I haven't heard of half of the actors, actresses and films mentioned in CJ Gregg's initial post. I do still enjoy watching the Oscars, though.
Have any of The Oscars ever been released on DVD?

So Crash won Best Picture!
Although "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp"'s win of Best Original Song gives me pause.

I'm extremely disappointed in the best picture, Crash is not the best picture at all. Very good movie, but not the best of the 5.
Brokeback Mountain was robbed

I think Brokeback Mountain got all the awards it deserved. Maybe Best Picture, though. I haven't seen Munich, but I can say that Capote was indeed better than Crash.

The award for best picture (crash) is good because it tells us just because a movie has thousands of good reviews doesn't mean its going to win.
I am happy with the choice...despite most of you guys liking for Brokeback Mountain. The movie Brokeback Mountain is still good. It just failed to win against another good film (crash).

I'm disgusted that Star Wars didn't win any. I think it deserves Best Picture, but that's just me...
No surprise that three of the politically-charged movies were at least nominated, if not winning at least one award.

RM, ROTS was not worth the gas it took to drive to the theater. Or the calories expended walking to the seats. I enjoyed my popcorn more than the movie. Watch Serenity for good SciFi this year. Its everything SW wasn't. Thats my strong opinion.

I liked Crash a lot. I was glad that it won Best Picture. What I was upset about was that Howl's Moving Castle didn't win and that Joaquin Phoenix didn't win as Best Actor. He did such a great job as Johnny Cash. I was VERY glad that Reese Witherspoon won for Best Actress though. Yeah, "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp" was surprising. I like a lot of Jon Stuart's responses to that too. They were funny. I thought he was funny throughout the whole show. What did you guys think?
