Sigourney Weaver attacks Oscar voters (Avatar didn't win Oscar because "Jim didn't have breasts")

Speaking of Oscar winners, I watched “Marty” the other night on AMC. A movie that would no doubt never get made these days. CGI and 3-D does not equal good film-making.

Saw that one too this past weekend on TCM. Good character driven storyline, enjoyed it very much. You are right, no movies like that now...which is why I watch the old movies more than anything else.

We’d better be careful, she might pull the self destruct switch and we’ll all be screwed.

Could have knocked me over with a feather when Frank Sutton showed up. Then it hit me, he and Borgnine went on to star in two of the biggest “miltiary comedies” of the 60’s (”McHale’s Navy” and “Gomer Pyle”).

Sigourney is also somewhat lacking when it comes to breasts.

Say what?

[catfish1957]

Yep, look like small c cups to me.....

[xsmommy]

they appear to have faded away....

Isn’t that Hugh Hefner on the right?

[onedoug]

No butt though.

You said it, brother!

[JohnnyP]

Those are pics of Sigourney in a wonder bra. Doesn’t count.

Sounds like someone wants to be (ex-)wife number nine!

God forbid some Brazilians get electricity.

Given the corruption and incompetence of the Brazilian government, they probably won't.

"Alien VXII?"

I believe you have a typo.

[Doogle]

yeah I do

Yo! Sigourney!

“Star Wars” [subsequently retitled Chapter Four: A New Hope”] didn’t win Best Picture in 1977, and Lucas didn’t win as best director. Compared to that movie, “Avatar” was junk. And, in it’s way, a derivative of “Return of the Jedi”, with the Smurfs standing in for the Teddy Bears.

Well Ms. Weaver, Jim’s are bigger than yours in any case.

Avatar didn’t win because it was a mediocre story surrounded by incredible special effects. I enjoyed it enough because of the 3D wizardry but it was far from the best movie. Personally I thought District 9 blew it out of the water as a film.
