The awards this year celebrated the spirit that we saw this past year in cinema. I'm sorry to see that O Brother Where Art Thou? didn't win anything, despite being one of the best films I've seen in years.

Gladiator over Crouching Tiger?
Soderburg over Lee?
Racism is alive and well.

Call it what you want but I would rather watch Russel Crowe act than a bunch of ugly slants *trying* to act.

It truly is amazing how well you prove my point. I feel sad for you, your ignorance and hate must be like a filter blocking out all the beauty in this world, so you end up swallowing sh*t all day like a human catfish.

Don't tell me a movie of Crouching Tiger's beauty and elegance would not have won the best picture award if it starred caucasians speaking english.
