i didnt like the aviator

IMHO, it got too many nominations/awards

i guess the MPAA needed a "filler movie"

Same here, I did not think that the Aviator was Oscar worthy but I loved Million Dollar Baby.

Million Dollar Baby good movie, I like the Aviator too, so both are deserving. I'm going to see Ray.

I love Tivo. skipping commercials, speaches, and all those film montages, I was able to watch the Academy Awards in under 45 minutes :D

I disagreed with literally every single winner. seriously. every single one. that takes talent.

Anyone who wasn't sick of beyonce surely is now. She's quite attractive but I wouldn't mind not seeing her for another 5 years at this point.

Sean penn obviously can't take a joke.

A few good speeches, but still mostly thank you x y z.

The overall ceremony was pretty bad. I realize they were trying to mix things up but the whole thing where they went into the crowd and/or had them on stage already was lame.
