oscars.org — Missed the awards show? See who won here. Jennifer Hudson appeared shocked as they announced her as the winner for Best Supporting Actress. When she sang with Beyonce it was easy to see why this young singer/actress/american idol contestant's star has risen so quickly, the girl was on fire.

many americans obviously dunno the difference between screaming ya guts or singing.hudson annoying timbre and long endless screaming in blackbitch mode on a edited and filtered movie got even worse live.she made beyonce look like heaven or paradise. a girl that knows how to sing without breaking the ears off everyone. much sweeter and professional performance delivery.to give an oscar for such a talentless performance is almost criminal.also eddie murphy deserved more recognition than he got, coz his character had depth and contrast within, from the stereotyped black artist to the suffering of a man inside, all in a few scenes. flawless.

Wait a minute...is it just me or did Children of Men win one oscar? I distinctly remember this while watching the Oscars all the way through (because i was rooting for that movie and no others) I was sure that it got at least one, because i also remember jumping for joy when it was announced...however i cannot remember the catagoryhmmm...i must have been on something...

Sorry for posting again but i just wanted my opinion in here you can digg me down its all good...1. Children of Men should've gotten way more credit.2. The Departed was good, but could've been better and professionally wasn't that great.3. I'm glad Dream Girls got some.4. Pans was a fantastic film5. Children of Men should've gotten it for cinematography

i too was bummed that CoM didn't get any awards. what a powerful piece of work that movie is. still, i was glad to see pan's labyrinth win some awards. i saw it on saturday night, and it's a fantastic movie, too -- well deserving of the awards it won. i was sorry to see united 93 get snubbed.

Stubadub:""1) Infernal Affairs wasn't high on the radar of the academy 4 years ago.2) The film won best adapted screenplay, a clear admission that the material is from another source.3) Though the subject matter is the same, each film has a different approach. The Departed spends more time with the characters and you get a better idea of what they are experiencing.Having seen both I think the Departed is a better film, and while I agree it isn't Scorsese's best picture or the best picture made this year, I am satisfied with its win."Weird I felt that Infernal Affairs had better context and better character development. At one point I felt that the screenplay award should not have been given as it is a copy of another film, but when you look closely at it the culture differences alone within the movie, one can't help but require a huge rewrite as many of the underlying themes would not be understoon in North America. To me the Departed was too long of a movie and key points were not translated properly to create the full effect (e.g. the cast on the broken arm in infernal affairs with the morse code created such suspense not found in Departed). To each their own in the end, Goodfellas should have gotten Scorcese his first anyways.
