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'll take Kenneth... I adored him in Henry V.

Tremendous movie. One of my all-time faves.

Just checked Helena's bio. She had the baby in 2003. Where the heck have I been.

Agreed. I think all men should have to wear fake eyelashes, pantyhose and high heels - just to see what it's like - OH... and a bikini wax - yeah! That's it!

I feel better already.

Well, the first 15-20 minutes I saw at that tavern were almost enough to make me return the beer I had drunk right there and then. That bad. The crowd (at the tavern) roared at first, but by the time I left they seemed to be on the verge of realizing how lame it all was.

The Office is the best comedy on television.

Don't forget Chris Matthews' Hardball.

I don't know why these guys don't know that jewel tones and rich colors look better on TV.

I guess the fashionistas love those more 'sophisticated' pale tones. I think they make everyone look washed out, especially on tv!

Too bad GL casted Keira Knightly as Padme's handmaiden in stead of Padme. Natalie Portman truly sucked in that triology and maybe Keira would have been better.

But Jon's kinda got that Johnny Carson thing going for him, where he can slide by the bombing of his jokes and still look fairly suave.
