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...

"Edith died? She's the only part of "All in the Family" I can still tolerate on TVLand. The rest is liberal propaganda."

Edith was Jean Stapleton. She's still alive. Maureen Stapleton played in movies such as Cocoon, The Money Pit, Bye, Bye Birdie, etc.

Ever see the movie The Freshman....Kirby is in it....

I've seen parts of it. He played Matthew Broderick's friend, I think.

LaToya London--she was eliminated a week before or after Jennifer, and Elton John called Idol "racist!" LOL

Yeah. I remember that. The man is such an arse.

It would have been awkward if he didn't win this one since they got Coppola, Lucas and Spielberg all together to present the award...

You're probably right, but Meathead always seemed to get in the better jibes against Conservatism and they always made Archie out as a bigot.

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

Me too. I've loved O'Toole for years. I really like him in "HIgh Spirits."

jonny, I gave up at 2 hours and 20 minutes

Wuss! ;)

I might look at the montage you mentioned and see what you're talking about.

It was certainly an odd selection of clips.

He was a bigot. But not out of hatefulness just out ignorance. He became a better person as the show went on. And Meathead was often shown to be a hypocrite.

You're right...they did take shots at both characters. It wasn't just a cut and dried thing.

I know, but I had to use my laptop to sit in front of the big tv, and I'm just not that comfortable and it was on a table that was too tall and it was a strain and ... and...and...

B-b-but I thought the results were "sealed" and closely guarded by those Waterhouse guys...!

I don't know if I like this voice-over lady that barks the trivia about the winners once their name has been announced, rather ungraceful delivery.

Diane Keaton looks very good.
