I'm kind of rooting for Kathryn Bigelow, she's been out there making great movies for a long time.

 

[PlainSimpleJoel]

What's bet Kathryn Bigalow wins.

 

[Trekker4747]

So how many times has Streep lost now?

She's been nominated 16 times and has won... twice?

Jessie James is already trying to think of all the things he can weld onto Oscar there.

You could tell he wanted to put rockets on it and set an Oscar land speed record.

 

[indranee]

YAY Kathryn!!

 

[CaptainCanada]

And Bigelow wins. No surprise, but deserved.

And seriously, she's nearly 60. Doesn't look a day over 40.

 

[Daneel]

Good for Bigelow. I admit, I didn't quite get all the hype for The Hurt Locker (I mean, it's good, but I don't think it's that good), but she did a great job directing it. Plus, it's about damn time a woman won this award.

 

[Kira's Mom]

YES! Kathryn Bigelow wins!

 

[Aragorn]

If Avatar wins for Best Picture, will Cameron want a moment of silence in honor of all the dead Na'vi?

 

[Koinek]

Rooting for Bigelow and the Hurt Locker.

Edit: Looks like my feed is a bit late.

 

[Trippy]

Snap! Take that Cameron!

 

[Neroon]

So how many times has Streep lost now?

She's something like 1 for 16

 

[Trekker4747]

Quite a comely woman, isn't she?

 

[Samurai8472]

[melancholymecha]

I think I read somewhere that James wanted her to win this. So thats cool...

 

[Bad Bishop]

Cameron's not king of the worrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrld!

 

[Kira's Mom]

So how many times has Streep lost now?

14.

And 13 in a row! She should have won last year...

 

[Data Holmes]

Snap! Take that Cameron!

He was the first one standing to applaud.

BS. You know it's eating him up inside.

If he did say that he did it to be polite.

2 for 16. She won Supporting for Kramer vs. Kramer and Lead for Sophie's Choice.

He has said it. He was a big booster of the film early on.
