I just wanted to say how impressed I was that David Fincher and Robert Downey, Jr. supported our site by posing for Cinephile's portraits.  They've got very busy schedules, people, so I say they deserve a round of applause.  Roger Deakins... not so much.

Wow!  Gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised by the Zodiac love in the HWs, though I'm disappointed by the lack of support for Diving Bell. 

How many people voted this year?  Higher or lower than last year?

Thanks everyone involved in making the awards happen.

Loved the Fincher and Downey toons.


....sorry I forgot to send my final votes.

yep, the two best movies of the year were recognised.  much better than last year when the best movie only got one negligible nomination.

overall i couldn't be happier with the results. and those hw toons had more humour than any willfarrel/jackblack Oscar skit.
