As everyone knows, this year’s Oscars took place last night. I didn’t watch it, because, as with all Hollywood award shows, the movies nominated are movies that the average Joe doesn’t watch. Plus it was interrupting with my Family Guy, you know I couldn’t have that. Good thing too, as Ellen DeGeneres was the host, and frankly I don’t find her funny. Her humour is too bland and white bread for me. But today a shocking and welcome bit of news reached my ears, SCORSESE WON! I almost cried. I’ve been rooting for the guy for so much years. He’s made excellent, mostly gritty movies. Wonder if that why Hollywood didn’t recognize him? Because he made “real” movies and not any artsy-fartsy, touchy-feely crap that usually wins. The guy has been trying for 25 years, upstaged by actor-turned-directors, and worst of all, Three 6 Mafia. Ouch!

Most men would’ve been broken by now, but Scorsese pushed on, and finally won For The Departed, which won four Oscars. The award was presented to him by Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, proof that Hollywood has really accepted him. Apart from that, there was the usual. Political diatribes, celeb sightings, “fans” eager to get autographs to sell on EBay, extravagant parties and the brutal criticism of high-class fashionistas. So what will Scorsese do with his Oscar? Maybe he’ll stroke his phallic prize continuously in a very creepy fashion, or hunt down Three 6 Mafia and beat them for the indignity he suffered? The latter would make an intersting read. Enjoy your victory Scorsese! You deserve it!
