To the surprise of none, The Social Network cleaned up, BUT Colin Firth stole Best Actor in a Drama, and that's pretty awesome. The Kids Are Alright was the only comedy or musical nominated that deserved to win that category, and it did. Alice in Wonderland won nothing, and I'm quite alright with it.

Now that all is said and done, what are your thoughts? Any major upsets? Business as usual? Will the Oscars play out much the same next month? Let us know in the comments!
