I would have said Kate was the second surest thing after Heath... but you go girl. Undoubtedly deserved. And, yes, Pas Rap - for the right film. Silly Oscar voters!

seriously, you guys, Rachel Getting Married is like the best thing ever.  but yeah if it was going to be Winslet at least it wasn't The Reader.
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

I liked RGM, but Hathaway is just a n00b. Kate Winslet is Darth Vader. She used to be all teenagey and angsty, but now she's an adult and a certified badass. Hathaway is Luke Skywaler in A New Hope. Whiny, young, hasn't reached her full potential yet. Get's pwned by Vader all the time. Also, Bride Wars.
Let's go to a motel. We don't have to do anything -- we could just swim.

^^  :laughing:

So of course I voted for Kate but Meryl was great in doubt too, and sadly that's the only films I saw of this category.

haha yeah Anne lost all the awards she might've had because of Bride Wars. What a dumb bitch to have done a movie with such a premise.
