[Trista]

Congrats to Kathryn! It's about time.

[Bonbonlover]

Congratulations Kathryn Bigelow

[CrossingGuard]

The guy who walked off Barbara and Kathryn just now was holding royalty within his arms.

WHOA! Um, that was so quick.

[Bonbonlover]

Congratulations to The Hurt Locker... too bad they are running out of time

[Trista]

Congrats indeed! I had kind of figured that it would win, and ironically this was one of the lowest, if not the lowest-grossing nominated film this year.

[TopCatDC]

Hmmm... 13 right / 11 wrong. A so-so year for me.

[CrossingGuard]

He literally said a few words and then announced the winner. I wasn't even looking at my TV screen when he announced "The Hurt Locker."

But yay! I wanted THL to win. I love seeing the three of them in the background, with their arms wrapped around each other's shoulders.

[Bonbonlover]

Kathryn seems truly shocked

[norealityhere]

Congrats to all who won.
Everyone predicted to win by the oddsmakers did, in fact, win. No surprises at all.
That usually does not happen.

I would, with all due respect though, go back to the show's prior directors / producers.
I've been watching this show for many, many years and this was one of the most boring ever.

[CrossingGuard]

It was a pretty boring show, I have to admit. And yes, very predictable. I would have liked to have had the Original Song performances instead of the dances to the Original Score nominess.

The only thing I didn't expect was Precious winning Best Adapted Screenplay. I expected that to go to Up in the Air. But other than that, there were no shockers whatsoever.
