Oscar Review: Awards As Bland As Oatmeal

Well don’t James Franco and Anne Hathaway look better now? Last year’s Oscar show may have been a headlong collision, but at least a crash has curiosity value. This year’s show was as lively and colorful as cold oatmeal. You know it’s a dull show when even the Best Dead People “In Memoriam” sequence is chilly, unemotional and flat.
Uggie Predicts the Oscars On Jimmy Kimmel Live (UPDATED)

Predicting the Oscars while sitting in New York is possible, but probably not the best way to guess – it’s like covering the Republican primaries through the media without ever setting foot in a caucus state. You can do it, but someone who has more contact with the locals may have an edge. So we might as well trust Uggie’s Oscar predictions. That silent-film but surely French-accented dog from The Artist has gone Hollywood for awards season, and has been predicting the Oscars every night this week on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

This could be the Red Carpet for people who hate The Red Carpet: Miss Piggy is the hostess for the BAFTA arrivals Sunday, asking the urgent questions about clothes, jewels, dates (“Who are you with, Georgie? Why not moi?”) and we can only guess what else.
Clooney vs. Dujardin: Can Subtlety Ever Win The Best Actor Oscar?

The Oscar for best Actor doesn't usually reward subtlety. Look at the past two years: Colin Firth won last time around for his stuttery role in The King’s Speech, while the year before his infinitely more nuanced and better performance in A Single Man lost to Jeff Bridges’ roaring drunk country singer in Crazy Heart. You get the picture: the Academy voters’ motto is We Love Big Gestures.

Brad Pitt knows he doesn’t have much of a chance to win the Oscar this year. He actually says so during this campaign stop on The Daily Show last night.
Glenn Close and Janet McTeer In Their Oscar-Nominated Albert Nobbs

Albert Nobbs is quietly affecting ... eventually. To get there, though, you have to be patient with its serious early problem: Glenn Close is completely unconvincing as a man, even as a small-boned chap referred to as “such a kind little man” by residents of the late-19th-century Dublin hotel where Albert Nobbs works as a waiter. Albert’s voice is so female, in fact, that we wonder whether everyone around her is simply playing along, winking and thinking, “Let her pretend to be a man if she wants.”

We could stretch it to more than four, but let’s stay focused. All ears, of course, will be on Ricky Gervais, as we wonder what he can possibly do to top his hilarious, irreverent turn as host last year. The first five minutes should tell.
But what other things should we be watching for on tonight's show? Here’s a short list:

The Academy has released its first promo for the reconstituted Oscar show, a spot in which Josh Duhamel and Megan Fox, with some help from Robin Williams, trek halfway across the world to find once-and-future host Billly Crystal.
