Disliked:
Sandra Bullock - blah
Mariah Carey - awful
Miley Cyrus - bad, too much like lingerie, too adult/sexy in a bad way
Zoe Saldana - mess, hated it
Jennifer Lopez - too bootilicious for me, like a bad wedding dress
Penelope Cruz - misshapen and unsymmetrical neckline
Maggie Gyllenhaal - hippie, like a beach coverup
Gabourey Sidibe - don't like the asymetry in the neckline
Charlize Theron - roses on breasts? a bit obvious. Also, the bottom of the dress is wrinkled
Tina Fey - don't like the asymetry in the neckline
Rachel McAdams - sits too low on the breasts, looks like it will slip off at anytime, combined with the thin material
Molly Ringwald - the purple one-shoulder. Kinda hated it.
Diane Kruger - no.
Undecided:
Queen Latifah - eh, the fit is good (she looks great), but I'm not a fan of satin, and it looks wrinked.
Kate Winslet - I generally like the gray/steely color, but it's too plain and too much Joan of Arc
Mo'Nique - I don't know. The fit is too tight, and I don't think I like the fabric.
Sarah Jessica Parker - another satin that looks too flimsy/nightgown-ish, although the embellishment at the neck is pretty and the shape is nice, and the material smooth.
Sigourney Weaver - boring
Amanda Seyfried - it's ok, quite nice.
Elizabeth Banks - too many ruffles at the bottom, but the color is lovely
Melanie Griffith - I actually dig the shiny black and the shape of it. The shrug throws me off.
Liked:
Vera Farmiga - really really liked the big ruffles, dramatic and awesome
Kristin Stewart - loved. It's black but shiny and wonderful with texture and shape. Very sexy.
Meryl Streep - elegant quiet, age-appropriate
Anna Kendrick - beautiful pale pink, romantic and dreamlike
Hellen Mirren - flawless, gorgeous
Demi Moore - not bad. If only the orange color of the dress didn't match her skin color.
Cameron Diaz - the overall look (hair, makeup) is fantastic, very beautiful/glamorous.
Mariska Hargitay - yes, nice color - I'm partial towards the gray/purple, and the heavy draping at the bottom. The neckline is securely in the right place. I like it.
Katherine Bigelow - good dress. (although a bit too tight) She looked like an actress, not a director. (that's a compliment)
Who did I miss?
My favorite is Vera Farmiga, and the dress I would wear (given the choice) is Kristin Stewart's. I want that one.

Except I loved Penelope Cruz's dress. I thought the asymmetry created drama (and made it less of a "look at my BOOBS" statement), and I thought the color was absolutely luscious on her.
And wasn't Kristin Stewart's dress navy? That's the Twilight chick right? It was a beautiful dress, and she looked great, but I thought it was a deep navy, not black. Made me like it better actually.
I thought Amanda Seyfried looked fantastic, but I'm undecided on SJP. It was at least different and interesting, and really looked rich...in short, everything I'd expect Chanel couture to be. I liked the color a lot. My problem with her was that her hair was awful and so distracting.
(Note that I didn't watch any of the broadcast and my opinions are based solely on pictures I've seen online since then.)
