I had been hesitant about watching the Oscars this year, but was just dying to know who would win for sound mixing, so wound up watching them after all. Thanks to the miracle of digital video recording, we were able to pause the broadcast, play some Baldur's Gate, and then come back and zap through all the shout-outs and other assorted boring stuff. I was pleased to see "Lord of the Rings" walk away with so many awards, although I have to say I was disappointed that "Belleville Rendez-vous" didn't win for best song. (and what is it with all those lame ballads, anyway?)
