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...

Yes but they slapped it on "TransAmerica".

Just wanted to post that this is the worst Oscar telecast I've ever seen. Jon Stewart is totally bombing!! And I mean totally. He isn't funny, boy what flop sweat. Ben Stiller wasn't even funny - thank the lord for Dolly.

I'm wondering now if Jon is going to end up WORSE than Whoppi (which would be hard).

And the music playing over Clooney? LOL

It's our own 'cute' way of boycotting.

Needs a breast lift, looks like some of those African women whose breasts are depleted from too much breast feeding and no bras.

No, John is elegant and funny compared to Whoopi.

She was the worst ever.

Does anyone remember Bob Hope as MC? He was funny.

There was a time in the history of civilization when "entertainers" were considered the dregs of society, funny how things change.

Funny you should mention that. I was reading a history on Edger Allen Poe, and
that was brought up many times. EAP was raised by a family in Richmond
that made him aware of that very fact.

Sorry for the interruption......8^)

As soon as I heard the word "Jesus" I knew she was losing the award :)

Also, I'm kind of worried about poor Keira Knightley having to sit next to Jack Nicholson all night. He looks like her dirty old uncle.

Ooh, and Stewart just angers the Scientologists. Cruise and Travolta make plans to meet him at his limo after the show...with a tire iron. And a lawsuit.

Your grammar and spelling is always exemplary MM. We'll understand that you've been under the weather.

Hope you are better...and your mom too.

Tom Hanks seems like a nice guy. Probably deluded politically, of course.
