She just doesn't do anything for me. She's model pretty, not pretty pretty and when it comes to ogle-value the latter is the only thing that matters much to me. I'm completely straight and Daniel Craig was still the visually more interesting thing on stage for me.

I'm pretty sure that was intended as a joke. He listed all of the shorts categories as surprising, meaning, I believe, that nobody knows anything about them. But he was a very annoying man, is he someone I should have recognized?

The shadow puppet people were generally a waste of time but the Snakes on a Plane one was cool.

I think historically the minor awards have been a place for the academy to gets its political groove on. No Man's Land was nowhere near the best foreign language movie of its year but it had a good "war is stupid, can't we all get along" theme.
