Thoughts on the 2023 Oscars

Posted on March 14, 2023March 20, 2023 by Mikey

Here are just some of my thoughts on the Oscars:

The Red Carpet interviews are obnoxious. It’s just people asking how J-LO and these other people manage to look so good at their age. Well, they have nutritionists, home gyms, concierge doctors, money for touch-ups, personal trainers, time to cook healthy meals. So on.

When I was losing my hair, my mom told me not to worry because I would look like The Rock and Jason Statham. Watching them walk the red carpet was just like looking in a mirror!

The fact that “Nobody Like U” wasn’t nominated for best song is bullshit. I know that 4Town is a fictional band from Seeing Red, but still. Great song.

Also, why wasn’t the Raccoon that played Raccacoonie nominated?

I am SO happy that Guillermo Del Toro won. I haven’t seen all of the movies yet, but this movie was a labor of love, took about the same time as Avatar, and Del Toro is one of the best Directors and Producers today. I haven’t seen Puss in Boots 3 yet, and while it does look great and the reviews are stellar, I am glad that Pinnochio beat it out!

I am a big fan of Ariana DeBose. I like her headphone brand a lot.

Stephen Spielberg giving Ke Huy Quan a standing ovation and Harrison Ford presenting was just magical. Everything comes full circle. One could almost say, everything everywhere all at once comes full circle.

The crowdcheering for Jamie Lee Curtis. Her and her husband, Christopher Gust, adopted children. He is part of British royalty. Adopting children took him out of inheritance and he still did it. They are great people.

They just announced a freaky Friday sequel, so that will be the second Oscar for Jamie lee Curtis 

I didn’t care for women talking, but I also didn’t like the movie either 

As soon as Ke Huy Quan and Jamie Lee Curtis won, I felt ready for bed. 

Tar backwards is rat 🤯. I haven’t seen the movie so I don’t know if that means anything.

I forgot that Quest Love is an Oscar winner. Love that guy.

David Byrne is great. I saw him at Red Rocks. Go see him when you can. I also love his friendship with Maggie Rogers. He also directed one of her music videos.

The Daniel’s for Best Original Screenplay

I didn’t get to see all of the Oscar-nominated films, but I am really rooting for the indie film about the Chinese American immigrant who is about to lose her business, has been served divorce papers by her husband, and is trying to come to terms with her daughter who has recently come out. Oh, and there’s also multiverses and hot dog fingers!
