oscars.

Posted on by

if you watched, didn’t watch, or sort of watched off and on

the oscars/academy awards aired last night.

i’m a huge fan of films of all kinds

and I thought

if they were really made out of chocolate

 if I were to ever win an oscar

it might be a very fleeting moment of fame for me

a challenge for the paparazzi 

as it would no longer exist after a few minutes

i’m a huge fan of chocolate of all kinds as well

but every nibble so worth it.

here is the only Oscar to have ever won an Oscar

Oscar Hammerstein II for his song, 

‘The Last Time I Saw Paris,’ in the movie, ‘Lady Be Good’ in 1941

‘there’s a lot of great movies that have won the Academy Award,

and a lot movies that haven’t.

you just do the best you can.

      • Yes, it is what we are interested in. I never heard of Conan and that might be why I didn’t understand his jokes. I used to watch years ago. I put up watching soccer games because my husband grew up playing and loves watching. :)

  3. I haven’t watched The Oscars for a very long time now. The time difference doesn’t help, and I have rarely been able to see any of the nominated films. But chocolate statuettes is a great idea!
    Best wishes, Pete.

    • and there’s generally a highlight reel if interested, and I often don’t make it through the whole show it can certainly get long and dragged out, but yes, glad you’re onboard with the chocolate version.

  9. That would certainly be a sustainable way to host the Awards!

    I stayed up till the end, shockingly, this year. Glad for all the winners although I felt bad Demi Moore lost at the final stretch when she’s done so well all season.

    • I didn’t make it to the end, though I tried and I would have loved for her to win. I am happy the smaller films has some big wins and also was rooting for Demi. yes, to the sustainability of the chocolate awards –

  20. I watched the Oscars off and on. Mostly because I wanted to hear if any “statements” were made and some were. Also to see the dresses. I haven’t been to a movie since I walked out of one in 2019. But after watching the awards ceremony, there are a few movies in the new group that I’d like to see. Which would you recommend?

    • I haven’t seen many of the winners, but Conclave and Flow and Elimia Perez all look great. Also the Nickel Boys is supposed to be very good. I saw A Complete Unknown, about the early Bob Dylan days and it was very well done.

  22. I was invited for dinner at my son’s and competely forget it was on! And this time, I actually had seen some of the nominees! Oh well. Next year.

    But I’m with you, a chocolate trophy would be oh so nice!
