Description

With the writer's strike now officially over, as we all breathed a big sigh of relief and joy, we
also celebrated the fact that the 80th Academy Awards(R) ceremony will go on in its usual splashy
fashion.

And GreenCine.com will be there (virtually) next Sunday, February 24th, to cover it in a cheeky Live Blogging event. Thanks to the folks at Cover It Live, GreenCine will host an online commentary throughout the Academy Awards ceremony, moderated by GC editor Craig Phillips [http://underdog.typepad.com], and an army of film bloggers including Erin Donovan (http://steadydietoffilm.typepad.com), Agnes Varnum (http://agnesvarnum.com/), Stacie Ponder (http://finalgirl.blogspot.com/), Vince Keenan (http://www.vincekeenan.com), and numerous other witty film bloggers. Special guests include... you! And a host of other cinephile goofballs from all over the world along for the ride.

We take film seriously so we'll be taking the awards seriously - but only up to a point; if you
can't make snarky comments at the Oscars, when can you?

We'll also be giving away an Oscar-nominated film on DVD as well as a free one month GreenCine membership, so tell your friends!

GreenCine's editors and writers have years of experience writing about film online, via our award-
winning, ever-popular film blog GreenCine Daily, with our oft-quoted primers and interviews, and
in our numerous DVD reviews. Together, we've helped put together one of the premier sites for film
lovers everywhere, and with our highly-regarded DVD rent-by-mail service, GreenCine has become a place for cinephiles to get their hands on an incredible array of films, new and old, international and American, all the while being part of a fabulous film community.

Our Live Blogging of the Oscars continues that tradition while adding the excitement and immediacy
of a live event.

Our commentary. Your comments. Trivia questions. Polls, pictures and punditry. All this and it's
free. Jump in, jump out, jump back in again when you just can't believe Daniel Day Lewis actually
said *that.*

The Oscars are fun, but let's face it, they need friends around to add running commentary.
Consider us your virtual friends for the evening, tux and gown optional.
