Jesse Walker thinks last night’s Oscars were the most watchable in years, partly because there wasn’t much of the traditional “witty banter” provided by the writers. Maybe he’s right, but frankly I was bored. That’s probably because I hadn’t but one or two of the nominated movies. There was a time when would’ve seen most all of them. But no more, either their movie selection is becoming more and more irrelevant, or I am.

UPDATE: Apparently, I misread Jesse Walker. He thought the Oscars were as boring as I did. Apologies.
