Well, the writers strike is over, the Oscars will go on and, by golly, we conservatives just can’t wait to watch Hollywood pat itself on the back for another year of anti-American, anti-military, anti-traditionalist filmmaking. And while red-carpet anticipation is giving me the shivers, I can’t help but imagine an alternative Oscar ceremony in a different kind of Hollywood with this list of exciting best-picture nominees:
* “Oono.” Hilarity ensues when a 16-year-old girl finds herself pregnant and gives the baby away to a similarly unmarried neurotic so that the infant grows up to become a drug-addicted loser and dies of an overdose at 23, whereupon the hilarity abruptly stops. What struck me about this film was that Hollywood filmmakers finally ended their attempts to sanitize and glamorize the irresponsible lifestyles that are destroying their own children before the paparazzi’s very eyes. A production of Don’t Hold Your Breath Films in association with Not in This Lifetime Pictures.

I haven’t watched in years and will continue this tradition. It’s just another glorified attempt to honor themselves despite the crap they put out.
LOL
I see more movies that don’t make it to the Oscars than do.
The only Oscar worthy of my attention is Oscar Mayer.

I don’t know why they bother to televise it.
Here in L.A., the orgasmic anticipations of the Oscars by the local media are sickening. They should move the whole “ceremony” to Cuba since those Hollywierd jerk-wads love Fidel and hate the US anyway.
I have not watched since Bob Hope stopped being the host.
