Live Heckle-fest Thread of the 79th Academy Awards
25 February 2007

Posted on 02/25/2007 2:00:05 PM PST by Lil'freeper

**WARNING: GRAPHICS INTENSIVE THREAD**

You love them, you hate them, you love to hate them. Hollyweirdos, those wacky leftists who gather together for the annual group hug known as the Oscars. And how fun it is to heckle and razz them as they parade down the red carpet posing for the cameras, granting vapid interviews to equally vapid interviewers, too serious about making their political statements and social commentaries to realize the joke's on them. No one watches their movies. Just look at box office receipts. The money makers are the family films - the ones take it easy on social commentary and political statements. No one gives a flip about their art. They are such sad cliches - dozens of little emperors who have yet to realize they're wearing no clothes. And that's why they're SO FUN!

Speaking of clothes...

I'm watching the SVU marathon on USA because I'd barf if I put it on any awards show. But I always liked Altman and Mako. Not quite as familiar with Jean Stapleton.

Bruno Kirby made a good 'best friend' in the movies.

I haven't seen any of these movies, but I'm sure Helen Mirren deserved that Oscar for "Queen". She is an amazing actress...

Fantasia is still just an opening act for bigger names. She can't sustain a tour of her own.

And last week she performed on Idol's semi-finals. That's usually reserved for the previous season's runner-up. Not a winner from three years ago.

Looks like Fantasia is struggling.

That was Jean on All in the Family! Maureen died and is of no relation to Jean.

LOL...then I'm confused...should I just say someone named Stapleton that was famous for something?

Don't worry. Borges knows everything. Just like my son-in-law.

It's not a bad thing, and he will correct us, in a nice way, if we make mistakes.

It would've been interested. He just got a "lifetime achievement" and thought it was too early.

No surprise it went to Forrest. I couldn't stand him in The Shield.

Well, I'm sure he was good in it, but I was hoping for O'Toole.

Borges was very nice not to beat me about the head and shoulders...and I don't mind being corrected when I'm in error.
