Within ten years, all the people in attendance to the Academy Awards will also be all the people who actually saw any the movies that were nominated.

Most people in attendance at the Oscars didn’t see any of these crappy movies either. Even the Academy voters just vote based on political agenda surrounding the movie, not the actual movie.
Hollywood? Movies? Actors? They are all irellevant to my life. I just hope the faggots keep Jim Bobbing themselves until they all die of aids. Sounds harsh but I really do mean it!
GeeSus …..that sounds like a human mobius strip of sorts. No unlike the one formed when I peer up my lower colon using the “up periscope anal self exploration kit that comes complete with captains hat” ™ kit. Sometimes when I peer intently enough I realize that if it just went a little further I could see my brain peering via my eyes up a tube peering at my brain. At which point smoke comes out of my ears like it generally does out of President Obummers ears. ( that’s because there is a well fed steam engine between his ear holes. The ears are merely a disguise for heat radiating devices. As you know a carnot cycle requires a cold sink ). Thus I predict the only living thing at the Oscars in the future will be “Brown Trout” making their way up stream to spawn in the grounds where they were spawned.
Gee Frank, cut Hollywood some slack. How are people supposed to see a movie if they’ve never even heard of it? 😛
Apparently, award winning films are geared toward pseudo intellectual snobs, and effete liberals, who lack the will and/or financial capability to broadly promote these “critically acclaimed” works. (Like liberal professors giving each other tenure, it’s all very incestuous and the review process is skewed).
I don’t pay full price too often, but I can tell from the theater trailers where a new release falls:
1. Looks promising, but when are they going to bring back Firefly?
2. Wait for Redbox
3. Garbage/use time to rearrange sock drawer
I’m watching all the “best” movies. I took AFI’s top 100 lists (1998 and 2007), AFI’s 10 Top 10, and all the Academy Award® winners, and put them in one big-ass list. With some movies on more than one list, that totals 222 different films (counting that film that won last night). There are 72 I haven’t seen (counting that film that won last night).
It’s hell. Sheer hell. I will be a blithering idiot when I’m done.
TCM showed “The Devil and Daniel Webster” tonight.
It seemed eerily relevant.
I fear Ollywood couldn’t make a movie like that today if all their souls depended on it, which also may be eerily relevant.
The thing about the Oscars nowadays is that 99% of the movies that get nominated aren’t real movies that your average Joe would go see. It’s all art films and gay cowboys anymore, and since nobody you know has actually seen those movies, there’s not really any point in giving them awards.

Also, Oscar recipients on stage will shock the audience by injecting the topic of movies into their political speeches.
That many, Frank?
10 years? No freaking way it takes that long.

What are the academy awards, who gets them, and why do I care?

I think that just happened last night.
They wouldn’t need such a large venue any more…

The Wrestler was pretty awesome.

Do not try this at home.
