Yay for Winslet, Ledger and Wall-E! (The cute little 'bot should have won more though)

Bumping this to make a few comments about this year's awards.


First, yay for Up getting best animation!!!!


But boooooooooooooo for Wallace and Gromit not winning:x. I've seen Logorama, it's not as great as our favourite plasticine duo!

Pissed that W&G didn't win, but the Dude Abides...

THAT'S A BINGO!!

I'm happy for Bridges and Up's two wins. But like the last few years, there wasn't really any film outside the animation category I was rooting for.
