BROKEBACK OSCARS
I had not planned on blogging on the Oscars. I didn't watch it. I watched Law and Order reruns. I'm a huge Vincent D'Onofrio fan; his Det. Goren cracks me up. Then I read that the Oscars CRASH(ed) -- never heard of it, have you? -- and I'm sitting here eating chocolate pudding (no joke). HA HA HA !!!
8 For reference, the winners and losers.
8 Out of the corral gate, this liberal blogs on Why Jon Bombed: Yes, he bombed! ... He looked nervous and edgy, his timing was way off, his standup ran in super slow-mo, and his jokes flatlined. What’s more, he didn’t even try to make excuses for the movie industry ... Even his sharp political humor, what little there was of it, was dull. He slammed the Democrats twice, and told only one Cheney joke. (That got his biggest laugh.) He didn’t lay a glove on Bush, and what’s up with that? Isn’t that why we tuned in, to see Mr. Liberal get himself in trouble with the Red State Right?
8 The DC limousine libs thought Stewart's monologue "went over well," BUT there was a Collective Gasp as 'Brokeback' Fails to Win Top Honor: "You could feel the air leave the room as people collectively gasped to hear that 'Crash' and not 'Brokeback Mountain' won best picture for the Oscars this year."
8 And GASP! they did. Watch and hear The GASP :~)
8 The bachelor himself (ever wonder why?;) George Clooney Suggests Hollywood Helps Solve Society’s Problems: During his acceptance speech, Clooney admitted that Hollywood is out of touch. However, he said that this was a good thing, and actually had the gall to suggest that Hollywood is responsible for bringing attention to problems like civil rights and AIDS.
Video clip included.
8 This video clip had to be the funniest thing at the Oscars! 78th Academy Awards tackles cowboy issues
