I'm sure he'll cry himself to sleep on the $609,493,825 pile of cash he made off of it too.

"It's a little weird to trash the establishment, and then to come knocking at the establishment's door during awards season." That's not Mel knocking, buddy, that's you farting while your head's up your keister

Who really cares. Mel's rewards will be in Heaven, and nothing here on earth will be anything close to what God has in store for Mel.

I wasn't aware that Mel was wanting a nomination. I do know that MM would sue the Academy's pants off if he didn't get a nomination.

A sizable portion of which he recently gave to numerous hospitals including Cedar Sinai. If that doesn't tell you how "anti-semitic" he is I don't know what will/ sarcasm tag.
To: Paul Atreides
"A lot of older Academy voters, who are largely Jewish, refuse to even see this movie," says one Oscar-campaign vet. "There's a level of animosity toward this film that is very real. When I talk to the members, I hear it over and over and over again." Pathetic.

I teach film courses and I tell/show the students that the very best films and directors have never gotten awards.
I will be showing FahrenHYPE 9-11 in a few weeks as an example of a documentary...I don't know if I should show it before or after the elections...any advice anyone?

"But,says one Academy member, "If Kerry loses, it (F 9-11) gets nominated as a big 'f--- you' to Bush."
This from the high and mighty in Hollywood. Truly a class act.

"
I quit watching as well. I don't remember the last time I saw the Oscars."Me too!
:The Oscars are just a cheap showcase for the gliteratti of Hollywood to entertain themselves for one night, anyway.
I can't, for the life of me, see why anyone out in the real world would waste time watching it.

It supposedly went away the year that the Supreme Court dictated that sodomy was a God given right.

But, if Cheney says it to Leaky Leahy, it's the end of civilization as we know it.
