My views on what happened: Best Picture: I thought Inglorious Basterds was the best film, but The Hurt Locker was amazing, anything but Avatar winning. Acting-wise, this was the most disappointing year for me since 1999 when Benigni, Paltrow, Coburn and Dench won. Bridges: pity win for losing SO many times. Just one Colin Firth clip from “A Single Man” blows Jeff Bridges’ entire performance “in Crazy Heart” out of the water. Bullock: though I wanted her to win, her Oscar was completely influenced by her huge success last year, by far not the best performance. Sidibe had the best performance. Waltz: meh… I don’t really have an argument against him except that I personally did not want him to win. Mo’Nique: I can’t stress my disgust for her any longer, so I’ll just say that it was a waste of an Oscar because she was her old loud bitchy self during the whole film and she is clearly NEVER going to make an award worthy film again. And her whole bit about thanking the Academy because they proved that they were awarding the performance and not the campaign, screw her, easy to say that when Oprah and Tyler Perry are doing all the campaign for you
