"The fight is over. So tonight, welcome to the makeup sex."
THE FULL LIST OF WINNERS CAN BE FOUND HERE.
MY PERSONAL COMMENTS:
Cate Blanchett and Marion Cotillard are so cute! Their expressions when their movies won are play-back material.

I never really noticed it but Keri Russell is tiny. Goodness, I cannot believe she just gave birth.
Awwww... James McAvoy just nudged Saoirse Ronan when they announced her nomination and she gave a smirk. I love co-star love ♥
Tilda Swinton's acceptance speech was win! And I applaud anyone who refers George Clooney and his tight-donning, cape-wearing days as Batman. "You know, [you have such a] seriousness and dedication to your art. Seeing you climb into that rubber bat suit from Batman & Robin-the one with the nipples-every morning under your costume, on the set off the set, hanging upside down at lunch. You rock, man. Thank you, thank you, thank you."
Jessica Alba realizing she was on-screen when Jon Stewart calls her being preggo? Nice Oscar moment there...
Dame Judy and Halle Berry skit? BRILLIANT. I loved that Seth Rogan was included somehow in that bit.
The songs that they chose this year for 'Best Song' are amazing. The song from "Once" is so beautiful. I cannot believe I haven't watched it yet. Jon McLaughlin is such a hottie *swoons and melts away.* No lie, they're some of my top songs on my iTUNES (minus the two annoying songs from "Enchanted" even though I do enjoy the other one, "So Close.") Here are the nominated songs from the 80th Annual Acadamy Awards that I uploaded for you all...
Falling Slowly [by] Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová
Happy Working Song [by] Amy Adams
That's How You Know [by] Amy Adams
So Close [by] Jon McLaughlin
Raise It Up [by] Jamia Simone Nash and Impact Repertory Theatre
The montage of all the 'Best Picture' winners has reminded me how many movies I still NEED to watch. And I cannot believe I call myself a movie fantatic. For shame :/
My sister and I noticed that Marketa Irglova was cut-off from doing her speech and Jon Stewart, bless his good soul, that he asked her to come back out and actually get to do her acceptance speech. And her speech was absolutely beautiful.
That's so wonderful that they included troops for their presenters. I applaud ;)
HEATH LEDGER WAS MENTIONED IN THE TRIBUTE D; *my heart still breaks*
DIABLO CODY WON FOR BEST SCREENPLAY WHICH SHE ABSOLUTELY DESERVED!!!
I AM IN LOVE WITH CATE BLANCHETT AND MARION COTILLARD *CONGRATS ON HER WIN!!!*
NOTABLE QUOTES:
"I'm speechless. ... Thank you life. Thank you love. It is true there (are) some angels in this city." - Marion Cotillard, after winning best-actress Oscar for "La Vie en Rose."
"George Clooney, you know, the seriousness and the dedication to your art, seeing you climb into that rubber batsuit from `Batman & Robin' - the one with the nipples, every morning under your costume, on the set, off the set, hanging upside-down at lunch - you rock man." - Tilda Swinton, thanking "Michael Clayton" co-star George Clooney after winning best supporting actress trophy.
"The fight is over. So tonight, welcome to the makeup sex." - Jon Stewart, on the post-strike Oscars.
"If we stay the course, we can turn these movies around." - Jon Stewart, on the plethora of financially unsuccessful Iraq movies.
"Normally when you see a black man or a woman president, an asteroid is about to hit the Statue of Liberty." - Jon Stewart, being himself
"We made this film two years ago; we shot it on two Handycams. It took us three weeks to make; we made it for a hundred grand. We never thought we'd ever come into a room like this and be in front of you people." - Irishman Glen Hansard, who won best song, along with co-star Marketa Irglova, for Falling Slowly from their film Once
"In case you're wondering what we all do here during the commercial breaks, mostly we just sit around making catty remarks about the outfits you're all wearing at home." - Jon Stewart on advertisement breaks
"Thank you, Jon, for that kind introduction - you never cease to amaze me with your constant need for attention." - Award presenter and star of the US version of The Office, Steve Carell, responding to Stewart's introduction
"I think most of the people here are quite excited. There's not that many people that are over it, even if they're doing an impression of being over it." - Atonement star James McAvoy on acting cool
"I did celebrate - some running charades [party game], maybe a couple of drinks. I'm not going to lie." - Juno star and best actress nominee Ellen Page on turning 21 this week
PART TWO IS COMING SOON!...
