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...

and it is mainly charged IN SUPPORT of the Japs.

The film depicts men forced to fight in a war. There is nothing in the film that glorifies the Japanese war effort---it simply illustrates what becomes of men in brutal and futile circumstances.

It is a brilliant film and definitely worth considering.

OK....Marconi (?) is making my eyes burn now and screen blurry.

I thought that I was alone in that. He is a beautiful man.

I wouldn't be surprised if he has never spent much time in California. Why bother if you don't have to?

I was in another room.
There was no discernible difference in his reception than that of any of the technical awards.
He's got the Clinton taint on him. All those sitting in the theatre are Obama fans.

Hi, Wolfstar :-D

He'd better not try put any claims on Jennifer now, because he didn't like her much in that AI season. For him it was Fantasia all the way.

And now they're stuck with her--LOL

I am surprised that Jennifer actually won, this being her first movie. Judging by some of the looks in the audience, I think they were surprised too.

Hey Tark. Didn't know he did The Thing. To be honest, I don't really remember the music. Do you actually have the soundtrack?

I'm not ready to fall in love with the imperial japanese.

JAcques Chirac like you has however. He awarded Eastwood some big cheese French honor because of this film.

Golly gee.

Without questioning rather she deserved it or not...does anyone ever go back over the counting of Price Waterhouse to make sure they've got it right?

I love the Cavemen--especially the cheesed off one. I wish they would make a movie with them in it.

Didn't know that. Doesn't change the fact the the film doesn't whitewash Imperial Japan.
