Jennifer Lawrence was so charming, INSPIRING, what with her falling, putting her foot in her mouth, wanting to meet Al Roker, falling on the steps as she made her way to accept her first Oscar.
Maybe a bit TOO CHARMING AND INSPIRING?
The Academy has made public it's concerns about the televised ceremony's drop in ratings. THEY WANT NEW BLOOD...YOUNG BLOOD, an influx of younger viewers. What better way to attain that than to take a young, wide-eyed girl, carefully shepherd her through a whirlwind career, tell her exactly what to say and do in her various appearances, then cap all that off by giving her an OSCAR!
Do you feel there is something strange about her meteoric rise to success?
Are the members of the Academy nothing more than a bunch of perverts who reward young starlets handsomely who act in provocative scenes depicting rape, etc.?
I'm sure her first lesbian scene is right around the corner...

Right! That's exactly how I feel. It's almost like I'm being force fed the idea that she's sooooooo great. Now this is pretty much true of Hollywood in general but the Oscars take the cake. I refuse to watch them anymore. When I was young it was so glamourous but the illusion quickly began to fade once I started to decide for myself who is truly a great actor/actress. We all know the Oscars are bought and paid for. All I have to say is Anthony Hopkins is my hero!

I don't know about all that but I think she did very well in Silver Linings Playbook. I think she's talented and could become even more successful in the future.

Personally I think the Academy Awards are nothing more than Hollywood ego stroking.

The whole thing is a joke, Kevin Smith tried to get Michael Parks nominated for his performance in Red State, but found out he would have to pay the Academy $250,000 just to campaign the film.

KS is a tool of a host that seriously needs to change his wardrobe...haha. Some good movies, but bad clothing decisions.

I never liked her. She seems very fake to me.
How many times is she gonna shove down our throat the fact that she's down to earth and loves to eat like the rest of us,etc.
No one cares!
