2010 Oscars--Did You Watch?

Hey, girls! Did you catch last night’s 82nd Annual Academy Awards, celebrating this year’s best in movies and filmmaking?

Here’s a recap of the most memorable Oscar moments according to us:

As huge Avatar fans, we thought Ben Stiller’s real-life Avatar costume was incredible. 

And congrats to Kathryn Bigelow for becoming the first woman to ever receive an Oscar for Best Director! Here’s a quote from her acceptance speech:

“I’d just like to dedicate this to the women and men in the military who risk their lives on a daily basis in Iraq and Afghanistan and around the world. And may they come home safe.” Kudos to Ms. Bigelow for showing her appreciation to our heroes in the military! 

And finally, Miley made her first appearance last night on the Oscar stage, along with other young stars like Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Zac Efron. So cool.
