Every last one of the Oscars has been handed out, even those that go to all the geeky technical categories (in the words of one of the worst Oscar hosts in history, "Thank you nerds"). And we were there planted on the couch watching every last pitiful minute of it. In case you missed it, Inception was the big winner in the technical categories taking home Oscars for visual effects and sound, The social Network got a win for its score, but the big winner of the evening was not surprisingly, The King's Speech which took home four trophies in the major categories, including Best Director, Picture, Screenplay, and Actor.
