Yes I read about this today. Excellent. Totally deserving. Although I haven't seen the other best pic nominees. I did see Batman. I'm a huge Batman fan (actually I am Batman when I'm not Cinderella), but I didn't find this one particularly all that great. It was entertaining, but I thought a couple of the earlier ones were much better. Of course, no one has adequately replaced Michael Keaton as Batman. Heath Ledger gave a notable, if horrifying, performance as the Joker in the current movie.

Milk was my favorite movie last year, but the best performance I've seen in the past year was Meryl Streep's in Doubt.

Isn't it amazing that I can save all those people in glass slippers? You should see how they go really well with my cape & mask. :cool::lol:

I haven't seen Doubt. It's on my list, but mainly because I'm a huge fan of Phillip Seymour Hoffman.
