Yes, yes I think it is.

I think he’s incredibly, well, hot, and have for 20 years.

Oooh…Hurray for him.

Think it’s because I hate his hair.

But hell yeah he won!! He blew me away in that film.

There should be a special award for best actor not named Daniel Day-Lewis in a leading role.

The kneeling before the queen was a nice touch.

Are there any Americans left in Hollywood?

Quite an amazing lineup for Best Actor this year, don’t y’all agree?

The Brits just had their award show a week or so ago–plenty of non-Brits won there.

it’s about the work, not the nationality.

Wardrobe malfunction? She walked the wrong way (probably due to tears in her eyes). Her dress stayed on just fine. :confused:

Helen Mirren just gets more beautiful.

If you have Tivo or something, rewind it. After she turned and came back the right way, her dress kind of blew up at the slit. She came really close to showing cooter.

I’ll confess I think he’s practically perfect in every way, and I actually watched the broadcast tonight pretty much to see him. He makes me all swoony-like.

I’m calling this one. It’s going to the Coens.

Does it really count as calling it if you pick the favorite (1/5)?

I wish I liked their work more. It’s too violent for me. Someday I’ll watch Fargo, I guess.
Meh. Didn’t they already win tonight?

Blech. Oh, well, it was fun to watch.

Sure but how about a surprise? I’m calling Juno for Best Pic.

Yeah I saw the Coen win a mile away. Happy though, they are cool.

Oooh best picture is…NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN

Back-to-back favorites. Not that surprising, I guess.

Not really :smiley:

Denzel gets to name Best Motion Picture! Talk about your class act! I’m calling “There Will be Blood”

Holy crap! The Coen brothers just walk out from backstage! It must be wonderful to be them tonight!

Oh well, I would have looked like a genius if I was right.

And it appears to be the unders on the other two props I mentioned. This thing just flew by this year, didn’t it?

So everyone … same time next year?

Wonder why Brad Renfro was left out of the farewell reel?

G’night, Jon Stewart! G’night everybody! Gotta’ do show prep for tomorrow morning!
