I found a video that gives you an idea of what the show was like. She sang my face off.

Snap­shots from wednesday’s show, taken with my S90.
they are a lit­tle bit pho­to­shopped. maybe.

I just watched The Hurt Locker, this year’s best pic­ture. I finally under­stand what all the fuss was about. Con­grats to Kathryn Bigelow for beat­ing her ex-hubby James Cameron at his own game.
by game I mean mak­ing great films, not money. OBVIOUSLY.
I searched online for a good poster, but couldn’t really find one I liked. This one is pretty good, but a lit­tle text-heavy. So I tried to make one myself. It’s not per­fect but it’s bet­ter than this crap.

In true Oscar tra­di­tion, roughly 99% of my picks to win, lost. I really did not expect The Hurt Locker to out-win Avatar six to three, includ­ing Best Pic­ture!
Guess I should go watch it now…
