I was chiefly surprised by the "Closer" supporting wins. Though I called the Portman win after Owen won.
I also had swapped director and film. I was sure Million Dollar Baby would take film and Aviator would take director... there's been all kinds of buzz about Scorsese winning his first Oscar, and I thought M$B to be a far better film. I wouldn't rule out a split that way for the Academy, though.
Totally expected, but I was glad to see wins for Foxx and Sideways.
