And the Oscars goes to…

So, another Oscar night and a whole bunch of new winners. The 82nd Annual Academy Awards have have just wrapped and without a doubt the big winner was “The Hurt Locker” (the film scooped six awards!). Personally I’m very pleased about Christoph Waltz getting a statue for his fantastic performance in “Inglourious Basterds.”

There were actually very few surprises with most categories won by the favorites. No thrills at all. That lack of surprise continued over into Best Actor and Actress, with “Crazy Heart’s” Jeff Bridges and “The Blind Side’s” Sandra Bullock both taking home a golden statue.

The broadcast has some “technical problems” with really bad choice of clips and audio dropouts. The whole show, unfortunately,  lacked much of the polish of last year’s Academy Awards.
