Check my IBC blog for how I watched the Oscars this year. Some comments on the winners:

• Very happy for Ang Lee, he finally gets a well reserved recognition of his talent.
• Very surprised at Crash winning best picture, I obviously do not agree with them, and you can read my thoughts on Crash here.
• No big surprises in the actor categories, except for Weisz, who I didn’t think would win.
• My wife is very happy that Tsotsi won, even though we haven’t seen the movie.
• I wish A History of Violence had won best screenplay. One of my favorites of the past year.
• I didn’t think the Academy had the balls to vote for “It’s hard out here for a pimp”, but they surprised me. But the performance was still censored.
• Most exciting moment of the evening was when Jennifer Garner (Alias) almost fell on the floor, and then said “I do my own stunts”.
• Jon Stewart was fun. I don’t know why people didn’t like him. I found him funny

I am glad the Oscars are over, I can stop rushing out looking for the movies.
