Hey! You don't need a different computer for voting more than once. After voting, just close the page, clear the cookies and the history and then you can vote once again! No need to rush to the PC labs! Vote as many times as you want! I  have voted 10 times already! BBM is now way ahead at 44% and so is Ang(at 51%!!!). There is a close call between Heath and Joaquin... So VOTE! ;D

FH in Transamerica did a splendid job.  The best actress award should have gone to her, IMO. 

J Phoenix is leading Heath.  He was very good in 'Walk the Line', but hardly a match for Heath in BBM.  Where are all the Hoffman supporters?  Apparently, the critics are not voting here...

I shall vote again for BBM, Ang, Heath (and FH!!!!) when I get back home.  :)

Heath in BBM had NEVER gotten his due. 

Edit:  I shall attempt to clear my cookies.  But you never know what the evil office disallows... ;)

This is probably old, but Newsweek have online polls on what should have won best picture and who should have won best actor. I think you know what to do folks....

Best Picture - BBM currently leading with 44% :D

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11061443/site/newsweek/


Best Actor - Heath currently 1% behind Joaquin Phoenix :o

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11135796/site/newsweek/


EDIT: Thanks to hpv for spotting these

He will be eternally missed, but he will never be forgotten

Christopher Nolan, accepting the Best Supporting Actor Golden Globe on Heath's behalf.

He was, as an actor and a professional and a human being, one of a kind

Charles Roven, accepting Heath's BAFTA.

This award tonight would have humbly validated Heath's quiet determination to be truly accepted by you all here — his peers within an industry he so loved.

Kim Ledger, accepting Heath's Oscar.

Damn - voting is done on IP address rather than cookies.

Ah well, there are lots of computers at work - I'm sure I can, ahem, "borrow" a few of them briefly tomorrow ;D
