Everyone in my room is hating on the haughty Sandy Powell, the Oscar-winning costume designer for The Young Victoria. She's cool, I get her, think I understand -- but she erred, I'm afraid. "I already have two of these..."

And The Hurt Locker sound mixer and editors, particuarly Paul J. Ottosson, have won! Ray Beckett! Another sure omen that the Best Picture Oscar is theirs.

Was the sound editing montage on The Dark Knight an apology for not voting Chris Nolan's movie for the big one last year?

WAY LATE to make-up for things. Why not come out and say it. We messed up, we should have nominated this movie last year, and instead the Top 10 nominated movies will be our constant reminder of this for years to come.

Sandy Powell has always been a conceited cow. Her BAFTA acceptance speech this year was astoundingly conceited too.

@ Bill
Same reason why the craziest, goofiest dressed gay guys are considered top stylists. And why every cosmetology school graduate has a bad skunk dye job.

Considering Sandy Powell was disgracefully robbed for her work on Gangs of New York by the generic crap that Colleen Atwood did for Chicago, she can be as haughty as she wants.

Good for her! She should buy herself something pretty from Tiffanys. If only there were a place to go online and order something.

Jeff, shouldn't lihaoxj16 be banned for spamming a bunch of threads?

Also, I actually liked Powell's speech. Maybe because I agree with her on how Best Costume Oscars tend to go to whoever makes the showiest period costumes, rather than whoever makes the best costumes in service of the film, so I'm glad she paid tribute to those who design for contemporary and low-budget films. And yes, what she said at the beginning and end of her speech may have been cheeky, but I thought it was fun cheeky.
