Oscar-ific Updates: The Leo-Gore Show
“Wait till you see the Leo-Gore Show.”
That’s what I was told by an insider at the Burkle manse last night.
Leonardo DiCaprio, environmentalist, will present the Best Documentary award tonight.
I suppose we can assume that Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” will win. If it doesn’t, this will be embarrassing.
How the win will play is unclear since Gore is not a producer of the film and technically wouldn’t get to be on stage. The Academy has clearly made a concession. …
Another change: If “Little Miss Sunshine” wins Best Picture, exiled producers Ron Yerxa and Albert Berger will be allowed to join the three sanctioned producers on stage. They just won’t get Oscars or be allowed to speak.
Luckily, when the film won Best Feature at the Indie Spirits Saturday, the pair was indeed allowed to speak and accept their much deserved honor. They produced the movie, you know! ...
Exiled? What's this about?
I'm watching Joan but have not seen her face yet but so far, the fashions have been fabulous...loved JLOs dress the best so far...and Will Smith and his little boy are so cute...
Oh gee no....I'm computer illiterate :)
dont have a clue Fled.. BTW. HI!
I loved the rat at the end of Departed...hope Forrest Whitacker wins, I have followed him since Ridgemont High...Helen Mirren is gorgeous, her gown and hair are a perfect match and she has a mature figure...OMG, Penelope Cruz has a fabulous gown on...i am watching TV Guide Channel...Algore is in the house....lol....Melissa Rivers is very excited that HE IS HERE...
I STILL HAVE NOT SEEN HER FACE...JUST THE BACK OF HER HEAD AND HER FRENCH TWIST HAIRDO WHICH IS NOT VERY ORIGINAL, imo
at the boot murtha rally I spoke at length with the father of "lets roll"... great conversation.
He really liked the movie.. had tears his eyes when discussing it
He has close ties/financial support to where I went to seminary in Tennessee.. we are in same church..
Jackie Earle Haley up now...he looks way different from when he was a kiddie but seems like a nice guy even though he plays a pedophile in LITTLE CHILDREN.
Picture this...
The theme music for The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly begins to play.
Clint enters, stage right, dressed as in the film complete with poncho, spurs, and week old beard.
Blondie proceeds to clink across to the front of the stage, stops, then slowly lights up his cigar, blowing smoke at the audience.
He flips his poncho over one shoulder displaying his six-shooter.
Looking down to the front row of the audience the camera follows his vision.
There sitting in the front row are all the other directors up for the best director award.
Blondie speaks:
"There are two kinds of people in the world, those with loaded guns and those who dig."
He picks up a shovel conveniently placed on stage and tosses it to Scorsese.
Cue the DA-DA-DA-DA-DA from the theme music.
That would be the creative way to honour Morricone, but you won't see that tonight because the anti-smoking, anti-firearm, PC police would never allow it.
And there in a nutshell is why Hollywood is D.O.A..
JLo has a great figure. Is Nicole Kidman there? I think she is one of the most beautiful women in the business & she always looks gorgeous
Oh geez...is Spike Lee absolutely so tiresome? Can he leave race out of any sentence he spouts? What an a-hole.
Helen M no being interviewed by Barbara W
All the fashions are great doncha think? Except for Sally Kirklands but I think that was a joke...all those colors and religions represented...anything to get on camera, I guess.
Apparently, for academy awards there are at most 3 producers and there was some backbiting about which 3 get to count.
I like his work in general.. I dont care for him however!
No didn't get to see that movie.
Thanks for this thread, Dolly. I love the Oscars and have seen lots of movies this year, liked most of them except for BABEL....
Daniel Craig is there with a brunette on his arm...Gwyneth Paltrow is here and has a rust colored form fitting gown on...
