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...
This has got to be a parallel universe or something... :-(
Kind of like Jethro Tull beating Metallica for the best metal performance at the grammys?
Yes, Crash is a great movie, which Mat Dillon has won instead of Clooney.
We all agree with you on that. I never want those 17 Rangers to be forgotten. The problem is, the only way we can remember them is to watch the movie. Not easy.
Johnny Burke and James Van Heusen say, take a bow!
You're really old, aren't you?
Our country is fine....the America haters in Hollywood want to rub our collective noses in it tonight.
I can now die happy, because "It's Hard Out Here For A Pimp" has FINALLY gotten the recognition it so deserves. Shoot me now.
lol!

Were doomed. This country is doomed.
Jennifer Garner had a nice jiggle in her walk. heh heh
I'm talking about MASH the movie. MASH the TV show could be tedious, but the best episodes were some great TV.
Eminem already won one for some awful thing from "8 Mile" where he yapped annoyingly over a riff lifted directly from a Led Zeppelin record.
I know. I'm deeply touched myself.
yo-ho-ho!
