Highlights of the 85th OSCARS

1. Seth Macfarlane set his standard of bringing a different brand new kind of hosting the 85th Oscars Awards Night. Hopefully it would be remembered that he was talking to real human beings.

2. The stage is more theaterical spectacular, used of  illuminated symbols in  pinwheels with more lighting effects and beautiful stylish design, more sophisticated and elaborately costly compared to the stage at the Emmy's and Golden Globes.

3. Long presentation of the James Bond 007 tribute filled the whole stage plus the themesong of each every James Bond movies were played then lastly Shirley Bassey's rendition of "Goldfinger" is great. Unforgettable!

4. Speeches by each winning actors and actresses are to be remembered for many years of the way it was delivered. Anne Hathaway (for Les Miserables) beaming with beauty and pride on her pale satin peachy baby pink shades of night gown which is awesome. What her speech about? About her dream and wish coming true in real life? Daniel Day Lewis' (for Lincoln) speech about Meryl Streep whom he wants the role of Margaret Thatcher. Ben Affleck  (Argo)for his out of job depression landed him on being a director and a producer and almost about to cry while George Clooney looked on smilingly like a pro, while Jennifer Lawrence (for Silverlining's Playbook) will be remembered from stumbling through the stairs which she said was embarrasing. Her "poise on the stairs may land her on Victoria's Secret "Moonlight." She's that fortunate to win the Oscars at a very young age. When there are so many older actresses who would like to be in her shoes.Tarantino's speech about writers will set the standard for there are so many gifted writers in our time.

5. Life of Pi won for its culture, race and religion theme. Dunno really what they win for what category. But I know it's a good movie.

6. It was supposedly Jack Nicholson who will announce the winner for Best Picture then suddenly a shooting star appeared above the stage and then Mrs. Michelle Obama, the US First lady had the honor to announce that it was "Argo" the winner of Oscars Best Picture.

7. Now who's who are the best in gowns and tuxedo? Coat and tie?
