I ususally end up watching the Oscars although I rarely go to a movie. Some of not going to see a movie is because we have small kids, some of it is because of the price, but mostly I don't go because they keep churning out crap, and I also have trouble separating the actors' spew in real life from their roles.

Funny he mentions 1993 because 1994 was about the year I stopped going to see movies. 2005 we saw one movie at the theater--March of the Penguins. There are two I would like to see on DVD--Downfall and The Great Raid.

I do like the live FReeper Oscar thread making fun of how people look and what they say--lots of fun. So I'll probably tune in again this year and have more good times with my fellow Hollywood hating conservatives.

As has been noted in the past the Oscar telecast is the gay superbowl. This year more so than ever.

Both of them are well worth the time. I saw them both in the theater last year. While waiting to get into The Great Raid we were treated to the ranting of a couple of '60s libs carrying on about the evils of the Iraq war. They were looking forward to seeing "Raid" because it portrayed a bad side of America, our failure to rescue the POWs sooner. I reminded them that their boy FDR was the president and his priorities were elsewhere during that era.
