Little Miss Sunshine for Best Picture. Filem ni aku puas hati. Takder komen tak puas hati or kecewa ke. Aku takder masalah dgn Little Miss Sunshine. A little film that shines. The Departed pon hebat. Babel filem yg berjaya bagi aku satu emosi yg kuat. Editing, sound design & cinematography for The Blood Diamond pon dasyat. I haven't watched Alfonso Cuaron's Children of Men. Bad DVD copy. Tapi aku confident mesti hebat. Y mama tu tambien still his masterpiece.
