12:04 great night - not much suspense though -- can't argue with most of the winners - i;m a little tipsy full wrap-up tomorrow


11:59 Tom Hanks presents Best Pic - Hurt Locker! won 6


11:58 Ho-hum speech - Baldwin and Martin have been virtually non-existent since their opening


11:56 Director -- I think its a no-brainer that it will be Bigelow - winner is Bigelow!!!!!! likely not the woman you would think to win this but certainly deserving


11:53 never got your appeal Barbara


11:51 boring speech Sandra


11:48 and out Best Lady of the evening is Sandra Bullock -- should've stuck with my gut and realized the Academy doesn't care much about how great a performance really is 


11:45  Oprah makes me want to slit my throat


11:41 Nor did I ever hope to see Hope Floats mentioned at the Oscars


11:40  Could I be right on Meryl Streep's win?


11:39:  Hurt Locker might have the edge winning both sound categories - an odd way of looking at it I know


11:33 -  Best Actor lets go Dude!!! damn straight! Jeff Bridges


11:32 I never thought SWAT would be mentioned at the Oscars


11:30  Funny stuff Tim Robbins


11:28 Few montages this year or honorary awards


11:27  interesting way of presenting the nominees in the Best Actor/Actress categories with co-stars announcing the nominees


11:20 Kathy Bates worked with Cameron on Titanic - I was expecting Michael Biehn (not really)


11:18  Foreign language film - always a bit tough to tell - winner is Secret in Their Eyes -- knew I should've gone something outside the most well known


11:16  whats with the lamps?


11:10  Keanu better enjoy his Oscar spotlight


11:08  and Editing goes to Hurt Locker - I still think Best Pic is up in the air -- not the movie


11:06  Editing - if Avatar wins this I think its over


11:04 Documentary Feature - should be The Cove I think - yep


10:55 Visual effects goes to Avatar like you thought it would be something else?


10:52   yeah!!! Up wins Best Score (love his LOST stuff by the way)


10:48 I don't know about these dance numbers for these scores


10:38  In memoriam - i don't like you demi


10:37 Sandra Bullock presenting cinematography (lipstick is too red but still hot)  Avatar - so still tough to say between Avatar and Hurt Locker -- thats good keep the suspense


10:30  I thought Travolta was dead but I like connections announcing the Best Pics nominees instead of the cast


10:29 Sci-Tech - never care about it but I'm sure they deserve their wins


10:27 Sound Mixing goes to Hurt Locker - is a sweep coming?


10:25 Sound Editing goes to Hurt Locker - will Avatar win Sound Mixing?


10:23 I love me some Morgan Freeman


10:20  Sorry to inform Kristen but its commonly known that Silence of the Lambs in 1991 won for horror - and Twilight aint horror - love the tribute though


10:18  yuck Twilight


10:17  Funny stuff Steve Martin sharing a bed ala Paranormal Activity


10:12  Costume Design (SJP's is awful by the way) The young Victoria - hilarious dress by the way Sandy Powell


10:07  Art Direction - I'll be surprised if Avatar doesn't take this for its first win of the night - and it is Avatar


9:59  Supporting Actress - Mo'Nique - Yawn


9:50  Adapted Screenplay goes to Precious!!!! holy crap thats a shock didnt Up in the Air win everything in the award season!!!


9:42  Best Make-up (where the heck was District 9) goes to Star Trek


9:38  I like Ben Stiller as a Navi


9:37 Live Action Short - The New Tenants


9:35 - WTF!!! who is this lady pulling a Kanye interrupting this guy


9:34 Documentary Short goes to Music by Prudence


9:32 Interesting a tribute to short films - Short Film Animated goes to Logorama - I havn't seen the shorts yet but I was expecting Wallace and Gromit to take this


9:29 Ok Saldena's dress is ok from the waist up and then you see the bottom half


9:18 Love a tribute to John Hughes - but seriously Molly don't make it so obvious you're reading off a teleprompter and that dress is terrible


9:14 Big moment for Hurt Locker if it wins Original Screenplay here - and it goes to HURT LOCKER!!!


9:13 Lovin Downey Jr and his tie


9:04 Hooray with T-Bone Burnett - a deserved win for best song


9:03 Miley Cyrus looks a bit old in that dress


9:00 Up wins animated

8:44 and in no surprise Best Supporting Actor goes to Christoph Waltz


8:42 What was with Clooney's look?


8:37  This co-host thing ain't working, someone needs to yank Alec Baldwin off the stage


8:34  NPH should start every award show, loved the Harold and Kumar reference.


8:20:  Ten minutes to the Oscar telecast - Neil Patrick Harris is supposedly opening up the show and all the nominees all suppose to be on stage for some sort of American Idol type of thing.  Anyway stay tuned for a great night
