Wow. It happened. What an unbelievable night. I am very satisfied.

Re: The Actual Oscar Results Thread
So amazing! I'm really happy that it won, and this certainly means it will see some more screen time in theatres. The radio DJs were talking about the movies nominated a couple weeks ago, and neither had heard of it and their comment was basically "I don't think its out yet," so hopefully it will now get the notoriety it deserves.
At least we can abort fetuses. Bad grammar and language last a lifetime.

Well, The Hurt Locker swept. Avatar suceeded in underwhelming. Good night for Crazy Heart and Precious. Baldwin and Martin were probably the most pointless hosts in years.

Yea I was just thinking that, very saddening, they should have been great but they basically weren't even involved.silversurfer19 wrote: Baldwin and Martin were probably the most pointless hosts in years.

Hopefully, Hurt Locker gets re-released, but I doubt it, since it's on DVD already.
Great win though.
I'm kinda upset Up In The Air was shut out though.

Re: The Actual Oscar Results Thread
Interesting trivia question: before today, what was the last Best Picture winner NOT to come out during Awards Season (Oct-Dec)? Can someone find out?

Other winners in with that description include Gladiator (2000), American Beauty (1999), Braveheart (1995), Forrest Gump (1994), Unforgiven (1992), and Silence of the Lambs (1991).
Hmm... guess it's no so rare an occurence after all.

Though American Beauty opened in September, it went wide in October.

Re: The Actual Oscar Results Thread
My fingers and eyes are tired now despite it only being 6 in the evening here, but the other half wants me off the internet now so I guess I better thank her for putting up with me.... btw, for anyone joining late all the awards are on the first page of this thread.

Re: The Actual Oscar Results Thread
oh well, i guess i'll have to give Hurt Locker another chance, but im really dreading it. Personally, Sandra Bullock winning made watching the long and mostly boring show worth it.
