Very happy with the recognition received by Hurt Locker. Some of the more minor awards, however (editing, cinematography, etc.) not so much. Picked 11 of the winners this year. Also, Barbara Streisand is a horrible presenter and a snotty piece of shit. Even when making a point I enthusiastically agree with (a female director being recognized for the first time) she manages to sound like a horrendous bitch. I hope she trips down some stairs on the way home from the Oscars. Thank god Merryl Streep was evaded, Sandra Bullock was a pleasant surprise though I was hoping for Precious to take it. Jeff Bridges is the fucking man and someday we will have a beer and a joint together.

Fuck yeah, Mo'nique.

Very happy to see that the visuals of Avatar didn't upstage the superior story and acting of Hurt Locker.

I've said it before and will say it again. Special effects don't make a movie. Fuck, if Avatar won then it should have gone up against Moon. Hello Corp. mind fuck.

I was really not that impressed by Moon. I mean it was about as well done as a movie of that type could be but after seeing the preview three options came up for the ending: Time warp, Alien-morph encounter, moon-clone. Well executed though, I have to say. It's also pretty funny to me that James Cameron used to be married to the director of Hurt Locker. I can only imagine the vindictive thoughts going through his head when she won (I'm not surprised they failed to catch his reaction shot). He can always wipe away his tears with one of the many million dollar checks he got from Avatar. What an unimaginative doucher, he directs movies with money instead of creativity and chooses stories that could be written by a child.
