HAS ANYBODY SAID IT YET? BOYCOTT THE OSCARS (Oscars Live Thread)
3-4-06 | freedom4me

Posted on 03/05/2006 1:43:20 PM PST by freedom4me

I suppose on this thread it goes without saying, but I'll say in anyway...BOYCOTT THE OSCARS tonight.

I want the ratings for this year's program go into the toilet (where most the nominated movies belong). I won't waste my money to see the films, my electricity to watch the Oscars, or my time watching to witness Hollywood's self-adulation fest.

Pass it on...

IS THIS MUSIC?

No. Perlman was playing music. This is some kind of technical difficulty.

Except that was a Clinton administration fiasco.

The version in the movie is much better. I'm not a big rap fan, but it's a lot better in the movie. The whole movie is actually pretty good.

I've muted it - but it's still on in the other room. It's painful.

I don't know, but I bet all the actors sent their agents out to make sure their limos aren't missing any rims.

I always found MASH (the film) to be incredibly unfunny and I couldn't understand anyone who thought it was funny.

When the Academy Awards dress up a bunch of dancers like stereotypical whores and pimps, it's art. If a fraternity and sorority have a party involving the same costumes, it's the most racist thing of all time.

I haven't seen any of the movies...and I haven't watched the Academy Awards in years, BECAUSE it is all about the stars patting themselves on the back..

BUT, I am "newsed" out...all bad news, all the time. UGH.

This is why the entertainment industry is so important. Without them, I would have continued in my erroneous thinking that it was simple, nay easy, to be a pimp.

Hollyweird is hurting

I agree. These folks are totally disconnected from the people. I haven't heard a word of thanks for our Soldiers, not just in the ME but all over the world who make it possible for these people to do what they do.
