The 82nd Annual Academy Awards - discussion thread

Carey Mulligan is just so darned adorable. She'll get other Oscar chances.

So do I. And would love see on Dr Who again.

Another no suprise there for Sandra Bullock.

Good to see that tonight's winners for best actor and actress are enjoying their first win.
 
Yeah does sorta make you want to root for the first timers. Although you feel bad for the ones who've been nominated time and again and they never get the brass dude.
 
Any good comedy bits (by hosts or presenters) i should look to youtube?
 
Well, as predicted, Sandra Bullock won. I don't think I've seen any of the films that these actresses were nominated for, so I can't really say if I feel she deserved this award or not, but I've never had anything against her, so congrats to Ms. Bullock.
 
Loving Sandra's acceptance speech! A bit long, but man it's heartfelt. Frankly.... this was a tough category to choose. Everyone nominated could won with little protest form anybody
 
Glad Sandra mentioned her mom, Helga. :( Helga Bullock taught voice at my local college until she was too sick to continue. My sister and I both wanted to study with her, and one of our friends did- said she pushed her students hard. Good thing she pushed Sandra hard, too.
 
Yay for common ground! I'm glad you enjoyed Avatar, and I've enjoyed our debate over it's visual merits. :)

In fact I've discussed nothing but if you want to get into story that's a whole other topic....:):):cool:

Do you think, with its effects and story taken in aggregate, that it deserves a win for best picture? Like I said I wasn't impressed in the least with the plot and dialogue, but they've handed the award to worse.

That's tough, it is a decent experience in total, but my problem with both it and Trek is with a pedestrian story, I felt like I've been through those story beats before. I don't think it'd be a crime if it won but I haven't seen all the nominees and thought it through to say which is truly best.
