movies will be much more gooder and the Academy Awards ceremony will be just that much more special.

I liked how they said "Live from Hollywood and Times Square". What happened from Times Square? Nothing!

I walked through Times Square yesterday, maybe they saw me.

The kodak Theatre has more subwoofers than you can count.

I really enjoyed seeing Whoopi Goldberg's descent from the ceiling
on a golden swing in her spoof of Moulin Rouge. Her beautiful, smiling face, her glittering costume with those outrageous feathers
making her look like a proud peacock, set a cheerful fun tone to the show. And her many costume changes, like the maid's Gosford Park bit,
gave a running gag to her parodies. The unnamed A.P. photographer captured a most memorable shot of Whoopi which appears on the front page of the NYTimes 3/25. Her circus entry called attention to the vastness and beauty of Kodak's new theater, and the antics of the Circ Du Soleil expanded on its stage capabilities.

For me the speech of Sidney Poitier gave another tone entirely--one of powerful dignity, as he summed up the history of recognition of blacks to the movies, culture and history of America and the world.
The film clips of his movies (nearly all of which I've seen or projected) showed the kinetic dynamism of his youth. His address on
receiving his honorary award had the seriousness of his maturity.
