2) Anthony LaPaglia's wife is a babe

3) Sex in the City chicks - but for Kristen - look like a bunch of old wombats. And since I can never say enough bad things about SJP, I'd like to point out she is developing turkey arms

4) Christina Ricci put on the weight again and looked great. Renee Zellwiger looked great in her face - but my god - that junk in the trunk

9) Charlize - well, hey. I told all of you.
If I had a man-crush, I think Anthony LaPaglia would be it. His accent is wicked cool. He's so great on that show, and seems like such a mench.

Disagree about Cynthia Nixon; I think she looks good with the long hair.

Renee Zellweger clearly has pictures of the Hollywood Foreign Press in compromising situations with unwilling farm animals. What's this, her fourth GG? Someone will soon wake up and realize that the lollipop head has no clothes. In fairness though, she's put on the weight for the Bridget Jones sequel.

And yes, you're 100,000% right about Charlize. She's the undisputed #1.

edited to add: I also though that Mary-Louise Parker looked fantastic, and her joke about her boobs was pretty funny (she thanked her infant son for how good they looked in her dress). Not sure what Crudup was thinking: Claire Danes has nothing on Ms. Parker.
What would Judith Martin say about a guy leaving his 8.5-month-pregnant (and a great actress, and smoking hot) girlfriend?

She would say: "I would cut off his bird and feed it to him with some fava beans and a nice chianti."

I don't care if she is a huge bitch and a head care. Leaving someone when she is 8.5 mos. pregnant sucks.

As for Mary-Louise Parker, if your tits can look like that after giving birth, breastfeeding, and having Billy Crudup dump you, wowza. But I don't think she's smoking hot. She has that annoying voice and snarly mouth.

That he might have tried to discern whether their relationship had issues before he knocked her up; and that we ought not to talk about it.

Fortunately, I prefer the "if you don't have something nice to say, say it to me" approach.

Whatserface from Will and Grace has mightily improved from pregnancy also; she has lost the internment-camp skeletor thing she had going below her collarbone, and she has breasts now.

I'm happy to arrange for all of the above for you. You'll have to talk to Shape Shifter about booking Crudup for the coup de grace, though.

And people say it all the time about De Niro & Pacino...HOO AAHH!...but these guys aren't as bad as Mel Gibson, who not only plays the same character in every movie, but does so while not changing the theme of his movies:

(1) Mel is good. Sometimes a little mentally disturbed. But good. See Braveheart, Lethal Weapons, The Patriot, Ransom, etc.

(2) Something bad happens to Mel, i.e., his wife/girlfriend gets killed or son gets kidnapped, etc. It's usually family related.

(3) Mel goes completely insane. Or he goes MORE insane (insaner).

(4) Mel kills everyone who has wronged him. And them some.

(5) All is good in Melville. Except for Braveheart, where his body parts were placed on spikes. Minor disembowelment. Fortunately, Scotland is free.

Scarlett Johansson was wearing her breasts as earrings--who told her that would look good?

Jennifer Lopez had a great dress, but her skin tone is just too orange to wear that color--talk about monochrome.

Cate Blanchett--now this is how a pregnant star should look. What a fantastic dress, in a fantastic color.

Diane Keaton's speech was really cute--shows the benefit of actually writing the whole thing down when you can actually think it out (Meryl Streep was the one who talked about the two not worst things in America).

Renee Zellweger looks like someone attached a bicycle pump to her belly button and inflated her. I do like her with a little more meat on her bones, but she looks like she might pop.

Jennifer Aniston dressed up for once, and looked very nice.

Michael Douglas has reached his plastic surgery limit. Any more and he's going to look freakish.

Sharon Stone needs to hire a stylist. This dressing herself stuff has got to stop--the blacks of her top and skirt did not match.

Susan Sarandon knows the right colors to wear--deep and rich.

Sofia Coppola was wearing a safe dress, but dumb shoes--flats that made her legs look like Olive Oyl's.

Loved Pierce Brosnan's luxurious lilac shirt and tie.

Loved Ellen Burstyn's orange and gold ensemble--she just looks great in intense color.

Peter Jackson may be a genius, but he needs some serious fashion help. The worst part was the see-through shirt that didnt' fit in the neck.

AG and PJ, you have thwarted me in my attempts to edit. Damn you! Damn you all to hell!

Eh, not really. But Atticus, I have to say that your Miss Manners sex fantasy was about the most unerotic thing I have ever read on this board. Stop it.

She was on Letterman or Leno some weeks ago pushing her stupid movie with Keanu.
When asked why she wears the gloves, she stated that she had a "germ thing" (read OCD) and that she would wear them 24/7 if not for the movies. Said she takes a lot of crap for it at home (doesn't she live alone?), but she says, "whatever."

An Oscar-worthy performance:

Absolutely.

My thoughts on last night:


1. Glad to see local hero Bill Murray win. After seeing Lost in Translation, I take back everything bad I ever said about Sofia Coppola. On the condition that she NEVER, EVER attempts to act again. (Out a week from Tues. on DVD).

2. Equally glad that Tim Robbins didn't spew his usual political crap when he won. He's a tremendous actor, but personally I lose a little respect for any actor who spouts off like he usually does.

3. Charlize. Wow.

4. Meryl Streep and Al Pacino are fine actors with great bodies of work, but is it just me or are they in that realm now where they are winning unofficial Lifetime Achievement Awards every time they get nominated? Whether they are any good in a role or not, good luck if they are nominated in your category...

5. Diane Keaton's kind of freaky. The whole glove thing, I wonder is she doesn't have some kind of phobia or something because she is rarely seen without them.

6. I never thought I'd say this, but Nicole Kidman didn't look very good last night. Usually she's a can't miss to look stylish and tasteful.

Apprently he wore two shirts during the shooting of LOTR. Every other day he wore the other one.

Two.

I think it's great that he doesn't give a fuck.

I like his crack about actually turning into a hobbit during the making of the movie. I take that to mean, then, that he has not always resembled a troll?

I agree that this is what is going on with her hideous clothes, but maintain that it is so bad as to require sarcastic air quotes: her "trademark look."

BR(Not being able to get over the Annie Hall thing might explain all the unflattering suit-jacket based stuff and the "one kooky accessory" thing)C

edited to add: mental illness might explain it too, yes.
