Favorite Female: Reese Witherspoon. Gorgeous from head to toe.
Favorite Male: Daniel Craig. It doesn't get much hotter.

I give Ellen two thumbs up for a great job hosting.

I think Helen Mirren is friggin' hot. Just a class act.

What the hell is wrong with Meryl Streep? Did she just attend a Southwestern Craft Show down the street???

Phillip Seymour Hoffman needs some help. Seriously. He was looking like that whacked out Nick Nolte mug shot -- get a comb and throw away that crack pipe, damnit!

And once again, Sally Kirkland proved that she's a complete nut case.
WTF???

I just watched her on the Barbara Walters special. She said she doesn't wear slacks because (in her most proper English accent) "I have an enormous bottom". She's great!

I couldn't figure him out either. From the back it almost looked like he was trying to grow dreadlocks.

I'll never forget the year she climbed over the barriors to get to the red carpet. How does she get in?

Freeeeking Meryl Streep was unbelievably gorgeous!!!

I thought I was going to faint during the Dreamgirls number. Beyonce Knowles in "Listen" was other-****ing-worldly.....

Were any other singers out there stunned at how Jennifer Hudson did the high harmony on that deal?? (I ain't yet seen the film- kill me)

Peter O'Toole shoulda won, but Forrest Whittaker had the best acceptance speech of the night.

The Foley Choir was great- hello, people- talent. Craft. Dedication.

I thought they looked cute together.

I love me some Diane Keaton, it was a lovely surprise to see her.

I think Ellen did a great job as host. I hope she'll be invited back. Loved the Al Gore line and her interactions with Scorsese and Eastwood in the audience.

Helen Mirrern - simply gorgeous and a class act.

Helen, Reese and Cate Blanchett all looked beautiful. Kate Winslet looked great, but I didn't care for the mint green color. Same for Beyonce. And how about Diane Keaton?!?! That's the best I've seen her look in years. As for the guys, my votes go to Daniel Craig and Leo (who has never been that attractive to me, but he looked great.) And Ken Watanabe is incredily sexy.

I haven't seen The Last King of Scotland, and I thought Forrest Whitaker's speech was wonderful.........but I felt so bad for Peter O'Toole. He looked crushed.

And I'm with Towie - Beyonce in "Listen" rocked my socks.

Yep - and JH has a power house voice as opposed to Beyonce, who has a great voice with tons of power, but it is more pop than JH's Broadway Belter, Southern Baptist revival showstopper. Yet, both worked in this song and there was no upstaging between them. It was a delight to watch.

I know. AND - he kept mumbling while Keaton was reading the nominees. He looked a little sick if not whacked out drunk, which arguably one might have to be in anticpation of waling out with Annie Hall come 2007 a la Lola with the same tired drag, which Keaton THANK GOODNESS left at home. Actually, I thought she looked splendid.

I went for the little miss, although I think best masculin leading role should have been:

Garrison Keillor in A Prairy Home Companion.

He looks fantastic. Also it seems that slicked back is the latest trend in men's hair. Clooney and DiCaprio wore it well.

She could soooo play her!

Also, I have been slicking my haor back since the 80's -- so Clooney is following me, as it should be

OMG, I can't believe I'm the only person that has voted for Babel. That was a flawless film. The stories were woven together so perfectly while still being entirely believable. Has no one seen it??

It's the dullest one I can recall for a while.
