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...

the oscars are just as boring as the state of the union address, i don't watch either of them. why would any republican want to watch a bunch of rich, arrogant and dumb left wingers who think they are above us all and who hate republicans and our president.

and as chris rock states:

"I never watched the Oscars. Come on, it's a fashion show," Rock recently said. "No one performs; it's not like a music show. What straight black man sits there and watches the Oscars? Show me one!"

Rock added: "Awards for art are f---ing idiotic."

This is where the studio system was a win-win for Hollywood..... the actors had to keep their private lives and private thoughts to themselves... the men running those studios understood the audiences and that when we watch movies we want to get lost int he stories and not equate a face with some off the wall stuff.

Wow, best adapted screenplay, that'll pull them into the cineplex.

LOL, she'd rather show off her funbags than adjust the mike stand.

It was mentioned that this year lacked any big budget blockbusters ... like Titanic.

Saints be praised.

Aw, crap...Brokebutt Mountain Best Screenplay...this is the low point of a low night. And of course they had to get Rain Man to introduce it.
