It was WOW! I was so right in my predictions that Slumdog Millionaire will rip all the major awards: Best Picture, Directing, Adapted Screenplay, Cinematography, Musical Score, Original Song, etc. And I believe the movie deserves all of it. I was right with the acting awards too: Best Actress Kate Winslet for The Reader, Best Supporting Actress Penelope Cruz for Vicky Christina Barcelona, and Best Supporting Actor Heath Ledger (posthumous) for The Dark Knight. All of them I have predicted except for Best Actor Sean Penn for Milk, which was a pleasant surprise (mainly because I didn’t have a bet for best actor and I haven’t seen Penn’s acting for Milk). All I knew was that Brad Pitt won’t win it. And I was right again. I never thought Hugh Jackman would make a great host.  I didn’t know Wolverine could sing and dance either and I was glad he did coz he really can. And he was sooooo handsome too (without the beard). 

All in all it was a great show and I was happy with the results. The best thing about it is that I got to watch it at the comforts of our own living room (whilst vegging around) coz there are no classes today (Monday) because it’s a national holiday (People Power Revolution Anniversary). And still at best is that tomorrow is another no-school-or-work local holiday coz it’s the Cebu City Charter Day celebration. I really could get used to these holidays.

The bad thing is that my Internet connection at home has been totally crappy lately.
