It looks like many missed the link to the Heckle Thread.
Isn't Al Gore in for anything?
Hi Dolly! Do you have a live link to the awards? :o)
Joan Rivers is on the Red Carpet on another channel!...
..You have got to see her latest facelift....(tell me who she looks like now, and I'll tell you if you're right, LOL)
Ah for the days of Oscar when Bob Hope was the host and stars who loved AMERICA received the honors!!
Oscar-ific Updates: The Leo-Gore Show
“Wait till you see the Leo-Gore Show.”
That’s what I was told by an insider at the Burkle manse last night.
Leonardo DiCaprio, environmentalist, will present the Best Documentary award tonight.
I suppose we can assume that Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” will win. If it doesn’t, this will be embarrassing.
How the win will play is unclear since Gore is not a producer of the film and technically wouldn’t get to be on stage. The Academy has clearly made a concession. …
Another change: If “Little Miss Sunshine” wins Best Picture, exiled producers Ron Yerxa and Albert Berger will be allowed to join the three sanctioned producers on stage. They just won’t get Oscars or be allowed to speak.
Luckily, when the film won Best Feature at the Indie Spirits Saturday, the pair was indeed allowed to speak and accept their much deserved honor. They produced the movie, you know! ...
Exiled? What's this about?
Picture this...
The theme music for The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly begins to play.
Clint enters, stage right, dressed as in the film complete with poncho, spurs, and week old beard.
Blondie proceeds to clink across to the front of the stage, stops, then slowly lights up his cigar, blowing smoke at the audience.
He flips his poncho over one shoulder displaying his six-shooter.
Looking down to the front row of the audience the camera follows his vision.
There sitting in the front row are all the other directors up for the best director award.
Blondie speaks:
"There are two kinds of people in the world, those with loaded guns and those who dig."
He picks up a shovel conveniently placed on stage and tosses it to Scorsese.
Cue the DA-DA-DA-DA-DA from the theme music.
That would be the creative way to honour Morricone, but you won't see that tonight because the anti-smoking, anti-firearm, PC police would never allow it.
And there in a nutshell is why Hollywood is D.O.A..
Oh geez...is Spike Lee absolutely so tiresome? Can he leave race out of any sentence he spouts? What an a-hole.
"I'm not a politician," She says evenly. "If I want to be one, I'll run for office. Susan Sarandon, whom I know and love, is a fantastic actress. It's her right as an American to say whatever she wants. [But] just because you're rich and famous doesn't qualify you to make political statements. I don't put my opinions out there to influence people. You have alot of influence. And sometimes I feel it's undeserved influence." Reese Witherspoon
It's too bad that all of the "individual Oscar nominated songs" are not hip hop songs. It's getting to the point where the lone hip hop song always wins the Oscar unless there isn't one that's nominated.

I didn't think real conservatives would watch such tripe.
I haven't seen it yet and I couldn't think of a better night to watch it.
So did most of the Hollyweird crowd arrive via Toyota Prius? I saw a fleet of hybrids dropping off stars during the red carpet segment. What a bunch of hypocrites.. I'm sure most of them arrived in the LA area via private Gulfstream jet...
Did Jesse Jackson just do a voice-over for the black man accepting the award for Dreamgirls?
White Devils 1, Oppressed Minorities 0
Did Y'all catch the awkward pause when Hudson thanked God for her award?
Thanks for the ping!
Mom, daughter and I were talking, the only thing we wish we would have seen was "The Queen".
We probably would have liked Will Smith in "The Pursuit of Happiness" (just because we like Will Smith) but daughter wasn't able to see because her dad said it was too sad.
Hollywood needs to work on putting out some better films if these are our choices.
