Oscar Open Thread

I’ll outsource my picks to Roy, and add only that I really hope Steinfled or Leo win supporting actress (the fact that the former is being nominated for “supporting” although she probably had a higher percentage of screen time than De Niro in Taxi Driver notwithstanding.)

UPDATE BY ROB: It’s quite a lot of fun listening to Bale drift in and out of accent in this classic clip:

ALSO BY ROB:
I’d like to congratulate our own “Sideshow” Dave Watkins for winning the Academy Award for Best Short Film!

…[SL] Whether this was the most amateurish Oscars ever was vaguely debatable, but having Celine Dion wreck what’s normally my favorite part clinches it.
