Oh yes, Joaquin... after the San Joaquin Valley. Brother of River Phoenix.

Who won? The guy who played Truman Capote?

[Mr. Mojo]

but I'm just glad BrokeBM did not win.

Ditto Syriana and Munich.

[greccogirl]

Alright CRASH! I knew it. I'm so glad. Brokeback just wasn't that good. How many awards did it end up with? Two? Nicholson looked like the cat that ate the canary!

[Dashing Dasher]

Leaf is easier to spell than Joaquin.

[Wormwood]

Crash How 'bout that!

I'd say it wabout typical for the Academy.

[Torie]

Crash is an acquired taste, and just grows on you. It was frankly brilliant.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

The big surprise of the night...(guffaw)

[Blue Jays]

The gay mafia is going to have some Hollyweird people wearing cement boots due to BBM not winning the big prize.

[chpmass]

That sounds right. I had to jog my memory on the neighborhoods since I haven't lived in Nashville for about 20 years! I have very fond memories of my childhood there. Great town with wonderful people.

[sono]

Big winner was Jon Stewart who didn't suck.

[mysterio]

Yeah, I though Crash was really good.

[filbert]

That's truly weird. Crash. I don't think most people gave it a chance. And it doesn't sound like a movie I would like, but, along with most other people, I didn't see it.

I saw it. I hated it. I don't like movies that begin and for the better part of an hour show not one single sympathetic character.

The only other movie I've seen in the past couple of years that I've hated with as deep a passion has been "Million Dollar Baby."

[Alouette]

what is Crash about?

Everybody is a racist.

[hole_n_one]

So, what is Crash about?

I think it's about people that take naps during their busy day.

[ex 98C MI Dude]

So BareBack Mountin' is probably gonna win Best Picture. Nothing could surprise me less. The descent of Hollyweird into irrelevance and bankruptcy continues apace.

[Wormwood]

I didn't even think Crash was very good, and I'm sure Brokeback Mountain was better, but this is freaking hilarious.

You are right on both counts.

[RightCenter]

You said it. Taiwan's native son! In your face, Red China!

[altura]

But he is so not a 'leaf.'

[Euro-American Scum]

And lets not forget Ordinary People winning over Raging Bull.

Rates right up there with Shakespeare in Love winning over Saving Private Ryan. At least this year it wasn't the queer sweep it was expected to be.

[Petronski]

I led you astray. CRASH won. Get up to speed.
