It started off with such promise. The Academy Awards, raising eyebrows among most of the general public, selected James Franco and Anne Hathaway to host the 83rd Annual Oscar awards. When they did this I assumed they had something up their sleeve, a bigger reason than just selecting two young stars to host their show thereby hoping to lower the average age demographic that watches their show. An effort to make the Oscars ‘young and hip’ if you will.
It’s that time friends – it’s finally Academy Award weekend! The stars have been arriving slowly but surely and LAX has been a hotspot for celebrity watchers. I am so sad to report that I have failed terribly in my Operation Oscar this year, having seen only 5 of the 10 movies nominated for Best Picture. Even worse the movie that I think will take home the golden statuette is one of the ones I haven’t seen!

The Academy Award nominations have been announced, which also signals the beginning of my very own ‘Operation Oscar’! Last year I made it my mission to watch as many of the nominated films and performances as I possibly could, and I did a pretty good job!
