If I was up for an Oscar, I'd be mad if I didn't get to go on that stage!

The building over Drew Barrymore's shoulder, photo top left, is located on the North East corner of Hollywood Boulevard at Hyland.  This corner faces all vehicles entering the Oscar Award drop off point.

RongDog led the Hollywood Resistance Force in a Freep at this location today.  Signs on the in the middle photo were undoubtedly held by some of his team.  Ted Hays' hat shown in the photo on the right, can be seen in the center photo.

Also present, but not showing in this photo were between fifty and one hundred foam rubber hands with one purple finger pointing up.

Also presented at the sight were several large signs I produced for the event.  One was a 44"x84" version of the "Thank You Hollywood" sign you've probably seen on the forum over the last few weeks.  I also produced a 48"x48" version of the FINALFREEPED graphic.  See graphics below.



I'll have to admit, when I arrived at the Kodak Theater complex this morning around 6:45, I was somewhat amused to see adoring fans already lined up to take a position in the grand stands.  I hold a very dim view of the people who produce and star in the motion pictures these days.

I half think that what they did with The Lord of the Rings was a cave-in to pressure. Jackson et al finally got their due; but, I doubt it was heartfelt from the judges.

I have to disagree. Remember, we're talking a project that cost US$350 million to complete, and that was in less-costly New Zealand! If Peter Jackson had tried to do The Lord of the Rings in the USA the cost would have been more like US$600 million.

[cyborg]

Agreed.

[doug from upland]

Darn, I wasn't paying attention.

[FReepaholic]

...Im not sure if this was a camera angle problem, Renee kind of looks weird here...

She looks weird from any angle.

Who was it, Neville someone that did the classic streaker comment 'most people don't show off their shortcomings'... Irons reminded me of that.

[Dashing Dasher]

I GOT THE JOKE!!!

Blue Diamond.... almonds....

[wolficatZ]

People who win Short Film don't even get to go onstage!? Gawd.

This may be off the subject but in looking into the background of some of these liberal creeps, a lot of them are frauds. Churchhill has been exposed for not being an Indian, Michael Moore was not even born in Flyntt Michigan, Maybe they will soon discover that Chris Rock is not black!

[newzjunkey]

I love that photo. It's so embarrassing for both of them. Well, maybe. All those rumors about Hillary could be true and Natalie sure looks excited!

[mewzilla]

David Niven skinned the streaker :)

[BigWaveBetty]

Have you noticed the upper balconies are nearly empty?

[al baby]

Come on guys its all ball bearings

[BonnieJ]

I sure don't understand what people gain from seeing these people or ANY "celebrity" in person.

[arasina]

Anyone ever tell you you're hilariously offbeat?

[fullchroma]

No matter how skinny Zelwegger gets she still squints behind those lustrous chipmunk cheeks.

[BamaDi]

NOPE NOT KIDDING....I don't mean he should have had a tribute, i meant that over the past several days they've been talking about the various hosts of the oscars and never once have i seen bob hope's name even mentioned....what's with that? he was the best of all in my opinion!

[SigPro2340]

Ah yes :)
