It's the effing Academy Awards man! What did you think? I don't have much of an opinion on it, since this was one of the first years that I hadn't seen most of the nominees. All I can say is Ratatouille as Best animated film=yes.

These awards are all politically charged anyways...

I didn't see most of the movies that did get awards, but Transformers and Juno should have swept them. Gone Baby Gone was also a very good movie.

Oh... nevermind.

Well, I'm happy Pan's Labyrinth won for art direction anyway.

I think American Gangster and Eastern Promises should have won more awards. Namely, Viggo Martensen as the biggest baddest of the year, Denzel Washington as best actor, and Eastern Promises as best movie.

EDIT

Unless Cloverfield came out in December, then it should win for pretty much all categories.

I was kinda surprised American Gangster didn't even get nominated

Seriously... this was the year of snooty underground "independent" films that no one cares about. It was a complete snobbish snore fest. They tried to get people to watch it with Miley Cyrus being there, and her being interviewed by Barbara Walters. Then people realized that was the only interesting aspect of this year's Oscars, and the 2008 broadcast ended up having the lowest ratings in Oscar history.

Oh well... at least Pirates won something (I think). I don't remember what it was though.

Which Transformers should have won. Well, not makeup, but visual effects.

It won Best Picture, what more do you want? Though I think Eastern Promises was better. And maybe American Gangster too.
