And they wonder why box office receipts are plummeting.
I've watched before too.....but usually to mock. What other profession is celebrated & awarded as much? I enjoy watching great films....I even enjoy a lot of bad movies like low budget horror flicks.....but who wins what award means nothing to me.
When the Oscars even consider a film or story such as Brokeback Mtn, echoed with Capote, they have successfully managed to insure a large segment of the viewing audience will never return to even tolerating the Oscars being reported, let alone shown on their television sets by simply switching to any other channel.
Me neither, I've got a quadruple coronary bypass, triple root canal and a hemorrhoidectomy scheduled instead, I'll be having too much fun to tune into the Acadamy BUTT Awards
That the top $$$ films do not necessarily get the top Oscars is not new. Frankly, in some years, that has been a good thing.

The thing we have to do is to boycott Hollywood movies. ALL OF THEM! Kids, adults, the whole bunch need to just stay home. "Just say no" to Hollywood. Send them a message that we, the public, the vast majority of the public, don't like the movies they are making. Until they quit making movies celebrating the homosexual lifestyle, nobody go to the movies.
They would get the point then.
That's a funny sentence.
"Crash" was the only one of the nominated movies that I saw. It utterly sucked. It was incomprehensible.
"Cinderella Man" was an excellent movie, but got shut out of all the major nominations. I think it got nominated for supporting actor and makeup.
Although I never watch artsy-fartsy Leftist awards, "Brokeback" is the one reason I WOULDN'T WATCH the KY Jelly awards tonight if I normally did. I'm not "into" sexual deviancy and its perverts.
Rented this last night and hubby and I really enjoyed this flick.
Tonight, in honor of the Oscars, hubby and I will NOT be watching ABC's coverage but will instead be watching Pride & Prejudice.

Is Brokeback Mountain as good as Sound of Music, My Fair Lady, A Man for All Seasons, Patton, the Godfather, or Braveheart?
What's wrong with these people???

They are just trying to tear down our culture. Good is bad, up is down, left is right, poop is art, etc. Typical tactic of a Marxist culture war.
The oscars and hollywierd, what a waste.
The fags can pound sand.
I think it's a guy who sings, "Oh I love trash!"
Liberal thinking and planning is so stupid and predictable. I AM NOT tuning in to the Oscars tonight on account of all the gay crap. Will be checking out Free Republic tomorrow as someone will post the ratings for tonight and hope Hollywood loses their ass. (pun not intended)
With Ramon Navarro and Francis X. Bushman?
