Streep won! How many years has it been for her? Is she now the best actress of all time? Or is Hepburn still ahead?

Tom Cruise face must have cost million upon millions of dollars. He looks like he did in Rain Man almost!

Did not realize War Horse was that good. Spielberg is always there.

*edit* I wonder if Cruise will ever win? He always works his tail off when making a movie. Great actor as well.

same with Brad Pitt...

Ha, in the end Meryl Streep topped Woddy Allen with tonight's longest time span between oscars. She won her 3rd oscar after 29 years, he won his 4th after 25 years if I'm not mistaken (not that he would care though).

Again: Too bad Scorsese hasn't won his 2nd oscar. He would have deserved a 2nd one as compensation for ignoring him for Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and Goodfellas, his 3 best movies.

Other than that: Better show than I had expected. The Artist and Hugo were the expected overall winners, none of them will become future classics though.

Billy Crystal still wipes the floor with most other presenters.

Ok that was embarrassing. Me and my friend were having a competition and he beat me 17-11. I'm literally stunned that Streep beat Davis. The only thing I am really bummed about after these awards.


A film about Margaret Thatcher with a great acting performance from an actress who looked and acted exactly like the real Margaret Thatcher. Thatcher was a cold calculating, ambitious, career driven woman who literally crushed every man who stood in her pursuit of power.

In case no one didn't notice: Woody Allen won hist fourth oscar tonight, his first one since 1987.

Too bad that Scorsese didn't win either. These two guys are the two best living US directors imo.


you are right...great that you said "US" and "living"...without that i would had like 30 vetos ^^

but i think we also can add Tarantino to that list...okay he is not totally original and you can see so many influences in his movies but Reservoir Dogs,Pulp Fiction,Kill Bill 1 & Inglorious Basterds are definatly one of the best movies from the 90s & 00s...i dont say he is better than Woody and hell no better than Scocese but he is definatly up there...

Of course I consider them "only" the two best living US directors. The only other one that could compete (now that Altman is not around anymore) would be Coppola. Then Lynch, Tarantino and - yes - Spielberg would follow. If we were speaking about all US directors: So many to consider, from Capra to Wilder, from Huston to Ford...there were dozens, hard to pick the best one.

Well, I'm appalled HP7 didn't get anything, even a nomination for some other stuff.

On the other hand, I'm glad Man or Muppet got best song.

Also, the best Animated Feature winner should have thanked Pixar for making a piece of garbage and giving them a chance to win.

that was a very very bad movie year



Dark_Lord_2008 on 27 February 2012

A biopic about Margaret thatcher(Best Actress) and a 1920s style black and white silent win awards: Best Actor and Best Picture. 2011 was a very disappointing year for movie releases. Margaret Thatcher and silent films are relics from an ancient past.

haha you are still complaining because a movie YOU don't like won some awards. love it^^

i'm still not sure if you don't get why the movie is silent or when you get it i don't get why you complain about it.

how should a movie about this topic look for you? i think it's a brilliant idea to make a movie about this topic like this.

do you think there should never be a movie anymore about something of the history of the world? because they would be about "relics from an ancient past"

what's next? no movie  about the future because we can't know the future? and no movie about fantasy worlds because fantasy is just fantasy?

ahh you liked hugo right? why is a movie like this (in the 30s) good but not a movie about something from the real past? because you say it? trololol
