my biggest disappointment was that Hal Holbrook didnt win for Into The Wild...


I would have liked to seen Ellen Page win for best actress also. I thought Juno was incredible

Out of every category there were only 4 that I would have voted for the eventual winner...Set design for Sweeney Todd....song for whatever it was that won...actor for Daniel Day-Lewis...and directing for the Coen Brothers. I honestly though that There Will Be Blood was robbed in the Best Motion Picture award, that movie was IMO way better than No Country For Old Men, and I loved No Country.

My favorites were Marion Cotillard for Best Actress
Ratatouille for Best animated feature
No Country For Old Men for best picture,best supporting actor, best director, and best adapted screenplay
My dislikes were Daniel Day-Lewis for Best Actor
Especially best cinematography for There Will Be Blood
I found There Will Be Blood to be quite dull.
