Yeah!

Who cares if she played a great part and deserved that best actress award! Let's give it to someone pretty and older who can't act for shit.

LOL, well said.

As said before, I agree, the Oscars is mainly for entertainment, lol and its a show that I haven't missed since I was 11

It was OK this year, The host wasn't that great, the funniest part didn't even involve him.........lol it was the start when they were looking for a host and Whoopi Goldberg went " oh hell no" hehehe

umm U do know that the dresses are auctioned off for charity afterwards right??? Oh wait, NO u dont!!!!

Your telling me if you didn't get rich off off acting you wouldn't be wearing expensive clothes.

I hate it when the public tries to act so moral and shit like when they truly aren't. Like i remember in our city, the city councillors were give $25,000 expense accounts. Most of them used the account. People said ohh there wasting tax payers money.

Your telling me if you had $25,000 expense account you would not use it.

I understand hundreds of thousands or millions, but it gets very silly.

People say why do people like celebrities. I like some stars who to me are great actors or directors. Thats why i like Clint eastwood or morgan freeman or Steven Spielberg or Tom Hanks.

Reese won because she was amazing in WTL. She wasn't the typically valley girl in that film. She was way different and gave a great performance. Easily the best she gave and is oscar worthy.

I liked how Crash won. You should watch that film. Its not stupid artsy crap, and is a great film.

I think next year a blockbuster film should win. The smaller films had thier chance.

Plus, most of the people who get nominated are crap, as well as their movies.

I don't see what Reese's looks has to do with her winnin any awards.

Mann321:

You said the Small Movies had their chance and a Blockbuster should win next year.

Doesn't a Blockbuster win almost every year. It's not like they continuously get overlooked or anything.

The smaller movies need to continue to be recognized, even if that means another small movie winning next year.

is it comprehensible.....

true but if another blockbuster film comes and has the quality of Lotr it shuold win the oscar.

the ppl @ the Oscars are so uptight! I thnk Jon Stewart did an okay job hosting, no a great job better considering the audience. My fav part was when Three 6 Mafia won the Oscars, just halirious and i wish most ppl acted like em after winning!

Dammit, you stole the only thing that was worth a reply (because of it's stupidness...just to be clear).....then again you created a new opportunity..so you shall be forgiven.

Do a search on posts by its creator...there's more where that came from.

Well, I wouldn't wear a thousand dollar dress if I were rich. But than again I don't cross dress. Shit I buy my clothes at thrift stores. But I will admit, I'll spend a couple hundred on a nice suit if there is an event that I have to go to that requires formal attire.

Just as a side note, not that anyone cares, but in retrospect I think I might have been a tad bit harsh on ol' J rock and co.

Well, I think it's time for me to hit the ol' dusty trail....(runs frantically away from the thread that I started)
