80th Oscars: Pre-Show
Regis is 1000 times better than the embarrassing idiot Chris Connelley (who compounds matters by thinking he's smart and hip) who hosted the ABC pre-show the last couple years.anonymous wrote:OscarGuy wrote:Is it me or is Regis more obnoxious than ever?
He's still 10x better than Billy Bush.

Hilary Swank totally "robot-ed" her way through the red carpet interview. She said the same thing like three times. A virtual automaton. Which is fine. I mean, her acting is great. She doesn't have to have a personality off-screen, I suppose.

At a ticket price nearly three times that of normal movies. It was a concert, not a movie, so it really shouldn't be counted. Yes. $61 million is a good deal of money and it's presently the third highest grossing film of the year, BUT it's still not a movie, has no place being at the Oscars and this is only February, so it will fall below the top 20 easily by the end of the year.

God, ya know, even on the red carpet Helen Mirren puts everyone to shame. "I'm playing the madam in a whorehouse in Nevada and I think a little bit of a character is rubbing off on me at the moment." Regis: "From a queen to a whorehouse". To which she replies, "Another kind of queen". She's just so fantastically witty, brilliant and classy.
