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...

Ang Lee wins. I'm now guessing BB M will win the Best Picture.

If you don't know who McMurtry is, you need to read more. He's written some truly good stuff.

And to be fair, he hasn't stopped.

I like her and I'm glad her daddy is GOP. I just saw Walk the Line via NetFlix and I'm glad she won. I am not watching the Oscars.

I spent some early years of my childhood in Nashville and lived about a mile or two away from the Witherspoons. In fact, her brother was in my class in elementary school and in my carpool. If my memory serves, they didn't live in Belle Meade per se, but closer to Green Hills. I know she attended Harpeth Hall though which is an excellent all girls private school. The manners and niceties that she displays are her good Nashville upbringing!

Ang Lee, best director.

Sounds about right to me. Have you people actually *seen* the film?
