I am totally going to see the movie after those speeches, and the way those guys were hugging each other and fucking beaming on that stage. *GLEE*

As I said on Twitter, I kind of expected her to collapse during the director's acceptance, and it got worse with the best picture. In a good way! But I almost wanted to rush into my TV and give her a paper bag to breathe into.

I just love how she got maybe two feet backstage with her directing Oscar before they announced Best Picture, and in between camera flashes you could see her standing there stunned all, "What? What's going on? What's happening?"

The three happy boys w/ arms over shoulders in the back there OMG. Grinning down at her!

[spyderqueen.livejournal.com]

My friends and I think her acceptance speech should have been "SUCK IT, CAMERON!"

\o/ The last 10 minutes of the Oscars were just perfection. And the THL cast was seriously ♥-worthy.

Even 1-armed people are happy about her win! ;-)

I don't know how to put a little fist at the top of my raised arm! I kind of look like I'm saluting the Fuhr.

Um.....o/*?

I just discovered Bigelow in the last year after falling in love with "Near Dark". When I heard her name nominated for "Hurt Locker" I thought "too bad 'Avatar' is going to win everything" -- and then it didn't! YAY!
