“The document is a complete fraud,” Oscars spokesperson Leslie Unger said.

“PricewaterhouseCoopers is still counting the ballots and there are only two people there who will know the complete list of winners in advance of the envelopes being opened during the ceremony.

“The Academy’’s president is not advised of the winners in advance and no such list is created,” Unger added.

If it's genuine, I'm very surprised that a) Amy Adams should win for Doubt over Penelope Cruz and b) that Waltz with Bashir should not win best Foreign Language film.

Not to mention it's a scanned image of a blank, crumpled paper that someone went and put text on top of.

It doesn't even look real.

Slumdog Millionaire is such a ridiculously overrated film. I've always been a massive fan of Danny Boyle, but I could name at least 3 other films by him that are better than this nonsense.

It's twee, unsurprising and hyped to death. I don't expect anything else from the Oscars, or film in general, but still. With all the great films of the last year, this overrated tripe is sweeping the boards.

I hope to god it doesn't win best picture.

Also, In Bruges not winning Best Screenplay? As if any further evidence was needed that the Oscars is a ridiculous joke. :roll: (no more evidence was needed, it's just still worth saying).

Edit; is this amount of adverts normal for American TV?

Glad to see Boyle get the nod for Best Director. Although Slumdog was not my favorite of his films, it was definately a good watch, and beautifully filmed.

I hope that he continues to keep things on the artsy side--it suits him.

Sean Penn was really good in Milk, but I felt that Rourke should have won....

I liked the ceremony. First I've watched in a number of years, and I probably would have missed it if I hadn't been visiting my mom. I haven't seen many of the movies, so I had little interest in who won. I liked the musical numbers, especially the first one. Um, musical medley for the three nominated songs was cool. Ben Stiller was funny as was Jack Black. Didn't realize Hugh Jackman was such a performer. He could do well on stage. (probably has)

favorite part was when he proclaimed "I AM WOLVERINE!"

You know, I've never been a big fan of Brad Pitt, but everytime they showed him I couldn't help think how classy he looked, like a film star plucked right out of the 30's. Not just the way he was dressed, but his demeanor too. Very Clark Gable...

Him and Clooney have been ripping that Clark Gable look off for over a year. Fair enough though, they both do good work.

Rourke should have won best Actor, his performance in the Wrestler is amazing.

Winnow is still a fucking moron though :(

(for the record, a lot of Irish films are absolutely excellent - In Bruges for example, sorry you can't see beyond your own nose).

In Bruges was good, but I wonder if Nick's attitude is indicative of the entire Irish Film Board...
