The 80th Oscars: Whoop De Doo

I watched the Oscars tonight. Didn't have much of a choice with my Mom here. Is it just me, or are these Hollywood "glitterati" more irrelevant than ever? There was so much self importance in the room, yet so little importance in the real world. I realize that the masses, whose lives seem to revolve around Britney Spears, will be absolutely enthralled with this show but beyond those IQ/Life challenged folks, is there any real interest anymore?
