**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...

Tonight's Convenient Truth Weather Forcast:
I'm in misery right now because I gave up sweets for Lent.
Best Supporting award coming up.
Did Jesse Jackson just do a voice-over for the black man accepting the award for Dreamgirls?
The soldiers are just as brave now.
I can attest to that!
I'm rooting for Hudson.
I saw Flags of Our Fathers this week. I didn't think it was all that good.
I don't know - did it have a strange beatnik rhyming quality to it?
Alan Arkin wins best supporting actor.
I agree. Just read "Ghost Soldiers" by Hampton Sides to get an idea how cruel the Japanese were.
Arkin win for Little Miss Sunshine.
Alan Arkin....Little Miss Sunshine!
Couldn't do it myself. Best of luck to you!
ROTFWLMAO
"At these fragmented times"
WTF?
Did anyone see that movie? It's one of the few I'd like to see.
Alan Arkin---give me a break!
Eddie deserved it...or Marky Mark.
I thought for a minute they'd dug up Rod Steiger and put him in the audience.
Yay! I'm a big fan of his - from Freebie and the Bean to Escape for Sobibor to Little Miss Sunshine - comedy, drama, whatever. Just a terrific character actor.
And his son, Adam, is a hottie.

Well in case you don't make it, it's been nice conversing with you on this thread:)
Enterainment audiences are. Very few non-childrens films get a big audience these days.
