Thanks for this Elksi - I did not watch any of the Oscars (too late), and nor did I do predictions as I had not seen Crazy Horse and Hurt Locker (or even Avatar, but I was less worried by this). I thought Christoph Waltz was totally memorable in Inglorious Basterds, and am delighted to see that this

Like many, I am a little surprised at Sandra Bullock's Oscar, and very disappointed for Colin Firth.

Now who has won the prediction game???

Another thanks Elski. Glad someone else actually liked Sandra Bullock and could see past all the drivel she'd done in the past, well predicted. My personal fave, An Education, didn't win but Hurt Locker was certainly deserving.

I think the results were quite predictable in the end, I think most of the favourites won

I'm glad Hurt Locker (excellent film) beat Avator (average film with lots of hype) to the best Picture award!

I am just glad I predicted the main 6 Oscars correctly, and that Up won best animation.

Only saw Hurt Locker a couple of days ago so I'm glad it did well (my bf is ex-military and it had a lot of meaning for us) and congrats to whoever won the oscar competition!!!!!..err..has it already been announced? I'm going blind and haven't seen it if so.

Congrats also to Sandra Bullock for winning a Razzie and Oscar in the same year! Woohoo!

It's always great to see Pixar win, but this year I've got to say there were 2 better films that missed out...

I stayed up, usually it's got it's moments, but the awards were predictable and the hosts annoying and unfunny.

I miss the times where the awards were actually being fought for.
