And the Oscar goes to...
What are you looking forward to the most about this Sunday’s ceremonies?

The Oscars are this Sunday, who’s excited? I think this year might actually be an entertaining year to watch the Oscars. With close races in more than one category (including the Sean Penn/Mickey Rourke Best Actor deathmatch) and the potential for a few upsets (if ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ doesn’t win Best Picture) this year’s broadcast is one to watch.

Along with the close races, there’s always a good fashion faux pas to laugh at, a crazy award speech to puzzle over (Mickey Rourke is likely to thank his dogs again, including the recently deceased Loki), not to mention the performances for Best Song (last year’s rendition of “Falling Slowly” was absolutely amazing). Not to mention that my favorite “Twilight” hunk, Robert Pattinson, is going to be a presenter this year, swoon!

So what are you most looking forward to this year? Personally, it’s R-Patz in a tux and seeing ‘Slumdog’ win that excites me. I’ll also likely be glued to the pre-show fashion coverage — you just have to know who’s outfit to dog on Monday.
