I really hope it's The Social Network, it's a remarkable film on every level.

Looking good for The King's Speech!

So far it's won all the acting awards (except for Best Actress which went to Natalie Portman) and won best original screenplay.

Thanks for completely spoiling the BAFTAs for me, I wish I had never clicked on this now.

Oh I'm sorry!

I figure anybody watching the TV feed wouldn't be checking this thread. :oops:

Well done, 85% of you!
Go ahead, make my day - by visiting my blog: http://jacobthehobnob.wordpress.com/

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2012" club. I saw 32, which is rather delightful.. I beat Mr. Glass on free films but he narrowly inched me out on total films seen.

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2011" club. I saw 20, interestingly enough. My more realistic target was to see more free films than TheyCallMeMrGlass. I lost.
