Oscars!

I was pretty surprised that they made a tribute to the horror genre.

Thought it was a little random for them to do that, but the montage they made was pretty nice.

Every genre gets its year I suppose. It was a great montage indeed, especially the attention they gave to Rosemary's Baby. Classic.

Not to mention the tribute to the late great John Hughes. Well done.

Whoa...The Hurt Locker really cleaned up, huh? 9 nominations, 6 wins including Best Picture and Best Director.

Also, it was just brought to my attention that Kathryn Bigelow is James Cameron's ex-wife? Is this true? If so, she beat her ex-husband for Best Director AND Best Picture. If that's really the case...hahahahaahahahahahahahah.

I've never been able to comprehend why they're such a big deal. Seems like a stupid popularity contest to me.

Well, the box office doesn't put in the votes (or so they say...), actors, producers, writers, etc are the members of the Academy who do so. Good enough for me.

Glad to see Christoph Waltz and Jeff Bridges win. I owe it to myself to see a lot of the films though, I missed quite a few of 'em.

Let me guess, Avatars won them all? Honestly don't care about these kinds of awards, never have, they just throw them and the biggest box office successes rather than the movies that actually deserve them.

Actually, Avatar hasn't won a lot. Hurt Locker has gotten the more 'important' awards. But of course these big box office movies get the awards for design and sound, that just is obvious.
