Will you watch the Oscars? - 3/4/2006 1:58:34 PM    RockSolid Posts: 524 Joined: 6/20/2005 Status: offline Over the years I've lost interest in the Oscars. I now see it as a total advertisement for Hollyweirds commercial product-movies. Yea, it always was, but I'm more jaded about Hollyweird's social activism these days; all wrapped up in a bigger than life entertainment vehicle. < Message edited by RockSolid -- 3/4/2006 2:19:04 PM > Post #: 1

Jon Stewart is hosting and he said he won't get political. That's what he does best, political jokes. You're going to hear a lot of dumb anti-Bush and anti-war stuff from Clooney and the rest of the loonies. Also, a bunch are going to make a "green" statement by showing up in hybrid cars instead of limos. There's probably a staging area a block away where they all will arrive in their limos before switching to the hybrid of their choice and pretend then came the whole way in the little piss-ant hybrid. Then, they'll jump in their private jets and go on vacation somewhere. (in reply to mbz300sdl) Post #: 7

Of all the movies that were up for Best Picture, Crash was the only one I'd seen. That is very rare. I liked it too. My favorite movie ( and I don't see a lot) was a children's movie-The Chronicles of Narnia.... BTW, After I said I wouldn't watch the Oscars, I ended up watching about 10 mins. by way of channel surfing. It confirmed my opinion that it's a collosal waste of time; for me, anyway. To each his own. _____________________________ C280 Sport: V6, Brilliant Silver, Zenon headlights, Rain-sensing wiper, Moon roof, Bose Premium Sound. (in reply to Lugnut) Post #: 10
