Just an update on Oscar:

The 79th Annual Academy Awards ceremony will take place on Sunday, February 25, 2007, don't miss it guys 

[Ashley Wagner]

I usually turn award shows on before it starts to see what people are wearing, and then I turn it off. I've only seen a handful of movies this year which would make the Oscars boring. So I don't watch The Grammy's on the other hand though.. I'll watch from start to finish.

Best Film: The Departed 
Best Director: Martin Scorsese (The Departed)

I noticed that Happy Feet got best animated film, and from the previews it actually looked kinda good.

I was thinking about watching The Departed but one of my friends told me that it was kinda weird. Is it good?

[Nogg3r5]

The departed is awesome, absolutely awesome. You should watch it

[MetaMan]

Watch The Departed.  Also, Cars was way better than Happy Feet, and definitely deserved that Oscar.  I thought El Laberinto del Fauno would win best foreign film, but I never saw Das Leben der Anderen.

Yeah, the only entertainment in my life 

[javasharp]

I thought El Laberinto del Fauno would win best foreign film, but I never saw Das Leben der Anderen.

Almost all websites predicted its win, Did you watch that movie?

[OldManDeath]

The Departed was a really good movie, you should watch it Ryan.

[Nogg3r5]

Watch The Departed.  Also, Cars was way better than Happy Feet, and definitely deserved that Oscar.  I thought El Laberinto del Fauno would win best foreign film, but I never saw Das Leben der Anderen.

From IMDB :

Movie Academy Yanks Oscar Clips From YouTube

Favorite highlights of Sunday night's 79th Annual Academy Awards telecast posted on YouTube by viewers were removed Tuesday and replaced with a message reading, "This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences," Daily Variety observed today (Wednesday). Academy executive administrator Ric Robertson told the trade publication that the organization had asked YouTube to remove the clips "to help manage the value of our telecast and our brand."

Meanwhile film exhibitors are grumbling about Jerry Seinfeld's quips during the telecast about the high prices at theater concession stands. ("You rip us off on overpriced crap.") In a message to L.A. Weekly columnist Nikki Finke, Gene Oliver, a theater owner in Pryor, OK, wrote, "My theater works on a profit margin of 8-10 percent and we work very hard to keep movies available to the public. The only reason that theaters MUST charge the prices for concessions is to survive. Without concessions there would be NO venues for the exhibition of film. Without popcorn there would be no industry, it is that simple."

.......

Thats sooo stupid. They're clips ! its not like they're losing money for them being there.
