HAS ANYBODY SAID IT YET? BOYCOTT THE OSCARS (Oscars Live Thread)
3-4-06 | freedom4me

Posted on 03/05/2006 1:43:20 PM PST by freedom4me

I suppose on this thread it goes without saying, but I'll say in anyway...BOYCOTT THE OSCARS tonight.

I want the ratings for this year's program go into the toilet (where most the nominated movies belong). I won't waste my money to see the films, my electricity to watch the Oscars, or my time watching to witness Hollywood's self-adulation fest.

Pass it on...

Talkin' about Grandma. Woo-hoo. "I'm just trying to matter." Good words about June Carter Cash. Nice, Reese. Her dress is a winner, too. I thought that when I saw her red carpet photo.

I get "Three's Company" on TV Land now. It's too sad for me to watch Don Knotts and John Ritter.

Thank goodness!!!!!! Now I feel even worse that Joaquin didn't win... he seemed so happy for Reese.

Yeah, Signs was about the aliens and crop circles. It was the one with Mel Gibson.

One of her first adult roles:

Resse just won the Oscar for playing June Carter Cash. Meanwhile, Stephen Dorff is now appearing in Britney Spears videos.

I wanted Joaquin to win too. I wanted him to win for Gladiator. I guess, next time he gets a nom he gets the statue.

I heard Reese already eclipsed Julia Roberts as the highest paid actress. Story somewhere last week said she's getting $29 million for some new movie, which is $5 million more than Julia Roberts got for the godawful "Mona Lisa Smile."

Even though he's politically a lefty, I would link to see Hoffman play Whitaker Chambers in a film version of Witness written and directed by Whit Stillman with righty actor John Malkovich as Alger Hiss.

WOW! Great idea. I can't remember the title of that book a fews back. Brilliant! He wouold be a good choice.

Reese just displayed a level of class that has been missing from Hollywood for years.

I hope she never changes.
