Dustin Hoffman and Charlize Theron

gosh, he's a short fellow.  And she's quite tall.  That was the point of that Seth McFarlane joke, right?

Writing (Adapted Screenplay)
– “Argo,” Screenplay by Chris Terrio - The story was just insane. I hope it wins.
– “Beasts of the Southern Wild,” Screenplay by Lucy Alibar & Benh Zeitlin
– “Life of Pi,” Screenplay by David Magee
– “Lincoln,” Screenplay by Tony Kushner
– “Silver Linings Playbook,” Screenplay by David O. Russell

The levels of applause makes me think I guessed wrong on this one.  Uh oh...

Oooh... Chris Terrio wins.  Excellent!  Though, the more I hear about the truth (and all that the Canadians did), I kind of wish the true story is more public.

Writing (Original Screenplay)
– “Amour,” Written by Michael Haneke
– “Django Unchained,” Written by Quentin Tarantino - Tarantino has a way with dialogue and the story was, while not unique, entertaining. Nothing really happened in Amour and I was disturbed by the liberties taken with Zero Dark Thirty.
– “Flight,” Written by John Gatins
– “Moonrise Kingdom,” Written by Wes Anderson & Roman Coppola
– “Zero Dark Thirty,” Written by Mark Boal

And QT wins.  Spike Lee is not happy.  Quentin Tarantino is sometimes a joy to listen to.  He's so up all the time.  And, ends on a peace out.  Love it.
