I noticed they didn't add Brad Renfro in the dead people montage.

Did anyone notice John's Travolta's hair?

I can't believe Glen Hansard's won an oscar... that's fantastic great film (once) and great song and would have even beaten Ed were he there anywho

Jenny's none too happy though

No Country definitely was the best picture. Couldn't be happier with that call.

as far as best actor goes, daniel day lewis definitely deserved the oscar. as much as I enjoyed Depp in Sweeney Todd, DDL's performance in There Will Be Blood was absolutely staggering. It will go down in history as one of the best acting performances of all time, methinks.

I guess no one got my Gary Busey reference earlier.

In case you missed it, here's Busey gone wild:

Why wasn't "The Kite Runner" nominated for best film? Just saw "There will be blood" and I think i should have spent the 3 hours cleaning up my garage. :mad:

I never like the stuff she wears for the oscars... she always looks very harsh.

I don't think it's the stuff she wears. she doesn't look human anymore, she looks like a robot. she can't even move her face.

that's a good description. though i thought she looked better last night than she normally does at those events.

possibly, cos I found some old oscar pictures of her where she actually looked nice... I thought she was much prettier with her curly hair anyway.

Kate Winslett always looks fab though, found this old one... it's gorgeous.

I still haven't seen No Country, but so far, There Will Be Blood was my favorite film of the year. Daniel Day-Lewis was amazingly haunting in it, and the music gave me chills.

you're mixing a few things.

the stoner kid getting a chick pregnant is 'knocked up.' the actor is seth rogen and he is in 40 year old virgin, but he is NOT in arrested development. the actress in that movie is some blond chick.

the kid who gets the girl pregnant in juno is michael cera. he is the son in 'arrested development.' in the movie, he is not a stoner though, he is a runner. the girl is ellen page, the cute young brunette girl the camera panned to so often tonight.

did you see juno? i think perhaps the stoner you are thinking of might be... you

The fact that you took time to explain all that is awesome.

I enjoyed There will be Blood. It is kind of a character study. Daniel Day Lewis is awesome and makes the movie.

That said No Country for Old Men was by far the best film i saw all year.

I have no doubt Daniel Day-Lewis deserved his oscar, he is amazing.

I watched it. It was extra boring. The most boring one I can remember. The dresses were all hideous to me except for Katherine Heigl. She is gorgeous.
And I like how Nicole Kidman looked and her necklaces.

I thought the nicest moment was when Glen and Marketa (?) (Sp?) won for Falling Slowly. I was so glad they beat all those cheesy Disney songs! How did they nominate THREE of them and not one EV song? That's not cool.

All I did was complain that Enchanted was in no way deserving of a single song nomination, and that Eddie should be glad that he want nominated against that shite. Goes to prove everything he says about awards might juust be true.
