So the Oscars went green? Does that mean they all arrived in Prius's?

I for one am done with Hollywood and won't be going to the theater again.

I haven't gone to the movies in about 12 or 13 years. It's a big waste of time and money when you can wait six months or so and see them on t.v.

The Oscars also went Green by informing all members of the Academy to bring a cloth bag in which their complementary Rolex's and other assorted non-taxable gift items could be taken home in.

30,000 Mexican gang bangers in LA, and they are sermonizing about light bulbs. If these people had any sense they would have stopped the invasion in CA, instead of spreading it over the country. People who cannot manage their own affairs have no business telling anyone else what to do.

Oh yes, Britney and ANS make us think they are great social theorists.

What is really funny about the whole thing was the inconvenient truth of Algore proclaiming that global warming is a "moral issue" in front of the most immoral group of people on the entire planet.

I would add to that list - volunteer to do PSAs calling for government to clear the way for more nuclear power plants to be built. If they really cared about reducing fossil fuels, they should be screaming at the top of their lungs for more nuclear plants to be built while we develop other alternative energies.

I agree with you about the "old Hollywood". For the past few years I attend (as one of the organizers) and "Anti-Oscar" Party in Manattan usually held at Kennedy's Restaurant on 57th Street. It is always held the night of the Oscars. The guests wear name tags of the favorite actor/actress- I was Audrey Hepburn- and bring Trivia questions on the movie classics of yesteryear (i.e.Lawrence of Arabia, Gone With The Wind,etc). We eat dinner, chat and ignore the Oscars. There are no more Stars today - just "celebrities".

First Michael Moore and now Gore, the term "documentary" has really been degraded. Now anyone can spout all the lies and deceit he wants to on film and have it accepted as a documentary.

ALGORE AKHBAR!!!

The Atheist Rapture Is Upon Us!

Lest ye polluting souls repent, and accept Global Socialism as ye only hope for salvation, ye shall surely die in the fires of Global Warming!!

The Goracle has said it so, and HIS Gospel shall not be questioned!

At least Riefenstahl had production standards.

Food left over from the post Oscars Governor's Ball was to be donated to a local shelter.



"These baked crab cakes with spicy mango lime sauce are perfect this year--not too soft, not too firm. The sauce highlights the rich texture without overwhelming its flavor. How is your poached lobster in clarified butter with gnocchi and green pea sauce?"

"Wolfgang Puck's culinary delights are so creative, but I'm a little bummed out that there was no more duck and roasted garlic quesadillas with tomatillo salsa left. The duck ensemble would have been a lovely accompaniment to the 2000 Marcassin Vineyard Pinot Noir, according to my source, Frank Prial of the New York Times."

You are right, there was a time when Hollyweird was not so weird and made good movies. I tried to watch "Departed" the so called best movie but it was too disgusting. If they took the "F" word out, it would have been a silent film.

I didn't watch much of the Oscars, but unfortunately during the time I had it on was the time that Al Gore recieved an Oscar for his crockumentary on Gorebull Warming. I knew he was going to get the award, but the loud "NO!" that I let out caused my cat to wake up and give me a dirty look. It made me sick how Allie tried not to cry and chummed around with the Hollyweirdites.

The hilarious thing is there was a big snow fall going on on the East Coast, and there was a rather large ice/snow storm a couple weeks ago.

These people would love us all to try to conserve in our homes, transportation, and purchases, but they don't. The amount of energy required to light and heat their mansions must be mind boggling. They ride around in limos, large SUVs, and private jets. You'd never Allie's fat face on a bus or bicycle. Then, you must consider those expensive dresses and jewelry. The amount of money spent if added up is probably into the billions. The Hollyweirdites supporting this is a joke and makes me not want to support it.

I think there are much more pressing things than global warming, such as the 4,100 daily abortions. I'd love to make a documentary on abortion. I wonder how many Hollyweirdites would clap for me, not that I'd get the award anyway. Abortion takes far more lives than global warming ever will.

On the heels of the Dixie Chicks sweeping the Grammys, this certainly comes as no surprise.

...Sure makes me glad I canceled my cable subscription last Spring.
