hi, was anyone else watching the iftas tonight? was wondering why they failed to show the best actor or best international actor categories? is it because cillian murphy wasn't there? it seems a bit odd that they left out one of the most importatnt categories of the night! cillian could have recorded a video message like helen mirren, esp. as the wind that shakes the barley and breakfast on pluto featured so prominently through the whole show? shame!

Gizmodeon

did anyone notice how you wanted to throw your remote at the tv every time that bloody same theme song went on every 5 minutes?
and what was with the fast forwarding of all those speeches?
I don't know a lot of the contenders, so I watched the show to learn
