Anyone see Winter's Bone? Great movie!

Here is Jennifer Lawrence from it -

BTW, Christian Bale should win for The Fighter.
 
can't comment on most of the awards, but I did see and thoroughly enjoy Facebook: the Movie.
I don't know that they guy should be up for Best Actor--the writing was well-done and deserving of an award, imo, but I think there's a bunch of us in the forum here who could do a pretty decent representation of a young-20's sarcastic, introverted techno-geek who doesn't have many friends, hangs with Justin Timberlake and basically gives an eff-you to authority and the world at large while just trying to make a buck and get laid.
 
My wife just ran downstairs telling me that Trent Reznor won an Oscar for the Facebook flick.

The 1990s are officially over.

Trent Reznor did the music for "social network"?

I didn't even know the Oscar's were on tonight. I guess Hollywood congratulating itself once again just didn't make the cut for me.
 
I didn't watch a single movie of those nominated this year. I have inception on Blu Ray but haven't watched it yet.
 
Since when does Christian Bale have an English accent? Did I miss something? I was under the impression that the guy was American...

He was an American Psycho, but he's always been British.

He is English, not 'British'.

He is of or relating to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

He's definitely British.

He might be English, too, of course.

Just like someone might be both "Texan" and "American".

The Texas American football team is going to be a favorite when that sport is introduced into the Olympics. California and Florida will also be tough.

Anyhow, why is it Ireland has its own Olympic team, yet England, Scotland, and Wales have a combined team?

Also, in meeting many people from the UK during my business career, I've yet to hear somebody refer to themselves as "British". It's typically "English", or "Welsh", or "Irish", and what I think sounds like "Scottish", but I can never quite understand the latter dialect.
 
I have not watched and do not actually know who won, but I have seen the Fighter and the Facebook movie on a plane on a recent international business trip - and seen True Grit in the theatre. True Grit was the better of these movies, but I enjoyed the Fighter as well.

The Island of Ireland is divided between Northen Ireland which is part of the UK and the rest which is it's own sovereign country (the republic of Ireland).

No, get it right. He is from England, therefore he's English.
