Oops. Oh,well, probably better tahn I'll do with the Oscars.

Having watched the awards on IFC, which came on at 10 P.M. (why do they do that?) - I have to say John Hawkes' acceptance speech was the best of the night. Maybe he sounded fresh because he hadn't won anything else this year.

Is it me, or is Jennifer Lawence becoming annoying with her routine? From the applauding her own name to the constant thanks to "Harvey" to the inability to remember who is giving her the award this time, it's the same old schtick, Renée Zellweger, redux.

Technically, you missed Documentary, but that's fine. You beat me by one because I thought for sure they'd go with the Oscar nominee over the non-nominee in Best Actor.

Not to brag, but I did 100% on my predictions as posted on CinemaSight's main page yesterday.
