And with that, our ceremony comes to a close. We've laughed, we've cried, we've yawned. More important than these, though: we smiled. And that's what the forum awards are all about. We have so many wonderful people here and this site is filled with such great content that I only wish we could give an award to everyone. In fact, we can do that, and here it is:

Congratulations to all the winners, the nominees, and everyone else who makes this wonderful place what it is by virtue of being here! Thank you to the presenters, the performers and special guests, to ichabod and Joan, and to the skilled craftsmen who sculpted our golden statuettes: Luke!

Thanks for coming out, sitting down, waiting, watching, and participating, everyone! See you all next year! Good night!

Okay, show's over people, let's clear the room, clear the stage, and set up the cages, poles, ropes, and trapezes...I've got Cirque du Soleil here and they've got a show in less than two hours. Come on, people, move it, move it, move it!

Image

After-party is at Leo's house, where we can enjoy some fine dining, a rousing game of tennis, and a *special* room for those inclined to be a little frisky.

Image

Martinis and Handcuffs for everyone! :twisted: :D

Image

And Matthew, I've arranged for a private limosuine to take you and Leo to his house. It should take five hours for you guys to get there, use the time wisely as Leo doesn't realize his house is only two blocks from here...

THE AWARDS ARE OVER AND I HAVEN'T GOT A SINGLE NOMINATION?????????????????????

I think I just choked on the olive in my marti..... errrr... water! Yeah, that's it! My water!

OK people, the truth is, I wasn't allowed to be nominated this year. It was clear that I was going to be nominated for everything and therefore win everything, so I pulled out so you guys would have a chance :P

OK, so maybe next year..............

If not, I know where you all parked your cars..... and carpets...... and coaches...... and erm.... seagulls....

I'll be at the "after-show party" thread drinking anything that contains alco....... erm....... vitamins.

I just realized now that I was 21 years old when the ceremony started, and when it finished I had already turned 22. And they say the Oscars are long!

Congratulations Aaron for your UD Member of the Year award, it is well-deserved, and you will wear it well. Now, maybe we can get you to rewatch "Cars" and tell us how you really feel about this movie.

I want to! I'm waiting for that 2-Disc Edition we all know is coming, though. I'll see <i>Ratatouille</i> first, which I'm looking forward to.
