The Departed is good but it's not the best film of the year. As if I stayed up for that shit.

 

[Cyric]

You could've bet your life on Helen Mirren winning best actress. I wasn't really surprised Whitaker won either.

The guy who did the sound editing for Apocalypto has 19 Oscar nominations. Shame he didn't win this year, that film was pretty decent.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I feel sorry for the people who pick up Oscar's for thing's like that. They help make the film what it is and all they get is polite applause.

I saw The Queen and I absolutley hated it. I'm a huge film fan so I'll give anything a chance, but that film really tested my patience.
