[Endeavor]

I've heard "Sideways" is awesome - this from Charles Krauthammer (my personal fave). What'd you think?

[Katy_Katarina]

I hope Mick Jagger wins for his song......

Does anyone know if they showed him yet? I'm watching "E". Just turned it on though.....

[freedumb2003]

My wife hasn't called out from the other room yet -- any Fashion Faux Pas?

[Mo1]

Oh and Lisa on NBC ... she best be careful .. she might have a Janet Jackson moment with that dress

[cyncooper]

It's hard to freep and watch, but honestly (and I'm easy to please until someone posts a picture and points out the problems), I think everyone looks pretty fabulous tonight.

[Endeavor]

What a brown-noser you are. I'm sure your fellow ex-classmates hated you, too.

[YaYa123]

Don't tell anyone but the NBC red carpet show is much more intelligent than Joan and Melissa...if that's possible about Hollywood.

[RockAgainsttheLeft04]

That is not a valid point; rather, it sounds like a personal problem.

As I've consistently spoken of on the IMDB boards when they get to political, your kind of attitude shows your lack of good taste or discretion. I just don't understand people who cannot seperate an actor's personal politics from their non-political film roles are incapable of telling the difference between reality and fiction, or of understanding the wonderful world a really good film can transport the viewer to.

No hard feelings though; I just wish you'd take your antipathy towards Hollywood elsewhere tonight. A live thread of the Golden Globe ceremony, meant for fans or the show or of the nominated movies and TV shows, is not the place for personal political axe-grinding.

[UConnHuskyInTexas]

While I do think Jamie Foxx was very good in Collateral, I also think that Tom Cruise should have been nominated for Best Actor. If you remember, Denzel Washington won his Oscar for his "bad guy" performance in Training Day. Cruise was equally as good in his "bad guy" mode.

[Lil'freeper]

The gal in the pink Vera Wang could benefit from undergarments.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

I've heard "Sideways" is awesome - this from Charles Krauthammer (my personal fave).

What's it about?

[Katy_Katarina]

What channel is Joan & Melissa reporting on?

[cyncooper]

I have a bit before it airs here---I'll check it out.

Joan speaking the the Phantom actress.

[Lil'freeper]

Portia DeLesbian could do something more with her hair. Looks like she just got in from a volley ball game. Nice dress, tho.

[YaYa123]

Channel # 102 on Dish Satellite, but now NBC has started it's red carpet coverage, we got ourselves a choice.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

While I do think Jamie Foxx was very good in Collateral, I also think that Tom Cruise should have been nominated for Best Actor.

How violent was that movie?

[cyncooper]

The only antipathy that is getting annoying, frankly, is yours toward the rest of us.

My posts have been light-hearted and fun on this thread except to mention to you that other points of view are not verboten, so don't tell me to take anything elsewhere.

[RockAgainsttheLeft04]

That pic is just...um...amazing (*shiver*).

No wonder her hubby is as gay as a San Francisco hairdresser, and no wonder she can't see it.

[maggief]

[cyncooper]

TV Guide Channel.

From what I can tell, my cable is airing Joan and Melissa LIVE, but my E channel coverage does not have Star Jones yet, so I'm guessing it's tape delayed...not sure.
