And the award goes to...

...Million Dollar Baby. So I actually got to sit down and watch the 77th Academy Awards tonight from start to finish for once because all the times before I'd either miss it completely, catch part of it, or would be too busy doing other shit.

The Aviator, Leonardo DiCaprio, Cate Blanchett and directed by Martin Scorsese, pretty much ran away with the Oscars and won nearly all nominations for it. Million Dollar Baby, Morgan Freeman, Hillary Swank, and directed by Clint Eastwood, faired pretty well on it's own too including Best Picture. I was really glad that Jamie Foxx won Best Actor for Ray. Some other of my favorites in there would have to be Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for Best Original Screenplay, The Inredibles winning a couple including Best Animation. Unfortunately, I don't think Sideways ended up winning anything noteworthy. Nothing crazy ended up happening during the award show, but Swank gave a helluva long speech for winning Best Actress. Chris Rock did a good job hosting the show. I hope to continue watching the Oscar's from here on out.

Until next year...ciao!
