Anyone Planning to Watch the Oscars?

<p>Or is a gay cowboy love story (Brokeback Mountain) or racial clashes in Los Angeles (Crash) or slain Israeli Olympians (Munich) just not really your thing? :P</p>

<p>Leftist propaganda and politically correct ******** if the reason I have watched so few films this year. Refer to, and not limited only to: Brokeback Mountain, Good Night and Good Luck, Syriana, et al.</p>

<p>I think I'll catch some of it... though I'm sure I won't hear the end of Brokeback controversy all day tommorrow.</p>

<p>I sorta think Brokeback deserves the honors. I mean Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal made out, numerous times. They should get something for that.</p>

<p>what time is it on?</p>

<p>Now they need a movie where Jessica Alba and Scarlett Johannson are gay...cowgirls..and they make out!</p>

<p>hahaha, that would be funny. </p>

<p>Jessica Alba and Scarlett Johannson are so pretty.</p>

<p>oh, and the Oscars start at 8 eastern. There is a pre-show that starts at 7 eastern.</p>

<p>"what time is it on?"</p>

<p>8:00 PM eastern, 5:00 PM pacific.</p>

<p>I don't watch those things, they waste my time.</p>

<p>I never - NEVER - watch this sort of thing (it is generally, as Kate said, a total waste of time), but...Jon Stewart's hosting. So that kind of makes everything a tad bit more worthwhile.</p>

<p>I watch those time to time if there are decent flicks..But since its Jon Stewart, I think I will finish my homework instead.</p>

<p>Oh yes, I am going to watch the Oscars, right after HELL FREEZES OVER.</p>

<p>i am currently watching the pre-show. </p>

<p>Heat Ledger is so HAWT!!!</p>

<p>Brokeback Mountain should not get the award Crash should get it. But guess what, guess...Brokeback will get it. Why? Because of the messed up social workings of every part of life. Remeber when a while ago every movie with a mentally challenge person won, well guess what make a movie with gay people in it and bam you got yourself an Oscar. </p>

<p>(Oh by the way I don't mind Gay Marridge)</p>

<p>I agree that Crash is an excellent piece of cinematography. But i also think that brokeback had better strategy. it came out closer to the actual oscar nomination time and it stirred a lot of controversy, which is most likely why it will win.</p>

<p>Is it just me or has anyone else never heard of brokeback mountain until recently b/c of the Oscars publicity?</p>

<p>It's just you.</p>

<p>I'll be watching as much of it as I can. I need to study for bio and apus though.</p>

<p>yeah, pgedufailedme, i heard of brokeback mountain in like october/november.</p>

<p>Yea Hollywood is messed up...American Beauty, Monsters Ball, The Insider, Brokeback, Syriana..seems like any movie which pushes the wierd or taboo as the norm, or promotes socialism is a guaranteed winner. In the recent years anything with a minority actor is a winner, too.</p>

<p>No....</p>

<p>All we watch in this house is the Sopranos. It's been nonstop(we have HBO on Demand). I can't believe they are going to kill Adrianna, she is my favorite!</p>
