Watched most of this last night and for the first time in YEARS I had actually seen some of the nominated movies so I wanted to weigh in a bit. I have seen of course Toy Story 3, The Kids are Alright, True Grit (not nominated), The Fighter and finally Social Network (just last week.) It seemed to me to be pretty fair and I was pleased that some of the "non-favorites" won (Like Melissa Leo for the Fighter who I agreed was better than Amy Adams.) Also kudos to Christian Bale and while The Fighter wasn't my fave movie I saw, both of those acting awards were well deserved.
Was glad to see Natalie Portman win, I haven't seen the movie but I know she worked really hard to be in it and make it. Also just happy for her in general, maybe her new fiancee/baby on the way will not be the typical Hollywood mess.
Was glad to see the wins for Glee (all 3 of them) but a bit surprised to see it overtake Modern Family which everyone seems to love (I've never seen it-MF that is.)
Touching moment when Michael Douglas came out.
Was surprised no attention for True Grit which out of everything I have seen so far this year might have been my favorite?
