I'll watch 'em with you! If The Blind Side wins Best Picture, I will officially commit here to never watching another movie again. I think I am pretty safe. How that piece of shit movie even got nominated is beyond me. I know that they expanded the field, but I am pretty sure there most be more worthy movies out there (Hangover, maybe?)
Got a live feed if any of you can't get it on tv http://www.theidiotboard.com/messageboard/viewtopic.php?f=4&p=36856#p36856
Oscars + some school work + bottle of rum, who is in? I can win a 15 liter bottle of Moet & Chandon if Jeff Bridges wins best actor so go Jeff imo.
Hangover was a much better movie than The Blind Side. I have discovered that I am the only person who thought that The Blind Side was a condescending cliche of a movie, but I stand by my review.
Eye exam followed by an MRI tomorrow. No bueno. Since I can't get hammered tonight, I've been drinking beer since about noon. Got a good buzz and now I'm watching something about man-made disasters on the history channel. Life is good.
As much as I love Vancouver in the summer/fall, the non-mountain winters and spring suck ass. It's now a few degrees above freezing, and dark, gloomy, and pissing down rain. A Bailey's/Frangellico coffee helps, but it is still depressing as hell. Give me the snow and sunshine of the Southwestern Ontario I grew up in any time. Oh, and I'll be in Ontario (London) from the 16th to the 23rd of this month, and Toronto from the Friday to Monday to party with friends. Let me know if anyone's around and into grabbing a drink or something. I'd originally planned the trip as a surprise birthday present for my Mom, who, I just found out today, booked a cruise for her and dad as a birthday present for her during that time. I show up the day they leave. Awesome.
I know. Why do you think I picked those dates? I didn't want the awkwardness of telling you you weren't invited.
I'm not going to watch them because I could care less about the avatar suck off fest. I personally feel Up in the Air should win it all. But that is a bias answer. I refuse to watch the Blind Side until that fuck doesn't play for the Ravens any more.
Does anyone have a link for a stream of the award ceremony itself? Edit: Nevermid. <a class="postlink" href="http://www.ultraculture.co.uk/2486-ding-dong-oscar-ceremony-stream.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.ultraculture.co.uk/2486-ding ... stream.htm</a>
Well so far, justice has been served. Christoph Waltz won best supporting. Not that that's a surprise to anyone. Here's to boxed wine and yelling at Avatar for a couple hours.
Yeah I don't care how the rest of the night goes, I got what I wanted when Waltz won. Avatar loosing would top it off though.
I really wish Ben Stiller had come out in the Nazi uniform instead of the Avatar one. At least the Oscars seem much more amusing the drunker I get.
Just got an email saying my professor fell and broke his leg on a hike yesterday, meaning tomorrow's exam is CANCELED baby. So yeah, sorry about your leg and all Jacob, but this is truly fucking awesome. Maybe I'll be able to get home from the library today before 11 pm.
I haven't seen it. A friend said it was like "Dances With Wolves," only the people were blue. So that made me terribly anxious to go watch it.
I like how Avatar won for Art Direction even though it looks like everything was designed by a retarded 11 year old. This fucking Franzia is getting to me.
Where's Bruno at? Are you telling me the scene where he slingshots his dick into another guy's ass isn't Oscar worthy?
