The Best:
- Tilda Swinton becomes the surprise Best Supporting Actress winner! (take that Ruby Dee)
- Sweeney Todd wins Best Art Direction!
- The Golden Compass steals Transformers Visual Effects Oscar! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
- "Falling Slowly" wins Best Original Song!!!
- The Diving Bell and the Butterfly goes home empty handed
- Away From Her goes home empty handed
Classiest Moment: Jon Stewart lets Marketa Irglova give an acceptance speech for best song after she was cut off at the podium.
- MARION COTILLARD WINS BEST ACTRESS!!!!!
- The Coens take home 3 Oscars: Picture, Director, and Adapted Screenplay
- "Remember the dog in No Country for Old Men? Yeah, that was Cate Blanchett too. She is AMAZING". - Jon Stewart
- Cate Blanchett explodes into applause when Marion Cotillard wins best actress
Best Camera Moment: Cate Blanchett grimaces after her clip from "Elizabeth 2" is shown. She clearly understood that she didn't deserve the nomination at all. Good for her.
Best Joke: "Nominated tonight is the film "Away From Her". It's the incredible story of a woman who begins to forget her husband. Hillary Clinton called it the feel-good movie of the year." - Jon Stewart
- Javier Bardem gives the last part of his acceptance speech in Spanish.
- Tilda Swinton teasing George Clooney.
- Original Screenplay Winner Diablo Cody (Juno) manages to hold back the tears until the last half second of her speech.
- Helen Mirren opening the envelope before all the Nominee Clips were finished playing, allowing her to spit out the winner barely a second after the camera cut back to her.
- Ruby Dee looking mega-pissed off as she loses Best Supporting Actress (at least she clapped).
- Jonah Hill and Seth Rogen arguing over which of them gave off a "Halle Berry vibe".
- Julie Christie faking a smile as she loses best actress.
The Bad:
honestly, I didn't think anything was truly terrible....this is the best I can do......
- The Bourne Ultimatum wins best editing over No Country for Old Men's near perfect editing.
- what does Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana have to do with movies? Has she officially taken over the world?
- Kristen Chenowetch botches "That's How You Know" as she performs the Original Song Nominee.
- the opening animated segment was a cheap rehash (and obvious indicator of the small amount of time to prepare) of the opening for the 78th Oscars.
- that one area near one of the podiums: Colin Farrell, John Travolta, and Penelope Cruz (and maybe others) almost tripped and fell on their faces.
- Wow, this overwrought gospel song from "August Rush" really, really sucks.
- Cameron Diaz......just......no.........
The In-Between:
- Nicole Kidman's bizarre necklace, which contained 7, 625 diamonds. Diamonds are a girl's best friend indeed....
- Jon Stewart trying to be uber hip by including "jokes" involving the iPhone and the Nintendo Wii.
Biggest Missed Opportunity: The chance to have Heidi Klum announce Best Costume design by telling the nominees, "Your OWT, You're OWT....You're EEN!"
- Sweeney Todd wins Best Art Direction!
