I didn't doubt you in the first. I was just surprised that there were so many.

And, yeah, I'd like to see Viggo win, and Javier Bardem was absolutely riveting in NCFOM, so he ought to have a good chance of the supporting actor award...

Casey Affleck is outstanding in The Assassination of Jesse James by The Coward Robert Ford, though, so I think it could be between those two for the award.

I didn't get a chance to catch that one, and it looks like it won't be until February that it's out on video...

Shame there was no ceremony.  I would have welcomed another Gervais awards speach.

I hope Recount wins, just cos it was written by Jonathon.

Ricky Gervaise was funny

I'm happy that Ledger and Wall-E got awards.

Buffy's Jonathan hasn't changed one bit.

True. From Pleasantville, through Buffy and The Gilmore Girls he does not appear to have aged (or grown) in any way.

Now his films are winning awards. Perhaps he's tried a more subtle 'Superstar' spell this time...............

I heart that episode of Buffy.
He's in Pleasantville?
