IF YOU SHOW ME YOURS, I’LL SHOW YOU…MY BALLOT…
I SHOWED YOU MINE, NOW YOU SHOW ME…YOUR BALLOT…
I never get all 23 categories, but I always get the top eight, but thanks to Emma Stone, that reign has ended.
Best Leading Actress was the closest race this year, no one really knew who was going to get it because Stone, and Lily Gladstone were neck and neck until the last minute.
But I base my predictions on other predictions and the odds in Las Vegas, yes you can vote on the Oscars in Las Vegas, someone lost on that category big time last night, just saying…
As for the technical awards, I always go with the “who will win” in the predictions rather than the “should win” predictions, which have won the last few years over who the predictions are to win. Never again. If they say they should win not that they will win, I’m going with that prediction next year…
So I won some, I lost some, but that’s what makes it fun and exciting from my couch, and I’ve been doing this since I was a kid. That’s how long I’ve been watching the Oscars. So next year I’ll try again and shoot for Michael Jordan, 23 and see where I land at the end of the awards…
Congratulations to all the winners! And see you next year at the Oscars!

MY TOP TEN OSCAR MOMENTS…
With this year’s Academy Awards just days away, it’s time to relive some of my favorite Oscar moments from its 96 years! While there are so many moments to choose from, I picked the moments from the Oscar ceremonies over the years that live rent free in my head, these are the moments I best remember and often look back on and rewatch them. A lot of the moments remembered are from my younger years watching the Academy Awards, but that is how I know these are My Top Ten Oscar Moments, because I have remembered them all this time and never forget these Oscar Sunday memories!
SLAP HEARD AROUND THE WORLD…
A SLAPPED SOCIETY…
With the slap heard around the world, I have written a new blog post taking a deeper look at the past controversies of the Oscars. In particular, the incident that occurred at the 45th Academy Awards between John Wayne, Marlon Brando and Sacheen Littlefeather surrounding Brando’s refusal of his Oscar on behalf of Native Americans. Head over to my Blog Posts and have a read!
MR. SATURDAY NIGHT WORKED SUNDAY’S…
With the recent Bob Costas interview with Billy Crystal, and the incident at the 2022 Oscars, I’ve decided to take a look at the hosts in Oscar’s long history. More specifically. Billy Crystal. I will also discuss the past shows he hosted with some video memories. We will look at Billy’s first show in 1990 and presumably, his last show in 2012. I will look at the incident that may have cost him the hosting gig, if it wasn’t simply about a change of the guard and the younger, the better.
