Call me a gullible slave to the movie industry, but so help me I actually watched much of the Oscars last night.

I regret those forever-lost brain cells.

The one bright spot was the NFB film Ryan coming through with a win in the Animated Short category; it is an exceptional film and shows what 3D computer animation is really capable of. Watch Ryan in its entirety at the NFB site (Warning: strong language in places).

(March 4, Edit: Alas, the NFB took the movie off the site. There’s still a clip available at the NFB.)
