And the fanboys may rejoice and sing in unison. :rolleyes:

Congratulations Heath Ledger in the sky.

Only part I cared to watch. :D

I don't put any stock into awards, but it was really disappointing that Rourke didn't walk away with a win.

Bleh. Another totally unremarkable Academy Awards ceremony.

I'm really bummed to see Slumdog get everything.

which is exactly why i think the oscars are a ig fucking joke.

apparently they can only remmber the last released film.

Lousy Benjamin Button. I loved when Spike Feresten made that thing revealing that it's pretty much the same movie as Forrest Gump.

if people who are complaining about rourke not winning haven't seen MILK then they should shut it.

i loved rourke in the wrestler but penn was amazing in MILK and in many ways this was a much braver performance for a straight man and an incredibly deep and layered portrayal.

i'm not putting rourke's performance down - it is just a pity that two great actors happened to be in the same year.

overall, i thought the oscars were fair and just about right on (and thank god benjamin buttons didn't sweep).

Blah to Milk! This was the Academy making up for not giving it to Heath in 2005 (06?) for Brokeback Mountain, which was an equally deserving and brave performance.

And no I haven't seen it, but blah to Milk anyways! So much hype kills it all for me.

:p

wow - i'm not sure how milk is/was hyped. it is a small film with relatively limited release and Penn got nowhere near the coverage as Rourke for his 'come back' role.

funny how people twist themselves into pretzels trying to rationalize their own opinions
