[Not A Snowbird]

LOL! I liked her. "I'd like to thank everyone who had anything to do with this."

[mystery-ak]

"Serpentine! Serpentine!" :)



That's Mike's fav part of the film and he says that all the time.....................rut roh.....Tom Cruise

Knowing a little about how Scorsese works I doubt that Jack sleepwalked.

[beaversmom]

That is good. She does sort of favor the Kerry girl.

[Alkhin]

Im sorry!! Li'l !!! Didnt mean to be a party pooper...The mere fact they are there is grounds enough to make fun of them.

[Borges]

Frankly I think they both sleepwalked through that film.

[eleni121]

That's one way of looking at it.

It's an onion of a film.

[altura]

Oh, no. I don't do gangster movies. I don't do that show on HBO about mafia types. Just can't hack it.

So, I'm with your wife on that.

(I did watch the first Godfather because a teacher forced me to, but, while it was a good movie, I didn't LIKE it and I never wanted to see any of the sequels.

But Married to the Mob was really cute!

Sherry Lansing in a group photo with Jimmy Carter and the Dali Lama ... they have to give her an award just for that.

[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

Yeah, the earrings are fantastic.... ;^)

[Mo1]

Cameron Diaz

"BTW, the HDTV broadcast is quite good, ABC usually screws these things up."

I'll watch Departed when it comes to one of the premium channels. I don't usually rent DVDs or go to the movies, and I'm watching the Oscars on HDTV too. I'm not used to watching live programming. I usually record everything and fast forward through the commercials.

[eleni121]

You may think that, but not accurate.

[Lil'freeper]

Ok, so Apocalypto got snubbed in the technical categories for which it was nominated and Hollyweird is on a major hate-Mel-Gibson kick. That being said, Ol' Mel is a sneaky devil - he convinced the major fashion houses that the Mayan look is in. Feathers, chunky semi-precious stones, intricate blocky patterns, plunging necklines.

Here are a few examples:

And feathers! All those Mayan outfits had feathers. We won't discuss how many birds had to die in order to produce the couture that walked down the carpet tonite.

Major problem on this thread. People reply and don't cite the original post and we have no idea what the heck they are talking about. Cameron Diaz in this case.

[SevenofNine]

JACK Nicholson

[silent_jonny]

My sparkling wit or her, uh, um, dress?

The dress and the girl that's poured into it.

But your sparkling wit is nice too :)

[peggybac]

Oh, yes, I agree with you. She looks more like a caricature.

[beaversmom]

"So many of you have causes. . ." She thinks that's what makes Hollywood great. That's what makes Hollywood stink.

Sherry: "We are fortunate to be in an industry where we are encouraged to speak out....about subjects we know nothing about." I had to complete the thought.
