Wow, I feel really young. After looking at the list of the movies that Sydney Luget (who got the Lifetime Achievement Award) did, I have never seen any of them.
Anybody else have any thoughts on just about anything involving the Oscars?

I'm glad Sideways won for best adapted screenplay. That was a fantastic movie. One of the best movie endings I have ever seen. It struck the perfect note. (Anyone who's seen it, please don't spoil it for those who haven't.) I'm thrilled that Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind won best screenplay. After Sideways, the best movie of 2004. Kate Winslet was a delight. I'm also happy that The Incredibles won for best animated feature. Another home run for Pixar. They always remember the number one priority: story! Hilary Swank thanking her lawyers? Puh-leeze! BD, you've never seen any of those Sydney Lumet movies? Dude, you've gotta get to the video store! Rent Deathtrap, at least!

I couldn't stand sideways...although maybe you have to be in yuor thirties and a wine enthusiast to like it. I just didnt find it funney except in one or two places in the film, and those were split apart by huge speeches about wine. I didn't find the ending overly special...although thinking about it parts of it arent what you would expect, maybe I was jsut too bord out of my mind by then to actually take it in. I agree with Incredibles, that film rocks! Not really on oscars but more just films in general- have any of you seen team america? god i love that film! It's almost as good as shaun of the dead, and that film made me nearly wee myself
