Since we're complaining about the montages, I must chime in about those acting montages. They were pretty good, don't get me wrong (that Ruth Gordon
clip almost made me tear up!) but I wish they would have shown all of the winners. I liked it during the 75th Oscars when they showed a montage that had a clip
of every winning performance with music in the background. They were really interesting to watch. But these it seems like they showed a few people pre-1970 and
then the rest were all the recent ones (although they left out people like Angelina Jolie!). I was really disappointed. The only good montage was the first one
wiht all the memorable moments.

People said the same thing about Reese Witherspoon in Election and because of that she had a hard time finding roles until Legally Blonde. Both woman are great actresses and if you dont know them personally dont say stuff like that. |

This was the performance to beat and no-one out-performed this actress. I'm a Canuck...Loved Ellen Page and Julie Christie but Marion Cotillard was over the top 'perfect'. So, they did get it right. She was 'amazing', period. |

She was excellent in that movie. I watched it on Neflix, "Watch Instantly", a few weeks ago. I was surpirsed they made it available so quickly.

To be able to convey emotions with so little, rather than screaming "MARCEL???? MARCEL???" while slapping your head like Rainman is what deserves Oscars in my opinion. |

Is Ethan the one that was going to become a woman? Or is that the Weinsteins? I can't keep them straight.

And I don't get what Whoopi's problem is, they showed her longer than most people in the Supporting Actress montage. What did she do as a host that was so special? I don't understand why she is like seriously emotionally upset about it. You were in one montage at least, while most of the earlier winners and quite a few of the recent winners were left out. Get the hell over yourself! |
