Oscar Contest Results-O-Rama!

Did you watch the Oscar awards on Sunday?  The whole show?  And you managed to stay awake?!  AMAZING!!  You deserve an award.  But too bad!  There’s only one award that we’re handing out today… the award for the 2nd Annual Cocky & Rude Oscar Contest!  This year’s winner correctly predicted 20 of the 24 Academy Award categories.  AND NOW … without further ado … (after all, why wait until the end of the post when the winner is someone who has never commented on C&R before?), the winner is: Bart Randall from Los Angeles, California!  Yippee!  Hurray!  Woohoo!!!  Congratulations!

Already in the mail and jetting its way to California is an assortment of seven movie theater-style candies, two packs of microwave popcorn and a brand new DVD of Lindsay Lohan in Walt Disney’s Herbie Fully Loaded!  Wow, what a great prize!

So how did I tabulate the results?  In a giant messy spreadsheet!  Check it out!

Here’s the full roundup of the results:

My favorite two category results were Best Cinematography and Best Actor in a Supporting Role.  Why, you ask?

It’s because 100% of the people that entered the 2nd Annual Cocky & Rude Oscar Contest chose the Best Cinematography winner incorrectly.  You’re all dummies!  (And so am I!)  In the Best Supporting Actor category, nearly everyone picked the correct winner (which was Christopher Plummer for Beginners) — EXCEPT Tam and Polt.  Ha!  They stink!  Lolz!

Each year we invite contest participants to predict the Best and Worst Dressed Academy Award celebrity attendee.  Since these categories are subjective, they do not count towards final scores.

This Year’s Best Dressed Predictions:

Meryl Streep, Viola Davis and Michelle Williams all tied for Best Dressed with three votes each.  Emma Stone was next with two votes, and then everyone else tied with one vote each.

This Year’s Worst Dressed Predictions:

Meryl Streep won Worst Dressed with three votes.  Glenn Close, Michelle Williams, Rooney Mara and Sacha Baron Cohen tied for second place with two votes each.  Everyone else tied with one vote each.

Congratulations to Meryl Streep and Michelle Williams for being our (predicted) Best AND Worst Dressed celebrities!  And Congratulations to Bart Randall for winning the 2nd Annual Cocky & Rude Oscar Contest! So what did you think of this year’s Oscar Awards?  Any surprises?  Who was the best & worst dressed of the night?  What did you think of Jennifer Lopez’s nip, Angelina Jolie’s emaciated leg, Billy Crystal’s break out from the old folks home, and the rest of Sunday night’s silliness?  Any thoughts for next year?  Who should host?  Do you even care about the Oscars?  Let’s discuss in the comments!!

Movie Trailer Explosion!

If you’re anything like me, you looooove movies. Good ones, bad ones, in between ones. Show me a drama film, an action flick, sci-fi, horror, porno or just about anything else, and I’m happy. I’ll even watch a Sandra Bullock chick-flick as long as there’s a cute boy in it (like Ryan Reynolds!). Drop me into a freezing dark theater with a few friends or family members and I’m happy. Stick some duct tape over the mouths of everyone else in the theater and ask them to stop crunching their damn popcorn and nacho chips so loudly and I’m ecstatic. Ban cell phones from the theater and I’ll splooge a mess of happiness all over the place.

Eww. How did I get to that point? Seriously, it’s like every time I start to babble, it always ends with semen, feces or fisting. Gross!

So anyway! The second best thing about going to the movies? The movie trailers! But what about when those trailers just look TERRIBLE? Take the next two trailers, for example. Who thought it was a good idea to make a Yogi Bear movie? Yogi wasn’t even that good when he was a cartoon … and Tom Cavanagh! What have you sunk to? You were great in Ed! Why can’t you land a better gig than this?

Next up we have another movie that should never have been made: Titanic II!  When we last left the Titanic, that giant mess of CGI had sunken to the bottom of the ocean, Leo died (oops, spoiler alert…), and Kate turned all old and wrinkly.  But 100 years after the first maritime disaster, the Titanic II is setting sail.  It’s staffed with a bunch of F-list actors and shitty special effects  … can’t wait!

And then sometimes Hollywood gets it right.  I’m talking about Sucker Punch. It’s directed by the porno director of Watchmen and 300, Zach Snyder and stars Vanessa Hudgens, Jena Malone, Jon Hamm, among others.  I have no idea what it’s really about, where it takes place, or what the fuck is going on, but I know this:  It looks eff’n amazing.  Check it out:

And then there are the trailers that you don’t see in the theater.  You’re sitting at your computer late at night, surfing YouTube (cuz porn gets boring after a while) and you come across a video like Jane Austin Fight Club.  This is a movie that SHOULD get made.  Forget Yogi Bear, forget Titanic II.  Throw Robert Rodriguez or Quentin Tarantino into the director’s chair and watch the magic happen.

So would you watch a Jane Austin Fight Club movie?  Or does Yogi Bear or Titanic II float your boat?  What about Sucker Punch?  Or are you looking forward to another upcoming flick?  Munch (quietly!) on some popcorn and leave a comment!
