"Thank you for that introduction Jon. You never cease to amaze me with your constant need for attention." Steve Carrell

One of the best one-liners ever at the Oscars

Juno should win, I hope it does. Juno was so well written and the acting was so awesome. I love Ellen Page, she deserves the win!

Hurmoth I have an urge to punch you in the balls right now. Juno should not win (best picture) it was a good movie, but not a great movie. Anybody who tries to argue that Juno is better than NCFOM or TWBB needs to be... well... punched in the balls.

"Yay or Nay" summary so far:

Elizabeth: The Golden Age wins for costumes: NAY! Mediocre movie, mediocre costumes. Across The Universe & Sweeney Todd had much more creative & cooler stuff.

Ratatouille wins for Animated: YAY! Although of course, that win really wasn't much of a surprise.

La Vie En Rose for Makeup: YAY! Hey, as long as it wasn't Norbit...

The Golden Compass for FX: NAY! Transformers NOT having the best FX of the year? You're all high, dammit. Chirst, you can't even argue that a better movie won...

Sweeney Todd or Art Direction: YAY! Sweeney Todd & Tim Burton's style have at least one Oscar so far, so Hell yeah!!!

Javier bardem for Best Supporting Oscar: YAY! He gave us all the most memorable & best character of the bunch, plain & simple. And bonus points for his rapid Spanish part during his speech...I just thought it was cool.

So thankfully the Yays are beating the Nays 4 to 2 so far. Of course, the 2 f***ing montages so far may be considered Nays, but we'll see how the rest of the night goes...=P

FYI, Hurmoth - you are crazy. Juno is a good little movie, but it is nowhere near the level of ANY of it's Oscar competitors.

I beg to differ, when it comes to the best picture nominations I don't think Atonement should be anywhere close. I can think of at least 15 better films. What about Gone Baby Gone or In The Valley of Ellah? I'm suprised that Cate Blanchet didn't get best supporting actres. And I think Transformers should have gotten best FX.

I should've seen NCFOM before I saw Javier Bardem at the Oscars. Now when I finally get to see it, his performance may not come off as evil as it would've now that I've seen him act all sweet and kiss his mother.

Don't bash someone just because they want Juno to win. Many people would rather watch a happy movie than some brooding, good, but depressing movie. It's just their opinion.

Persepolis should've won. It's one of the best movies of the year.

And Golden Compass? Come on... Pirates and transformers both looked far better.

I haven't seen Persepolis; but I can't imagine that it could possibly be better than Ratatouille. I felt like Ratatouille should have been nominated for best picture and not just animated.

"Transformers" should have one, "Juno" shouldn't win, and Tilda Swinton's win, while not as good as Ruby Dee or Amy Ryan, was welcome.

Wow, you people really can't except the fact the someone might disagree with you. I've seen those other feels and I enjoyed Juno a lot more. So in MY opinion, I would rather see Juno win. Some of you should learn acceptance.

I cant believe that guy won for editing of Bourne. What I hated about that movie was the camera work and how choppy it was. But I will give some credit; it had to be hard as hell to sort out all of that shaky cam footage and make something of it.

It's not supposed to be a popularity contest, it's supposed to judge MERIT. As in: "Juno lacks the merits of a Best Picture nominee."

Im entertained to see Ultimatum winning so well. It's impressive.

Overall I'm satisfied so far. Falling Slowly had better win. It would be a travesty to Music in Film. "Guaranteed" getting snubbed is just criminal.

Go No Country for Old Men. Javier needed to win. Needed to.

I couldn't agree with theginsengtree more. Also Atonement shouldn't be there either so I agree with whoever said that.
