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...

You do not know the meaning of the word bad until you have seen a movie by either Andy Milligan or Jerry Warren.

I think we DID know then. But it was packaged as "What's ONE little bad word?" To be followed by extreme nudity, f- as a noun/verb/adjective/conjunction, bloodgoreguts, toilet humor, and now, gay as a hero. That's all the left needed and wanted, one little foot in the door..that's all they ever want. And one inch at a time, they've driven this country just one exit from Hell.

I guess if you make a movie that is warm and fuzzy and family-oriented these people will not even bother to watch.

Yeah he joined a religious cult and was sober from 1990 on but he did so many drugs and alcohol he could not overcome it. He met and married a woman in that cult and she is now a widow. Don't know if they both still attended the London Church of Christ or not.

I keep bringing it up because I don't think I have ever seen someone win an acting award and not thank anyone but themselves. It was truly marvelous.

WHY are these people so ga-ga over Clooney? He is so self-centered and rude.

Because he's gay - and they love gay.

Brokeback Clooney... vomit.

Regardless, it was the result of years of tobacco usage, compounded by alcohol abuse.

Lady in the Water.

That one looks really interesting. The previews don't really tell you much, however.

Besides they all deserve a better tribute than this tripe

Agree.

I noticed Eddie Albert got 1 quick screen as a tribute, whereas others got 2 or 3 screens.

50 cent has some very suggestive lyrics in his songs.

Hilary Swank must have spent so much on her dress she couldn't afford to have her hair done.
