LoTR coronation and other moments
Well, the ceremonies this night have pretty much been a coronation of LoTR. But there have been some good moments:

My favorites up to know- Blake Edwards getting his award, the Farrel and Black presenting best song. Wht about the rest of you?

Only 2 Oscars left,
where Lord of the Rings is nominated.

And some people say that there is little doubt that LotR will get those Oscar also

What did someone say?
"We are thankful that LotR isnīt nominated in this Category."
How true

Oscar jokes are like watching the popular kids from high school standing around making a bunch of lame inside jokes.

Some things are funny, like Adriend Brody making fun of his kiss last year.

Oh, and Charlize Theron just went on thanking half the know world..God, we know you re excited-but we don't care!

me too. I almost want to see Master and Commander win. I was pleasantly surprised on that one. I didn't think it would be that good.

ROTK certainly didn't get all 11 Oscars did it? I think I lost count halfway through.

Damn damn damn damn damn

Fully undeserving, IMHO...but I'm just a critic.

Mystic River should have won...Sean Penn winning is good, and anyone but Jude Law should have received it.

You know, this may be the first year that every actor category was taken by the person who was predicted to take it.

PS: Did anyone else get tired of hearing all the New Zealand/Australian accents?

21 GRAMS should have been nominated and won.

But, since it didn't, LOTR did, and that's good enough for me.

A shame that LotR won everything. Once again, the Academy demonstrates how retarded and reactionary it is.
