One of the best I have seen in a while.

4. *may be a vague spoiler*

did the elevator ride, at the end, stun you when you saw it?

I didn't see that coming.

5. Oh, absolutely. *spoiler*

From the point that Martin Sheen's character got pushed on was just a wild ride.

I shouted "nooooooooo" twice in about a three second timespan. Then, Marky Mark saved the day at the end.

That film was totally engrossing.

3. WooHoo! I've been jumping up and down cheering.

I was hoping Scorcese and the movie would both win. Hard to believe it actually happened!

7. I would act surprised if I was

I think most knew all along this movie would win, along with the director.

8. I despised that film.

Oh well ... they didn't ask me ... :)

10. Good movie

but c'mon, it was the same thing as the Chinese film "Infernal Affairs", just culturally translated. I saw "Infernal affairs" just a few days ago and was surprised how the films were almost identical. Though I do think Scorcese fleshed out the characters better and gave them more development. But then again, he also made his movie an hour longer than the original. I understand why Scorcesse wanted to redo it, because the plot is very compelling.

But I think the best picture should go to something original. And that it wasn't.

I am glad though he finally got recognized and won though. It was about time.

11. I wanted "Little Miss Sunshine" to win Best Picture

But it didn't, so such is life.
