Anti-Oscar

Pat and I decided that the best way to spend Oscars night was to go see a really horrible movie. Don't ask me why this makes sense -- my logic is excellent!
So we saw Ultraviolet. Yes it was that bad. But, it was bad in a way that was funny -- possibly even intentionally. It had some redeeming qualities: the tech in the movie was very interesting and I think worth sitting through all the bad. Anyways, it would have made the perfect video game plot: split into tiny cut sequences in between lots of fighting it wouldn't be that bad.
So how did them Oscars go?
Edit: I think I'm going to make this a regular holiday (much in the vein of Halloween in July). What better day to go see a movie than Oscars night? Guaranteed to be almost noone in the theater because a) the Oscars are on and b) its a sunday night. And I think it'll have to be a bad movie too. This is the part of the year when a lot of bad films come out.
I need a snazzy name though. Suggestions?
