Best supporting actor:
Christoph Waltz for Inglourious Basterds. Maybe not surprising, but so deserved. A performance that will be remembered for years.
Best animated feature film:
Up, of course. Also expected and deserved.
Best song:
T Bone Burnett: "The weary kind" from Crazy Heart.
Best original screenplay:
The hurt locker. Excellent.

Logorama.
Best documentary short:
Music by Prudence.
Best live action short:
The new tenants.
Best make up:
Star Trek! And Ben Stiller looked great presenting as Na'vi.
Best adapted screenplay:
Precious. Not the kind of film I'd ever be interested in seeing, but hey, that guy seemed very nice.
Best supporting actress:
Mo'Nique for Precious. I cheered for Kendrick from Up in the air.
Art direction:
Avatar! Couldn't be anything else.
Costume design:
The young Victoria.
Sound editing:
The hurt locker.
Sound mixing:
The hurt locker. Bit of a surprise that Avatar got beaten in technical awards.
Cinematography:
Avatar!
Best original score:
Michael Giacchino for Up. Which I found somewhat depressing. But some people said that about the whole film. But hey I love his work for Lost
Visual effects:
Avatar of course.
Best documentary feature:
The cove. Seemed like an important point to make for the poor dolphins.
Film Editing:
The hurt locker.
Best foreign language film:
The secret in their eyes, Argentina.
Best actor in a leading role:
Jeff Bridges for Crazy Heart. He has been brilliant for decades, so can't go wrong with that. He actually talks like The Dude, man!
Best actress in a leading role:
Sandra Bullock. That's a bit of a surprise, she has not exactly been known for very deep roles. Too bad it's a football film.
Best director:
Kathryn Bigelow for The Hurt Locker, first woman to ever win this award. Has been doing a great job for years, so good for her.
Best film:
The hurt locker! Quite the surprise, but definitely worthy!
That's 6 awards for The hurt locker, 3 for Avatar, 2 for Up, Crazy Heart and Precious. Great results!

For an entertainment admin, you sure are narrow-minded about some quality films out there.
