Insider blind spots

I've never watched an award show, nor have I really paid attention to who has won awards on these shows, but tonight I asked Google News how many Oscars Hugo just won. (It turns out the answer is five.) I did this because, back in December, I actually saw Hugo, and I was... a weird mix of underwhelmed and perplexed. ( And here is a long post about it, surely longer than is warranted. )

Wow, what a ridiculous first post of the new year. And what a ridiculously long time it's taken me to get around to posting something. Hello, 2012!
