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...

Are they dating? I really like her but she's been in at least three of his movies I can name off the top of my head: Corpse Bridge, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory; and Planet of the Apes.

I don't think Stewart's bombing at all, he's funny... has pretty good timing... much as I like Billy Crystal better.

The worst I can remember.

I used to at least enjoy seeing the gowns the women wore to the Oscars, but I just can't handle seeing this parade of anorexic glorification anymore.

This is another thing we can thank Hollywood for. It's sickening and disgusting that these sacks of bones are considered to be the most beautiful women in the world.

I hear guys go on and on about Jessica Alba and look at her. She is unnaturally thin. That's not healthy and it's sad that our normal, healthy daughters have to look at this and think if they don't starve themselves to death they will never be beautiful.

I hate Hollywood. They take everything that is normal and treat it like it's something horrible and they take everything that is abnormal and glorify it.

Why do they waste time with awards for short films nobody saw when they could waste it on major films nobody saw.

And now, nominated for a lifetime achievement award in the category of boycotting the Oscars: Mr. Mulliner.

Since Will Farrell has been mentioned, this thread needs more cowbell.

I don't think Stewart is terrible. Not great, either.

During Constant Gardener, I kept opening my cell phone to see how much longer?
