Live Heckle-fest Thread of the 79th Academy Awards

25 February 2007

**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...

Nominations open for the following categories.

7. The Simon Cowell "What The H311 Is That" Award Also known as the Just Say No To Drugs Certificate of Achievement Given to celebs who listen to drug abusing stylists.
6. The All Washed Out Award For perfectly nice looking celebs sporting a sickly monochromatic look.
5. The Morticia Medal of Merit For perfectly nice looking celebs that think goth is cute. Also for unnatural and extremely artifical hair colors.
4. The Dude, Your Mother Dresses You Funny Award For male celebs that shouldn't be allowed to pick out their own clothes.
3. The Treasure to Trash Award For the perfectly nice looking celebs that choose to wear garbage bags. Also for the most creative use of recycleable materials in a garment.
2. The Sheer Overexposure Award For when next to nothing is left to the imagination.
1. The Bjork Award The outfit that causes such severe psychological trauma that viewers are scarred for decades or for outfits that resemble animals (whole or in part).

Nominations will be accepted throughout the evening for the following awards:

1. Lavender Oscar: For the individual(s) whose contributions to film and the events of the evening serve to further undermine traditional American values.

2. Red Oscar: For the individual(s) whose contributions to film and the events of the evening serve as a reminder of just how Anti-American the Hollyweirdos are.

3. The Britney: For the individual(s) whose contributions to film and the events of the evening serve to illustrate just how far down it really is to rock bottom.

You're not missing much. The best part so far was the Cadillac commercial with Andy Garcia.

Little Miss Sunshine...I HATED that movie!!!! Disgusting.

[mystery-ak]

Loved him in the orginial In Laws........sepentine Shell, serpentine....

[DCPatriot]

They memorize entire scripts, but they can deliver an acceptance speech without reading it?

He was very good in the movie though.....

If Ellen is going to wear a suit, she should have to wear a tie.

Ellen smoozing with the audience. She doesn't do it as well as Johnny Carson did.

[altura]

right at the end I thought he was gonna thank his kindergarten teacher, but he stopped just in time.

[silent_jonny]

I don't know if he likes me or not; most people don't.

I like you--you're one of the wittiest Freepers I know :)

Little Miss Sunshine...I HATED that movie!!!! Disgusting.

What's it about?

[DCPatriot]

Eddie deserved it...or Marky Mark.

Then you must not have seen Blood Diamond either. ;^)

[eleni121]

I didn't see it but I heard (from a credible source)it was terrible.

This award for Arkin is a sentimental award...a real shame since Eddiie Murphy deseved it.

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

I loved "The Saint" too. I'm a guy, and rarely pay attention to such things, but the chemistry between Shue and Kilmer was one of the things that made it such a good movie.

[woofie]

Lets all go into rehab after the party....

[altura]

er, is that a threat?

You know, Sundays are feast days and one is absolved, but I thought I would try to go straight through.

I really think I have an addiction to sweets.

[altura]

Well,thanks, jonny, that's one.

I think I will start a list!!!

[silent_jonny]

Here's Kidman looking thin and pale:

She looks like a ghost.

[Cecily]

Oh, please. That movie was okay, but there was nothing "best" about any part of it. I still can't believe it got nominated for Best Picture.

[altura]

Okay, I have to get the DVD of The Saint. In fact, I wish I were watching it right now (smile)

[Lil'freeper]

Let's hope Borat doesn't make his date laugh:

Thank goodness for double-sided tape.

Ellen smoozing with the audience. She doesn't do it as well as Johnny Carson did.

Carson was very good. I'm just thankful it's Ellen. I hope some genius doesn't ever decide to put Rosie up there. I really don't think I could watch the show. She's one of the most despicable humans out there--outside and in.
