I seriously don't get why everyone is so worked up over the FLOTUS showing up on the Oscars.
She has no business presenting the most prestigious award in the business. I would say the same thing is Laura Bush presented it.
What makes people really mad though is the fact that the Academy would have never asked Laura to do that.

Two POTUS (FDR and Reagan) also spoke at past Oscars (they didn't present, but this wasn't groundbreaking either).

I try to stay away but I just can't.
DDL was the odds on favorite to win the Oscar from the moment he was cast, regardless of Weebies citations of a couple of loser blogs. Day-Lewis won the Broadcast Film Critics Award (largest critics association in the U.S. and Canada), the BAFTA, Golden Globe and other substantial recognition for his performance prior to winning the Oscar. I know of no truly knowledgeable and credible observer/writer/oddsmaker that didn't have him as the odds on favorite. A lot of people lauded Phoenix's performance, and rightly so. But this was Day-Lewis' year.
The Master had three outstanding performances in a dreadfully unsuccessful mess of a movie.
I also continue to be amazed at the overstating of the "agenda" in Hollywood. The "agenda" is primarily money, not politics.
And the butthurt some people have over Michelle Obama is laughably pathetic. WTF?
