HAS ANYBODY SAID IT YET? BOYCOTT THE OSCARS (Oscars Live Thread)
3-4-06 | freedom4me

Posted on 03/05/2006 1:43:20 PM PST by freedom4me

I suppose on this thread it goes without saying, but I'll say in anyway...BOYCOTT THE OSCARS tonight.

I want the ratings for this year's program go into the toilet (where most the nominated movies belong). I won't waste my money to see the films, my electricity to watch the Oscars, or my time watching to witness Hollywood's self-adulation fest.

Pass it on...

I'm pretty sure the worst movie of all time is Manos, the Hands of Fate. God I miss mystery science theater.

When half of your award show is dedicated to montages of much better films than the ones nominated, you're in trouble. "We're gonna need a montage..." /sings

Also, Eric Bana is hot hot hot.

What's alarming is the number of perverts who went to see the film.....used to be there were just a few in the "closets" where they belonged.

Their only supporters are maybe one or two family members and their "significant other". Everyone else thinks they're gross, nasty people. What a load to carry around.

I'm a dollar movie fan myself. Harry Potter and Pride and Prejudice are there this week. I'll probably go see them both.

Gotta agree with you there... Eric Bana. Yum Yum. Was great in Munich and I loved him in Black Hawk Down and Troy.

Just saw he made a movie with Sarah Jessica Parker. I wonder if there were any rumors about those two.

$1.75 at theater<$3.50 at home

Plus, it's better popcorn than I have at home.

I want to see them on the big screen. Anyway, the dollar movie is cheaper than renting the DVD.

I think her brunette color would look better with this dress.
