It's beyond lame. Ellen is trying but ...

there's not much energy there ... in the audience or the presenters ... or, am I just imagining that?

The foreign film montage was fantastic. So many I need to see.

Great to see Kurosawa and Felinni and Truffant films again.

Are we all gonna go out and get Egyptian stuff now?

Or will they be on to something else by the time we catch up?

whatever happened to this talented guy? As if I didn't know - although his work in Sin City was absolutely superb.

The Lives of Others is a very good film about life in Communist East Germany.

Thanks. No wonder I didn't know who he was. The only movie of his I've ever seen is King Arthur.

The other thread is for people who love movies and don't want to just make sarcastic comments.

I like movies AND sarcastic comments :)

The winners list so far:

Feb 25, 10:23 PM (ET)

By The Associated Press

Partial list of winners at the 79th annual Academy Awards, presented Sunday night at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles:

Supporting Actor: Alan Arkin, "Little Miss Sunshine"

Adapted Screenplay: William Monahan, "The Departed"

Animated Feature Film: "Happy Feet"

Art Direction: "Pan's Labyrinth"

Sound Mixing: "Dreamgirls"

Sound Editing: "Letters From Iwo Jima"

Animated Short Film: "The Danish Poet"

Live Action Short Film: "West Bank Story"

"West Bank Story" was very corny and lame, heavy emphasis on "corny." The Oscar standard is really slipping these days.
