Academy Awards Tonight Reminder

geetrue · 02-25-07, 10:39 PM

Everyone is missing ... I figure a lot of people are watching the Academy Awards.

Germany just won best foreign film in fact, but anyway what were your favorites?

They don't have to be Academy Award winners ... Just movies your glad to have considered the best.

My favorites ... :p

1. Sand Pebbles
2. Giant
3 American Graffiti
4 Star Wars (first one)
5 Strategic Air Command

I only have five (5)

Whoops, I forgot one:

Kelly's Hero's (Clint Easrwood)

I'm watching out of the corner of my eye. Eva Green looks like a racoon...too much makeup.

Rooting for Letters from Iwo Jima.

Award shows, now days seems like all they are is a bunch or rich people telling themselves they're the greatest and somehow the only movies/shows/songs/actors/musicians that they show are some hippies that decided to make some political statement during the year. When they decide to honor the arts again instead of personal views I'll start paying attention.

Uh-oh! An Inconvinent Truth just won an Oscar. We'll never see the end of an smug Al Gore now.

Actually, it's more like we'll be seeing posters proclaiming Gore '08 for the next two years.

Al Gore can't run unless Mrs Clinton drops out, they are best of friends ...

Besides he lost his home state ... shame, shame.

Heed the Goracle!

Afta' ahl, Jimmuh does.

Scorcese finally scores one. He really needs to lose those Woody Allenesque glasses. BTW is Jack Nicholson auditioning for the part of Mr. Clean or what?

geetrue · 02-26-07, 12:23 AM

Boy that was interesting, a lot of rich, happy people, but are they really happy?

I'll go microwave my cheese and bean burrito now and go to bed ... Happy!

I had to turn the channel after that!

Anyway, American Graffiti would have to be #1 on my list. Ever since I saw that movie I wished I was in my late teens during the 50s or 60s. Very influential to my life. My god, if I ever got a deuce coupe I would die happy.

For now, I will just hotrod my Camaro and try to live as close to John Milner as I can.

U-533 · 02-26-07, 06:15 AM

I like "Finding Nemo"...

and "Cars"

I'm not much into selfish acting people who do not lead a good example.In fact I'm not in to them at all.

Dowly · 02-26-07, 07:42 AM

I liked Pan´s Labyrinth.

Yeah, and what's the the sunglasses, Jack? You're in a building. Man, you can tell he's eat up with the movie star mindset

Happened to turn on the tube last night just as Algore received his Oscar. The scores of useful idiots in the audience nodding in agreement to his blather was enough to make me puke...

Yours, Mike
