In case you missed the 82nd Annual Academy Awards ceremony last night, here are a bunch of the acceptance speeches. If you want more context, here’s all the winners, and here’s our detailed live blog. In case you were under a rock, “The Hurt Locker” was the night’s big winner taking 6 awards in total including Best Picture and Best Director. Some of these clips are a little ghetto, but deal with it, that’s all that’s out there at the moment. We’ll update this post if better quality clips come along or more of them.
