*wonders how long it'll take for GLADD to bash the Oscars voters for not voting for Brokeback Mountain in the catigories it was nominated in because they are homophobes...*

The fact that that rap song won was despicable.

Yay to Reese for winning, but poor Joaquin...

Not that I am a fan of westerns (HELL NO), but I find that montoshe they ran of "gay-ing up the classics" to be deplorable. I've got nothing against gays, but com'on.

And while on the topic, why is it that in this country, a man cannot act or naturally be publically sensitive without being labed a homo? As one of the more sensitive people in this world, I find it insulting. I have nothing against gay people, but I'm wholeheartedly against assholes who call me as such because I am more sensitive than the average macho man.

I wrote down the winners as they were winning. I was rather surprised when I saw that nobody had posted the list yet so I posted it as soon as the Oscars ended.

When Three 6 Mafia won I was like WTF? Seriously WTH is up with a horrid song winning? I was rooting for Dolly Parton darnit!

Crash winning for best motion picture was a major surprise. Everybody in the chatroom I was in was thinking Brokeback Mountain would win.

Well, to be fair, this isn't a case of Hollywood execs deciding to "gay-up" your typical western. It's based off a short story written in the late 90s by Annie Proulx, who's an absolutely amazing writer.

I'm glad to see Crash didn't go unnoticed and unrewarded. That movie was simply too awesome.

And the Oscar goes to not one movie I believe deserves it...I guess I'm an undergrounder. These award shows aren't for me, they never award anything I care about. Just the crap I don't or the stuff I would make fun of. IE Art films about gay cowboys. I was happy Crash won best picture though. For once a good movie wins. Wish some pictures I really enjoy would win some awards. Like Lord Of War...

I saw Walk the Line and thought it was a great movie w/ great acting. I'm not even a fan of country music but it was still a great film. So I'm happy Reese won but I wish the guy who played Johnny would have won too. But I'm so freaking happy that the gay cowboy movie didn't win.

Joaquin Phoenix is the name you're looking for. Yeah, I pretty much agree with your statement. I detest "country", but that movie ruled.

Amen to that, bro.

I'm not sure about George Clooney, 'tho. I mean - I really like Syriana and Clooney had a good role in it but... was it Academy-Award-good? I'm not that sure.

It's kind of sad how aside from King Kong, I haven't seen a single one of these movies.
