In all seriousness, I haven’t seen the film – is it a good documentary, not just a relevant one?

It was pretty good, it really was. Rent it, it is worth it. You even get a bonus Futurama cartoon short.

Yes, it makes a dry, boring subject into something fascinating and real and scary.
Clint and Ennio!

Has anyone seen that German film that won Best Foreign Language? I kind of want to say Pan’s Labyrinth got screwed but I don’t know that the German wasn’t better.

I loved it, and did indeed enjoy it more than Pan’s Labyrinth, though I should admit I wasn’t quite as enraptured by PL as many people here were (while still very much enjoying it), so my opinions might not be shared by many people here at the SDMB. But they were, apparently, shared by the Academy! 
Clint’s going feeble, or tied one on in the back?
I’m just glad Deliver Us From Evil lost so that we don’t have to hear Bill Donohue complain about Hollywood’s anti-Catholic bias again.

Is it the same one Paramount used to promote the film online, with Bender asking Gore if he plays a streetwise pimp tryin’ to save his little brother from the thug life?

He did seem waaay out of it and bumbling throughout the introduction.
Great to see Morricone getting an award. Long overdue, IMHO.
Oh, how I love Gabriel’s Oboe from The Mission. It’s probably my favorite piece of music.
Good to hear!
edit: Um, unlike Miss Dion. AGH. OWWWW.
My poor ears, I hate this shrieking evil banshee. Argh!!!
Must Mute.
That’s better, I really hate Celine.
She’s an annoying bint to the nth degree but it has to be said she’s got a great set of pipes on her.
UGH UGH UGH This pisses me off. It sets a bad precedent.
What did this genius do to deserve Celine Dion singing his song?! Damn flap-head!
And I really think they should have a song sung in English for a US awards show.

No, no it does not. She doesn’t. So many sing so much better, truer and cleaner without the shrillness of her voice.
Maybe I’m just drunker and more forgiving that the rest of ya

You can have her. Look, I actually like “My Heart Will Go On” but THIS song wasn’t nominated for an Oscar.

I will laugh my ass off if they play the translation off the stage.
