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...

He's very sexy and does not seem like a girly man.


He is indeed.

Absolutely not. Remember that whole apartheid thing? She probably has to make reparations payments.

Back to Lauren Becall for a second.

She looked fantastic for her age. What a classic lady.

Joaquin Phoenix was also the weird kid in "Parenthood" with Steve Martin that had the brown paper bag.

I remember George Carlin saying he wished he was from South Africa so he could come here and call himself an African American to piss people off.

Green is really in. Not sure if it can beat Black though. Though neither green nor black are my colors.

I think that was Letterman's problem. He's gone down in history as being a bad Oscar host, but I thought he was hilarious. It's just that his jokes were at the expense of giant Hollywood egos, so while I was rolling in the living room, the jerks in the theater were chuckling and shifting uncomfortably. They couldn't take a joke on themselves.

I wonder if Charlize gets to call herself an African American? She grew up in South Africa.

That was actually the subject of her SNL a few years back with Tracy Morgan.

I didn't know that. I'll have to check that out again.
