"Brokeback Mountain," the story of two male ranch hands who become romantically involved, led all films with eight nominations for the 78th annual Academy Awards.
"Brokeback," based on a short story by E. Annie Proulx, picked up nods for best picture, best director (Ang Lee), best actor (Heath Ledger), best supporting actress (Michelle Williams) and best supporting actor (Jake Gyllenhaal). Its screenplay adaptation, by Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana, also received a nomination.

I'll bet ya that there's alot of older people out there who regularly watch the Oscar's to see Hollywood stars but, probably dont have a clue as to what the nominated movies are about. They may even watch the show to determine which movies to go see or, rent. But, once they become offended at Jon Stewart's opening monlogue and, then see Fudgepack Mountain getting all these awards, they will tune out in droves.
Just my opinion of course.
Uh-huh. Does anybody think that Heath Ledger & the word "Oscar" would ever appear in the same sentence if it weren't for the subject matter of this movie?
There are no real men left in Hollywierd, just gay men and violent punk addicts.
No-no, it's called Bareback Mountin'.
Proulx's book "The Shipping News" was a wonderful book. The movie was crap, though.
Then she, Proulx, that is, moved out west and her short stories became very, very strange and outre(appropriate word for Hollyweird).
But I can tell you for certain, I will not be watching the awards ceremony this year. My God, that my self-indulgence is difficult to abide.
Oscar bobs?
Just another proof of Hollywood's living in a 'bubble.' Nothing they make interests me in the least. . . a one who used to be a twice a week movie goer, I've seen NONE since
A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT in the theatre. . . and can find none in Nteflix to interest. It's now a very specialized product for a extreme leftist audience. Even more disgracefull that
the Gay Cowboy is the George Clooney / lies about E R Morrow movie. Truth means nothing to these cowboys.
Are they still called best actor and best actress ? And how do you tell the difference ? Shouldn't there only be one category for men and women since you no longer can tell the difference.
This is what we get for giving Hollywood our money.
You should have been here
during Lord of the Ring days!
Any Freeper who
poked fun at Frodo
got beat down worse than any
lesbian tongue lashing!
Scarey thought! We know how well that turned out.
Cheer up! Narnia
is still in the top ten, and
King Kong has fallen . . .
Whoreyweird has been captured by the homosexuals. They are (STEREOTYPE ALERT!), as we all know, very "creative" people. One would have to be "creative" to devise their favorite forms of sexual activities. Who else could conceive of shoving his...never mind!
No surprise here that "Brokebutt Mountain" is the "odds on" favorite to "suck up" numerous awards at the Oscars given that even the straights out there live in fear that the homos high up in the community will blacklist them for ANY expression that they hold to what the REST of America considers "traditional values."
Best way to deal with this -- this CRAP is to boycott it and all the rest like it to emerge from the cultural and moral black hole that Whoreyweird has become.
They may not grasp the depth of their depravity out there -- but they can STILL count.
One of my favorite all-time movies. I love when Ford goes in to put down the drunk horse and gets kicked out of the barn. I watch it at least 2-3 times a year I have it on tape.
Cowboy Love lyrics
Artist: Reverend Horton Heat
Album: It's Martini Time
I wanna go two steppin',
With a good lookin' big black buck,
I want him to come and pick me up in his chevrolet pick-up truck,
And when we're on the dance floor his hat will rise high above,
It's inter-racial cowboy homo kind of love.
Tall of course dark and handsome,
A gentlemen in every way,
A true cow poke in every sense of the word,
We really go to work in the hay.
A bronc bustin' bull ridin' tiger,
Yet peaceful as a dove,
It's inter-racial cowboy homo kind of love,
I know that us as a couple,
Will cause talk but I wouldn't mind,
Those cowboys will be pea green with envy,
When they see his cute behind.
That's why each night by the campfire,
I thank my lucky stars above,
For inter-racial cowboy homo kind of love.
Yeah I know that us as a couple,
Will cause talk but I wouldn't mind,
Those cowboys will be pea green with envy,
When they see his cute behind.
That's why each night by the campfire,
I thank my lucky stars above,
For inter-racial cowboy homo kind of love.
Kind of love,
Kind of love.
Does BM rank in the top 20 for box office revenues over the past six months? My guess is that it will end up as the least-watched movie ever to win several major Oscars. This is PC run amok.
Gay movie gets all the Oscars
Surprise........ surprise........ surprise.......
I have never watched the Oscars. Now never will.
Hollypornwood has just pushed the envelope way beyond anything they have done before and are doing all they can to make homosexuality "normal." It's so disgusting, I may never see another Hwood movie and certainly not this one!
