I am hoping and praying that somehow the Oscars go on. It seemed like something as big and revered as the Oscars would never get canceled, but it’s looking like it might actually happen. And while any year I would be sad about that, this year I’m especially sad. Why? For the first time in several years, perhaps since Shakespeare in Love, I’m VERY excited about a movie that’s up for several awrds, Juno.

This shouldn’t come as a surprise—I’ve made my feelings about this movie quite clear. And the fact that it’s up for Best Movie, Best Director (Jason Reitman), and Best Actress (Ellen Page) makes me very happy. And I want to see the show and hear what they have to say if they win.

Let’s hope the show goes on.
