As you can see there were no real big upsets and all the critics' favorites went home with the gold. There were no real standout moments from the telecast either, except for maybe when Ashton Kutcher presented the award for Best Screenplay Adaptation to George Clooney for Syriana and then George Clooney came up and slipped on the podium and cracked his skull open then started bleeding all over the pulpit. Ashton tore off a piece of his Versace jacket to stop the bleeding and accidentally exposed his left nipple causing a huge wardrobe malfunction controversy and then Tori Spelling accidentally sneezed in her seat and pooped out a little. Other than that it was pretty drab.
