82nd Academy Award Winners

A huge night for Kathryn Bigelow and The Hurt Locker as she took home Best Director and the movie took home both Sound awards, Best Screenplay and Best Picture.  Avatar won most of the other technical awards like Visual Effects and Cinematography.  The acting categories were not really that surprising except for Sandra Bullock, who won Best Actress, but she’s also the Worst Actress as well so I guess they cancel each other out.  Check out all the winners below and definitely check out the transcript of our live blog for more thoughts.
