Post Oscars

Eh..Pretty good year! At least I got the top four right -- Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director, and Best Film. I was impressed overall with the Academy, though I am a little dissapointed Pan's didn't get foreign film and Children of Men got shut out completely. Oh well. I'm glad Forest Whitaker took best actor...his speech made me smile. He deserved it. Anywho, off to bed :o).
