LIVE: At the Oscars

Self

[SomeCallMeTim]

OK... I LOOKED, SEARCHED.... didn't find anything from Dotty. But, seriously... tonight's the OSCARS! Where's our Live Thread??

[SomeCallMeTim]

Cristopher Waltz, for Django Unchained wins the first "Biggie"... for Best Supporting Actor... the only nominated film I DIDN'T... and, WON'T see...

great start

[Las Vegas Ron]

Like I could give a crap.

[Perdogg]

Jennifer Lawrence should win an Oscar just for looking good.

[Technical Editor]

Do people still pay to see the garbage that Hollywood spews out?

[SomeCallMeTim]

Like I could give a crap

Enuff to comment! WOO HOO!!!

[Perdogg]

ping

[bmwcyle]

Oh good, live at the overpaid Obama supporting liberals.

[BenLurkin]

Brooklyn just came back to take the lead from the Grizzlies. 5:30 to go

[TaMoDee]

Ditto.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Boring...

[SomeCallMeTim]

We're ALL pulling for her to win here in Louisville... So excited! We may burn some cars and riot if whe wins! ;-)

I am more interested in the Foreign Films, Hollywood still hasn’t made a film as good as “The Lives Of Others” for quite awhile.

[nutmeg]

I’m watching... Didn’t think there would be a live thread... Lots of the FReepers who used to contribute on those fun Oscar threads are long gone, I fear...

[mnehring]

The Walking Dead is on... but enough about Sally Field

[SomeCallMeTim]

Do people still pay to see the garbage that Hollywood spews out?

yes... Lots...

I'm mainly interested to see if the new server can handle a LIVE THREAD?

[Sarah Barracuda]

Rich liberals all in a room kissing each others ass telling everyone else how they need to pay their “fare share””

[freedumb2003]

I think MacFarlane insulted everyone in the audience in his opening (but note obozo and politics were off the list).

That was worthwhile.

Loved that film... Zero Dark Thirty is right there with it. Outstanding film

[dfwgator]

Like American Idol(atry) threads, the related FR threads are better than the real thing.

[HokieMom]

I am watching because I loved both “Argo” and “Les Miserables.” The movies were the best this year than I can remember.

[SomeCallMeTim]

I hear ya... been AWHILE since we had ANY chance at a LIVE THREAD around here...

I just hop DollyCali hasn’t excluded me from her Private Party... she always did it up right!

Thanks for the ping! I’m not watching, but will follow here.

[Perdogg]

Here is an article about the costumes in Argo

[SomeCallMeTim]

I LOVED Argo... think it will win Best Picture, but, I HATED Le Mis.... the singing was just TOO AWFUL for me to bear... other than Jackman, and a couple of others...

Silver Linings Playbook was prett good... if a little light.

[HokieMom]

Now a tribute to 50 years of Bond music. Goldfinger now being sung by Shirley Bassie.

[nutmeg]

Live Oscars thread here if you’re interested...

[mass55th]

Haven’t seen any of them, and can’t think of any, other than Zero Dark Thirty that I’d even watch down the road.

[SomeCallMeTim]

And boym does Shirley look O L D.

[Borges]

There’s plenty of good films every year.

[Ingtar]

Finlandization (Finnish: suomettuminen; Swedish: finlandisering; German: Finnlandisierung) is the process by which one powerful country strongly influences the policies of a smaller neighboring country, causing the smaller country to become like Finland was perceived by many in the West to be during the Cold War.

In other words, why celebrate the enemy?

[HokieMom]

My family just commented on how GREAT she looks! ;^)

[dfwgator]

There’s plenty of good films every year.

And then there are the ones Hollywood puts out. ;)

[catfish1957]

Surprised a thread has been created for that liberal decadent cesspool known as hollywood. Our best response to these bastards are disdain, and withholding “all”, repeat all money from them.

[nutmeg]

Wow, Shirley Bassey was awesome! Not bad for 76 years old...:-)

[Borges]

Celebrating the Arts is bad?

[SomeCallMeTim]

In other words, why celebrate the enemy?

Easy... watching movies puts my wife "in the mood"... It's a sacrifice I make, for the greater good! :)

It's entertainment, dude....

[funfan]

Hahaha

[SomeCallMeTim]

We saw the short films this year.. the live actions were ALL good..

I liked the Somali one

[hosepipe]

Very painful to watch... worst ever...

[Revolting cat!]

Why, don’t you want to celebrate the best entertainment vehicle products of the year?! Even artichoke growers, to take one example, have their yearly ceremony celebrating their bidnyz!

[SomeCallMeTim]

Ah... in the one that won, the little girl STOLE it... she should be getting the award.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Good question:

To the extent they are arts, that is good.

The problem is, mostly they are simply leftist propaganda.

That is the problem.

They are only half the arts.

So really, nothing.

[funfan]

She is in her 70’s spring chicken she aint.

[WashingtonSource]

Innocente, documentary short film

[WashingtonSource]

She could hardly sing “Goldfinger” — it was embarrassing.

"Do people still pay to see the garbage that Hollywood spews out?"

I think the last time I went to a theater to see a movie was with my son (aged 42), to see "Captain America." We have a drive-in not far from us, and during the summer we'll go. They show double features, and sometimes triple features.

[SomeCallMeTim]

The Paper Man won Animated Short... but really.. all of them were pretty weak this year. The only one I really liked was the Maggie Simpson one, The Longest Day Care

[Mortrey]

Haven’t watched since they (in the audience—I’m talking to YOU, Nick Nolte!) gave the cold shoulder to Elia Kazan.

Artistic talent means nothing-politics rule.

In other words, that was the year it became sickeningly obvious that commies infest hollywood.
