Yeah....... Oscars were alright. Got 6 out of the big 8, and (not counting stuff I didn't see, like foreign films and documentaries) 12/15, so 80%. Not bad.

Jon Stewart hosting was nice, and while his jokes were funny, most of the actors' weren't - especially Ben Stiller's.

This article pretty much sums up my opinion on 'Crash' taking best picture. Losing cinematography was a big blow to Brokeback (pun intended?), so it was a bit foreshadowed. But come on, the only thing Crash really won was Writing and Editing, both of which I think were "gimmes." No director, no actors, and no nominations in half the other catagories. Sigh.

Crash is surely much easier to watch, but I still stand by saying Brokeback is a much better film. Again, see the article linked above.
