Go EFF YOURSELF Billy Boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You snide little elfin peckerhead, I liked you better when you were a queer.

Damn, why did I even try to watch this shite.

I hope the culture war crushes them like the sub human crap they are.

(rant off)....never again as they say......what a joke....they loathe us .

[getmeouttaPalmBeachCounty_FL]

I promise I thought the same thing. :)

[AgentEcho]

I go at about 3.5, but im laying on the couch typing w/ 1 hand.

[HairOfTheDog]

WOO HOO! Lord of the Rings! Art Direction

[Lil'freeper]

Happy Hobbit dance time!

Wheee! 10 more to go. *hopin' for a sweep*

[lainie]

LOL that's what I was thinking. She came as Jack Skellington.

[eddie willers]

Jolie... must be cold in there.

Jeeze...3 people beat me to that joke.
I simply must learn typing!

[Pylon]

I guess I am the only guy who things Jolie isn't hot. Honestly, when I look at her, I see a tweeker.

[Trinity_Tx]

LOL! Bada-bing

[Diddle E. Squat]

Oops, I missed that one.

But the smushing of Michael Moore more than made up for those!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Cher looks like a transvestite porcupine.

[Lil'freeper]

You need a (((((((HUG)))))))!

[demnomo]

Kidman also recycled a bit of Bjork's dead swan frock for the bottom of her gown. Only Nicole had it dyed gray...

[One Sided Media]

Jolie earlier today said that she hoped her fellow actors would behave themselves and not get political.

[TheBigB]

Heh, Fraternity Vacation. The movie that included a romance between Steven Geoffreys, who turned out to be gay, and Amanda Bearse, who turned out to be a lesbian. Wonder if they ever discuss that flick. :)

[lonevoice]

Truly unbelievable. CBS news radio feed at the top of the hour. The leading story was that Tim Robbins had won Best Supporting Actor and hadn't made a political speech. I guess it's so unexpected that it's actually breaking news. I hope it sets the tone for the rest of the night.

[DoughtyOne]

[Maigrey]

Fair enough.

LOTR: Oscar for Art Direction.
