Oscar

Is there any oscar polls tonight?



I like watching. It's a secret indulgence, that really, I guess, isn't so secret.

I think Jamie Foxx has a shot.

Jamie Foxx - Best Actor
Hillary Swank - Best Actress
Clint Eastwood - Best Director

Those three are locks. Other than that I have no clue.

Oh, and Chris Rock will be fucking hysterical.

Ugh. This time, every year, a friend of mine is always bugging me about the Oscars. "Who do you think's gonna win? Do you like so-and-so?" And so on. He knows every Oscar winner back to when they first started. Honestly, I could give a shit about the Oscars. I really don't enjoy watching pretty people pat each other on the ass. But now? Because of my friend, I actively dislike the ceremony now. It's the same mentality as a sports fan- "We've really got to work on our pitching staff." What's this "we" horseshit? Are you the Mariners' new pitching coach? No? Then shut the fuck up and sit back down.

The only thing worse than watching celebrities masturbate themselves on TV are the people who worship them doing so.

Eh. Well I don't think I'm -that- bad.


I ....er...just like the pretty dresses.

I've turned it into a drinking game.
every time they hand out an award, you drink, and every time they cut to the audience you drink.
you get pretty drunk pretty fast

i've been boycotting the Oscars ever since Freddy Got Fingered was snubbed.

No, I didn't say you were. I wasn't accusing anyone in particular, really. Just offering why I'm not a fan of the show. Please, continue.

Oh, I won't be watching ... I'll be well asleep by then (I work overnights and have been up forever) I was just making my (blatantly obvious) predictions.

I agree, though ... those people who get all dolled up in formal wear and whatnot for "Oscar Parties" that you see on the local news are just sad, sad people.

And Joan Rivers needs to go away and take her daughter with her.

She did, to TV Guide Channel.

But I like the getting all dolled up part. I mean I sit at home with popcorn and a beer and in my PJ's, but I like to watch. I like the hot guys in tuxes and the pretty girls in dresses. I sit and wish I were them.

Oh good. I surely didn't want to have to go get rach to protect me.

I mean the ordinary people who rent tuxes and put on gowns and go drink champagne at some poor guy's house because his wife wants him to.

Celebrities should definitely get all dolled up and party ... fans should watch on their couch with a beer or three and popcorn while wearing their PJs.

Did you just reference The Channel Channel?

Do I get a prize?

Iest picture - Aviator

Best Ray Charles - Jamie Foxx

Ugliest actress who will win - Imelda Staunton

My only lock is Cate Blanchett for Best Supporting Actress

I think I am going to consciously skip it this year. I wasn't seriously impressed by any of the films in it, and I have to study. Also, the host this year is a negro.

i love pop culture and everything about it. and this is the height of masturbatory wankery, so i love it even more. i'm everything mistersatan hates.

i'm busy tonight. so i'll be missing the oscars. i'm sure i can pick up us weekly or people next week to see all the pretty dresses.

What'd I miss?

Morgan Freeman and Cate Blanchett won for supporting. Adam Duritz's hair looks even worse than before.

Is that possible?

yep

Also, the documentery winner who was just on appeared to be drunk.

How has Chris Rock been doing?

Funnier than most hosts.
