please people that's the goal of voting: the majority win and if you are not agree well obviously you were less than the majority.
At least the winners are movie we do have heard of (not like Cannes' winner)

4 of the things I voted for won, and one of them was Titanic...

Disappointed Bourne didn't get a nom for best soundtrack.David Yates best director...?!This reeks of block brit voting!Put aside your patriotic tendencies!Vote for the best...Hot Fuzz, James McAvoy and 28 Weeks Later deserved winners though

C'mon 'hughjass', we all know that "Ikea Knightley" is Mark Kermode's phrase which is only funny when he says it and isn't even true. I'll admit that many things she does are rubbish, but she can act when properly directed, as Joe Wright has showed us twice now.

Seriously who reads Empire nowadays if these are the winners that have been voted for? Best acting awards to Atonement? Best directing for Harry Potter?
I'm waiting to be told this is all some sick joke being played on me

Rob Brydon this time round.

I have to say the way the awards were presented were a bit strange. Showing the films/actors up for the said award and then having the person to read out the winner get up out of their seat and move through the crowd.

Those guys must have a lot of friends, cos they sure didn't have the best film.

Speed was awesome and should definitely have won - and Dambusters should have been a finalist.

I am from the United States and I agree with the Empire readership about the winners. My favorite TV shows, movie, and music are from the UK. I plan to subscribe to your magazine. I hate Hollywood blockbuster movies with a passion. I am so glad James McAvoy won Best Actor. He is so talented and deserves to win. I was really upset about Joe Wright gettting snubbed at the Oscars. They are a joke anyway. Atonement is by far my favorite drama movie. I am also glad that "Hot Fuzz" won best comedy. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are my favorite comic duo. I am looking forward to seeing him as Scotty in Star Trek XI. I have "Hot Fuzz" and Shaun of the Dead" in my DVD collection and just ordered "Atonement" from Amazon.com.
