It's says something when The Daily Show devotes 15 minutes to the Oscars and make's only one 15 second joke about Best Picture. He spent more time ragging on Swank's weird speech and Penn.
Now it's the Daily Show, huh? You DO realize that the OSCARS was the subject, not the movie that they've praised many times on that show, right? Every year, they devote a section of time to THE SHOW, because THE SHOW is a big story. It really looks like sour grapes are really hard at work here. If I had went with my heart last year, and said
Mystic River will win just because it was my favorite, I would be too embarrassed to keep reaching desperately for reasons to diminish the movie that you had been told for months would be the winner. Get over it,
Million Dollar Baby is the most loved of all of the Best Picture nominees, both by the people, and by the academy. Only the sour grapes crew is complaining or trying to belittle it.
