I agreed with some ofd the winners, like Tilda Swinton, who I thought was amazing in Michael Clayton. I, unfortunately, didn't see all the movies that were nominated, so I can't say fairly who I think should have won or not. But I did see Sweeney Todd and I thought they deserved some awards, bt I can't say if they deserved it more than other movies.


Mainly, though, I think OotP should have been nominated more. Sad


And I missed most of the awards show, even though I had been looking forward to this for months because of Jon Stewart.

^He was absolutely fantastic in that movie, as was Johnny Depp in his role. But again, I haven't seen Daniel Day Lewis in that other movie. I wonder if I had would I agree that Daniel Day Lewis deserved the Oscar.

They won't cancel after 80 shows. People still enjoy it.

^exactly... as the article states, a lot had to do with the writers strike and the movies that were nominated. Each year is different, though. Next year the amount of viewers could increase when Rupert Grint gets nominated for Best Supporting Actor. *crosses fingers*
