Same as it ever was.
How did Denzel blow off his speech? I assume he was dressed properly because there were no threads about what he was wearing.

Posted: 6/14/10 at 3:33pmHe gave off an air that he was not happy to be there at all, showed zero personality, and forgot what the name of the American Theatre Wing.

Posted: 6/14/10 at 3:44pmThe Fanny Brice comment makes even less sense when in the context of the sentence it came from.

By not fulfilling expectations of which he was completely unaware.

I will say, though, that I wish I came up with this one:
"giving off the distinct death reek of a Chris Klein audition video"
Just thinking about that video makes me feel better bout myself.

Posted: 6/14/10 at 4:08pmI agree. That video does wonders for one's self esteem (unless you are Chris Klein). It's one of those "At least I'm not..." moments. I try to cling to such thoughts when I'm feeling self-conscious. Sort of like going to a dance club reminding myself that there will be at least ONE person who looks older/fatter/more pathetic than me. I do the same with water parks or the beach. If I enter with that state of mind, I can usually relax and have a good time knowing that even if I can't seem them, they are there. Somewhere.

Posted: 6/14/10 at 4:21pmI was just a bit "struck" by Denzel's forgetting The American Theater Wing. He is a professional and should have been able to easily come up with "I would like to thank the Tony voters". He has just come off with a lack of personality or caring. He has not been the usual smiling person he has been in the past. And, I will go there, his pants were too long!

I don't remember him smiling since the early 90s.
