Billy Crystal is a has-been never-been that wasn't even funny.

The last I checked the only one running for President that admitted being a crackhead is Obama himself.

Dark Knight = Gingrich

American Psycho = Mittens Romney

Charismatic Crack Addict = Ron Paul

My take on it.

While on the subject, IMHO Christian Bale gave a stunning performance in American Psycho. If you consider yourself an avid movie watcher, you should see it. The guy is friggin intense.

The “business card” scene is just plain surreal.

Roughly forty-five minutes in, Crystal was true to his word taking a cheap shot at the Republican presidential candidates

The entire theater was filled with unquestioning liberal drones. The only thing that set Crystal apart was that the work he had done on his face was much worse than average.

We are in total agreement. I never liked him, and that was before he thought politics is warranted at an “non / partisan” awards ceremony,

Oh... and that goes for Bill Maher, who also has no talent. It would seem they appeal to those who hate American principals

It was once said that all you need are 10 million people who like you and you are a star. I guess there are that many libs.

American Psycho is Paul (acts like it)
Charismatic Crack Addict is Romney (acts like it)
Dark Knight (which is not even a negative) can be the other two.

I don’t think it was meant to be positive but it end up being true at least with two.

Billy Crystal does not have much of a sense of humor when the digs are directed at him:

You are on the mark. Billy's jokes were inept, regardless of the thrust, all night long. To anyone who can remember the consummate manner in which the late Bob Hope handled himself at the Oscars over many performances, the contrast was very stark indeed.

to be sure, Hollywood is full of intellectually very, very confused types. This shows up in so many ways, the point should be obvious. Unfortunately, Hollywood has played a major role in undermining respect for traditional American values, ever since 1950, at least. The use of images to misrepresent reality can be very effective. (See Persuasive Use Of Images.) Of course, that assumes you are dealing with intelligent Leftists. Billy Crystal may be a Leftist, but he lacks that other quality.

It will be interesting to see if he is back next year.

I bet there’s not much agreement on which candidate is the Dark Knight, which is an American Psycho, and which is a Charismatic Crack Addict, according to Crystal and those who share his ideology.

Bringing to mind the old saying, “If you have to explain a joke, it’s not funny.”

He was introducing someone, who must have been in those movies. It was the only anti pubbie comment all night so I did not take offense.

Sounds like he’s describing obama to a tee (except for the “American” part).

His career is only mostly dead.
