Victory!
I promise I will stop gushing about The Departed after this post. I just have to say, I was really cursing the Academy for keeping me up not only until the stated 11:30 finish time, but really until 12:15 when the show actually ended, but seeing Scorsese get his Oscar (from the directing triumvirate of Coppola, Spielberg and Lucas!) and then the movie win for Best Picture made it well worth it.
And yet I still haven't bought the DVD, which has been out for weeks now! I have a mental block about buying new movies, music or books for myself. I always wait and get them used. For this particular occasion, I will probably give in and get it for myself within the next few weeks. I had been waiting to see if I got it for Valentine's Day, but I guess it was deemed an unromantic gift. :)

i tried my best, but i just couldn't get through the HOURS of awards and thank you's no one particularly cares about... after 3 hours, I remembered why i never watch these award shows... Can't they do the "art props" and "sound effects" when all of america (and the world) are NOT tuned in??? (or at the very least, not allow them to speak???) Ok, maybe that's mean, but it was SOOOO BORING!
I live in the Midwest, and I couldn't even stay up. I don't know how you East coasters do it. Everything's an hour later out there. Yikes.
