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 still get to grinding my teeth when I think about the snubs of Saving Private Ryan and Goodfellas.

No, Jon will probably get panned by the media, but he did all right.

Why is that homely chick sticking her chest out? She's what my brother would call a "Pirate's Delight"; a sunken chest!

I disagree. The guy who was supposed to be a racist turns to be a good guy and the guy who was the liberal cop turns out to be a jerk.

I was the same way, which is why I looked forward to "Streets of Laredo," but trust me, it's a major disappointment. Better to go on imagining yourself what happened to the characters. You'll probably do a better job than McMurtry did.

I'm kind of proud......I haven't seen any of the movies.

I hope their ratings are extremely low tonight. I've been watching College basketball all night....much more enjoyable.

Just means I didn't bother to watch the Oscars, and lagged behind in the postings...

Must learn to skip to the end prior to posting!

I wonder if anyone will go see Crash now? It still doesn't sound like a movie I would like at all.

Crash is an acquired taste, and just grows on you.

So does toe fungus.

reasonably...for Hollywood....montage on race...the good the bad and the ugly

and it's not just bad crackers for a change

only the ending where the thug sees redemption seemed fake to me.

It has been on DVD for sometime now. I'm sure rentals will pick up tremendously.

But you know what? Those who don't have TV access REALLY appreciated your and everyone's comments about the show. Thank you!
