Do I need to start pumping money into Hollywood again??? I feel so out of the loop. Of ALL the films nominated tonight (like, every category), I've only seen 4.
Kate Winslet makes me quiver (she owes SO MUCH to that sunken ship)! And "Slumdog" has got me so curious!

Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:48pmI'm loving the fact the Emma Thompson and Greg Wise (Sense and Sensibility) are there to witness Kate's big night..... And cheer for her!

Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:49pmYAY for Kate !!! This is a first, winning both awards she was nominated for, isn't it ??? A well deserved recognition, long overdue !!!

Greek, I believe it is - she said when she won the first award this evening that she 'never wins anything'.
Adored her in "Sense and Sensibility".

Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:51pmWow. Didn't see this coming. Happy for Rourke, though.
#156
Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:51pmMickey Rourke looks like a rockstar.

dramarama - LOL - I thought that was good karmic 'payback' for the interview diss they gave on the red carpet.
In fact, it's priceless
(sorry, I'm just really over the whole Brangelina thing!)

Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:52pmIt's no use crying over spilled... well you know... but MILK was so so so sorely over-looked by the Hollywood Foreign Press. Old white homophobes still at the helm (even if the pretty mixed people win the trophies).

eh, I had other picks in the category.
Kind of over the Mickey Rourke kind of behavior.
ETA: I agree with Greek... YUCK!
#160
Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:53pmI have crushes on many rockstars, and Mickey Rourke does not look like any of them. He looks disgusting. Ick.
#161
Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:53pmMickey Rourke ???? YUCK, I despise this washed out deformed has-been ! Even if he was good in this film, it was probably accidental, he is an awful actor !

Me too, adgal. Me too. Karma's a BITCH, bitches! *In regards to Brangelina.
And yeah, I wanted Leo to win.. but oh well, Rourke is ok.

I would hardly call the Hollywood Foreign Press "old white homophobes", EugLoven.
#165
Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:56pmOld GAY homophobes

Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:57pmThanking his dogs... a little strange, but I get it.
#167
Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:58pmIf the Oscars are in sync and award Slumdog, Boyle and Rourke, the ratings are gonna be abysmal again !
#168
Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:58pmSigh, I loved Slumdog, but would have given something to Frost/Nixon.
#169
Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:59pmFrost/Nixon deserved screenplay IMO
#170
Posted: 1/11/09 at 10:59pmGreek, that's a big concern for ABC and the Oscars this year...
#171
Posted: 1/11/09 at 11:00pmUgh, Slumdog depressing-aire? Couldn't have they made it a surprise? Something we WEREN'T expecting?
#172
Posted: 1/11/09 at 11:01pmNew York Magazine did a great review/write-up of SLUMDOG a few weeks ago that called this evening perfectly. A sneaky low(ish) budget indie-film stealing the way to the front. Entertaining story and should definitely invigorate some ticket sales. Putting a face of a foreign country onto the US screens and a not-so-absurd tale with a real heart. Congrats to them!

Posted: 1/11/09 at 11:01pmSo far not one AMERICAN won in any big motion picture category, right ? I'm not sure about Rourke's nationality, but honestly, who cares ?
