Frankly I don’t really care all that much about the Oscars. Who wins, who loses, and what they are “wearing” means very little to me. Sure, I liked that Martin Scorsese finally nabbed a Best Director Oscar, and that “The Departed” won Best Picture, thus agreeing with me that it’s the best movie of the year. But then again, the Oscars are bloated, overlong, and basically bores the crap out of me. Anyways, I know some of you actually care about it, so here is your big list of 2007 Oscar winners. Read on…
