Clooney was nominated for Directing Good Night and Good Luck but he won best supporting for Syriana
The part that confused me was when Ang Lee was complaining about Brokeback not winning best picture... he said something about it being the highest grossing movie or something like that. It confused me because in the information that I can find it says that worldwide it was Harry Potter, and in America it was Star Wars. Did anybody else hear him say this... or have I finally lost it?

It had the highest gross of those nominated. Not that that should be a criterion; Ang Lee should know that griping about awards you weren't even up for is poor sportsmanship. He won the Director award; Best Picture goes to the Producers.

I only watched the Oscars, because Jon Stewart was hosting. I really haven't cared about the Oscars for a decade. However, that being said, "Good Night and Good Luck" does look interesting.
Also, I was, secretly, hoping Jon would end the airing with a "Let's check in with Stephen Colbert at The Colbert Report."
