dewlineI'm "hearing" some appalling things tonight about how it was handled. Many of which simply affirmed my sense that watching Republic of Doyle's latest installment instead - as is my normal Sunday night practice - was the best choice.
Then, I read this particular appalling thing:

That's just bloody rude, that kind of interruption. And the context makes it worse.
Speaking as someone who studied animation, who enjoys film and TV in a general sense, who appreciates the work that VFX houses do to make the stuff I watch that much more enjoyable. This was just Rude and Wrong.
And something troubles me now. It's this question: Should I have watched the Awards Show, at least to bear some kind of witness?
