Ill-Advised Oscar 2012 MOBILE Live-Tweetery!

Go forth, fellow Oscar-watchers, and read them! Read all of them!

Edit: Complete List of Winners and my Tweets, reposted for prosperity and for the benefit of anyone watching the Oscars on DVR (please excuse the wonky spelling):

* - My fearless prediction is that the Dictator thing will be the only spontaneous/interesting moment on the red carpet.

* - My other fearless prediction: "The Artist" wins all the things. Even though it was much better when it was animated and titled "The Illusionist"...

* - Methinks Nick Nolte's crows would consider him their pet human.

* - Also "Warrior" is excellent and you should see it. #BlatantOscarSnubs

* - God, there's another 1/2 hour of this? Get to the part about movies winning things!

* - (Plays with her Audubon Guide to New England app. LOL random animal sounds.)

* - When are they going to stop talking about clothes already???

* - Not that I am in any position to talk, but Brian Grazer is an odd-looking man.

* - OTOH, I am digging Chris Rock's 'fro.

* - OMG almost time!

* - I still can't choose between Morgan Freeman or Sir David Attenborough for who should narrate my inner running monologues.

* - Random Bieber!!!

* - Should note that's the only part of "The Help" I've seen...

* - Glad to see "Hugo" get cinematography

* - And for best art direction! Hmmm...

* - Hell of a montage going right from "Titanic" to "Twilight". #WhyThisGenerationFails

* - Oscar-nominated Madonna movie. #Things80sComediansWouldPointOut

* - And a million Harry Potter fans cried out...

* - D'aww at Brad Pitt waxing nostalgic about a monster movie.

* - Welp. Good jarb offending all of China, Sandra Bullock.

* - The Oscar goes to the woman involved in the SECOND-best moment of scatological humor in the bunch!

* - OK, the Christopher Guest Gang focus group bit was hilarious.

* - And a win for Team Fincher!

* - The Oscar-nominated Transformers 3. #ThingsModernComediansWouldPointOut

* - Yay Hugo!!!

* - Cirque Du Soleil is all like, f--- you, we got your 3-D right here!

* - Meanwhile George Clooney 's date is all like "I'm not familiar with the kind of thing I'm seeing...?"

* - For reals, Cirque Du Soleil are amazing and anyone who disagrees can go right to hell.

* - Brace yourselves, here comes the intro to the Best Animated Film award...

* - D'awww Christopher Plummer

* - Yo, fellow Leo DiCaprio fans: let's school them little Twilight fans when Titanic 3D comes out.

* - And that's how you keep all the Muppet fans in suspense.

* - Though I have to say, with all the dancing birds, my 12-year old self would have gone nuts over Rio

* - Uggie was robbed!!! #BlatantOscarSnubs

* - This is as good a time to note that we are going to hear a LOT of interesting comments on Pharrell's house band.
