Yessss... Gervais is already drinking and insulting every possible actor with a target on their back. Splendid.
YEEESSSS! A Mel Gibson joke in the opening segment!!!! I called it. Also some pretty uncomfortable jokes about Hugh Hefner's marriage (omg he's dry heaving on stage... you can't make this stuff up), Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes seemingly fake marriage, and how crappy the comedy nominations are (I'm talking to you, Tourist). He's getting a lot of boo's already. He wasn't joking when he said he'd make sure he was never offered the host job again.
Scarlett Johansson presents supporting actor drama for film. Her dress is awesome. Her hair is not. She looks like Bridget Jones in that scene where she loses her scarf in the convertible. Windswept! Nominations are Christian Bale, Michael Douglas, Andrew Garfield, Jeremy Renner, and Geoffrey Rush. Christian Bale wins, and might already be drunk based on how long he rambles on, but accepts graciously... which is a welcome change considering his general hatred of both the press and Hollywood. He also got the cue music, which surprises me because I would be scared of him if I were the program directors.
Now up is supporting actress in a drama for television. Presented by LL Cool J and some chick whose name I can never remember. Katey Sagal wins for Sons of Anarchy, and she's pretty stoked because let's be honest... the only thing she's really been known for so far is her role as Peggy Bundy on Married With Children. No way she was ever going to win something for that show--not that it wasn't great but, you know, it's not exactly the king of show loved by the Hollywood Foreign Press, youknowwhatimean?? She looks really nice in some sort of shiny orange number. She got the music really soon. I think Christian Bale used it up already.
Best mini-series or TV movie is up next, presented by Kevin Spacey and Julianne Moore. Nominees are Pillars of the Earth, Temple Grandin, The Pacific, You Don't Know Jack, and Carlos. Carlos wins. Did I just see Tom Hanks swearing that his baby, The Pacific, didn't win? Maybe. I sure hope this is short because, well, no one has heard of these movie makers or this movie/series. Not that what they're saying doesn't matter... it just doesn't matter because we don't know them.
Bruce Willis presenting the clip for RED, which is nominated for Best Motion Picture Comedy. Meh.
The Country Strong teenyboppers (Leighton Meester and Gabe whatshisbutt from Troy/Country Strong/Tron Legacy) are presenting Supporting Actor in TV Series, Mini Series or Motion Picture Made for Television. Nominees are Chris Noth (Good Wife) ....... and some other guys because HOLY CRAP Chris Colfer wins for Glee. Gives the assumed speech about bullying. He was just as surprised as the rest of us.
Break!
