Hey — it’s the day of the night of 1,000 stars as The Academy Awards are given out for another year of strong work.  Though I’m still bummed a bit by some omissions to the nominees (Ben Affleck, I feel your pain), this has shaped up to be a year with the potential to reward some richly deserving folk.

My full list of final thoughts can be found here — I hope you enjoy the show.  Check back tomorrow for my deconstructing of the big night with my reactions to the highs and lows of the ceremony!
