8/10
A Pretty Good Show (SPOILERS)

Yes, this happened over a year ago but I feel like commenting on the 78th Annual Academy Awards. To be honest, this is probably one of the best Academy Award shows ever. Jon Stewart made a pretty good host, and a lot of things that deserved to win did win. I knew as a fact that George Clooney was going to win Best Supporting Actor for Syriana, but probably the most controversial moment was when Crash beat Brokeback Mountain for Best Picture. Everyone was expecting Brokeback, being as it won pretty much every other reward, but then Crash won. I could care less of what movie won but I too was a bit shocked that Crash won. I guess it deserved it, though.

Like all the Academy Awards shows, here is the basis. There is a host, this year Jon Stewart, the host or a famous actor or actress or a filmmaker or a producer or a write present an award. I am not going to go over every single award like I did for my comment for 79th Annual Academy Awards but you get the point. Anyway, the show if supposed to be three hours long, but it always runs an hour longer. In the end somebody announces the greatest film of the year, or Best Picture, which went to, like I said before, Crash.

Overall, this is actually a nice year for the Academy Awards. I agreed with most of the choices for the winners, (which is rare, trust me), but some I was not quite certain about, like Crash. A lot of things happened in this Awards show that did not happen in a while. For example, all six important categories went to a different film, and the Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Supporting Actress awards all went to someone that was not nominated before, but I know all of you know that. Anyway, this is a fun Academy Awards show.

8/10
