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...

Our daughter is interested in a possible career in tv; in Digital Video Editing. She would LOVE to work for Bruckheimer's company!

That's gotta be the biggest upset in Oscar history, bigger than "Shakespeare In Love" beating "Private Ryan". I mean, not one person in ten could tell you what the hell "Crash" even is or what it's about.

"Brokeback" was a lock!

One of the biggest upsets in Oscars history had to be in 1982 when "Chariots of Fire" won over "Reds" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark." "Raiders" is still a classic to this day, while "Reds" is a forgotten Warren Beatty movie. Some will say "Chariots of Fire" is boring even though it's a great movie, but who can ever forget the musical score to "Chariots of Fire?" That score is still a classic to this day.

Will Smith is an untalented moron and the Stepin Fetchit of our time. Nevertheless, he has replaced OJ Simpson as the black guy middle America feels comfortable with.

You're a little hard on old Will.

He may be a dink, but I think his heart is in the right place. His head? Totally different thing.

I feel sure that Sela has given to the 'Rats, too.
But, these two want to work.
Just look at how Ron Silver has been "blacklisted" for his stand.

Reese is a very lovely young woman, with oodles of manners and grace.
She is truly a child of the South.

I know that Sela and her family spend a lot of time on their farm outside of Meridian.
When Reese is older, I have a feeling she and her family will spend more time in TN.

LOL!
While I'm not used to commenting on other wimmen's "attributes", I have to agree that she has great legs. ;o)
She's a doll, all the way around.
I loved "Sweet Home Alabama".
