Actually, the Oscars were derided by the 1960s counterculture and defended by people like John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart as an American insitution. Lots of Freepers enjoy them. Yet on every Oscar thread every year the killjoys show up without fail. Boredom I’m guessing.

Tomas.,

One can enjoy the Oscars.

and still get irritated by the lib preening...Sasheen Littlefeather remember and so forth

and know that yes Hollywood is still overwhelmingly libtarded X10

few creative folks who aren't liberals I've known in my life..a few writers here and there and Ted Nugent

Oscar hated Wayne ...they considered him a crazy right winger..they just gave him True Grit because he was such an icon...the critics and media ridiculed his Oscar..claimed he just played himself

I was only 13 but remember thinking hell...isn't that what all great scene possessors do

anyhow I'm glad Dolly ran this thread ..I actually will watch more than usual this year...True Grit and Bones got my attention...neither was lib loaded or PC...thankfully...maybe one day they will learn out there

but you do have a point...the Hippie-Yippie left in 60s and early 70s thought Oscar was establishment...Easy Rider did not have many fans for example and much of the youth culture was scorned by the Old Guard..as well it deserved it

PS...sometimes freepers just like to be assjack..they can't help it..too many here don't even like babies really...just sour folks...go to any tragedy thread and invariably there will be glee about how stupid the folks who died or were harmed were....it's just a snarky nasty side to some here

Ignore them or tell them to go to Hell

You had to go out of your way to make a big stink about the funny comment I made.

I just don’t accept that looking back at 84 years of history makes this year’s Oscars any more Conservative.
