well, actually in the polls it says Meryl has a 1 vote lead to Carey Mulligan :P
I also thought Meryl won by one over Carey.
All that sounds about right.
Oh shit, that must have happened at the very last second. Thanks guys.
If this was how the Oscars ended up, I’d be pretty okay with it.
Wow. This is going to be pretty close to the actual results, isn’t it? One or two substitutions, but that’s about it.
Oh! And does anyone know where I can watch the Oscars online tonight? That would be über-appreciated!
I’m hoping THL will grab a Screenplay and Sound award too so that Avatar won’t emerge as the big winner of the night. There’s little doubt that Bigelow will win Best Director but Best Picture still seems it could go either way.
Basterds for Original Screenplay and Giachinno for score.
That is an awesome line-up. It may actually be my ideal winners list.
Wow, Colin Firth won the actor poll? Bravo everyone, I think he truly deserves it the most.
