I thought LaLa Land was WAY overrated.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

@Chris Craig was just googly eyed with ryan gosling

 

[Chris Craig]

I thought LaLa Land was WAY overrated.

I didn't care for it, but its going to win some awards.

Manchester by the Sea was sad as shit...didnt care for the ending

Nocturnal Animals should have gotten more nominations. Shannon deserves best supporting actor for it.

Hacksaw Ridge was one of the best war movies I've seen in some time...Andrew Garfield suprised me...dude can act

I thought they were all overrated, so I didn't see any of them.

Until they're on Netflix, I won't know....I'm done sitting in dark theaters with the soundtrack cranked up to brain damage levels and the dialogue buried beneath the sound of a door handle clicking. That and the unnecessary exposure to strangers farting and telling their kids to shut up....most of all....I love the pause button for my movie experience....I need a refill....click....I want some edible popcorn without a half pound of salt and greasy fake butter!..the exception would be Star Wars movies.....those are worth the foul smells and brain damage

Hosted by Jimmy Kimmel. On at 5:30 on ABC. The red carpet is on now.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

No.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Jimmy's taking jabs at Trump.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Was moonlight worth watching? I have it on my server and haven't checked it out.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Not even gonna bother. It's just gonna be one giant Trump bashing by a bunch of elitist Hollywood Liberals who are out of touch with America, and who make awards shows with other elitists just to pat themselves on the back.

Jimmy was pretty level handed. He said that people of different minds should get together and talk to each other and that's how we'll make America great again.

Meh, I don't even care anymore. The speech given by Ali was very short, sweet, and to the point though.

 

[KingSpeed]

And the Hollywood Liberals aren't out of touch with America. Hillary got the most votes and Trump has a horrible approval rating.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Put me down for a "no" on the will you watch "we will rise" show lol

 

[Chris Craig]

Bump

 

[BigGameDamian]

Kingspeed have you done any movies or just TV dramas?

 

[Chris Craig]

I already started an Oscars thread in OT

Yes

Patting themselves on the back huh? Sounds familiar.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

God I wanna bang the hell out of Taraji P. Henson.

Keep telling yourself that. California does not speak for the rest of the country.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

This girl is only 16? Jesus, she was born in 2000... now I feel like I haven't done shit in my life lol

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I've only heard of "LA LA Land" because people were posting about it on Facebook. Never heard of the other nominations.

 

[KingSpeed]

Keep telling yourself that. California does not speak for the rest of the country.

One person, one vote. Trump is my President but the majority of the voters didn't vote for him and a majority of the country doesn't want him to be President.

 

[KingSpeed]

Kingspeed have you done any movies or just TV dramas?

I've done 3 movies:

On_Line: good movie that premiered at 2002 Sundance, you should watch it

The Phobic: never really finished, premiered at Screamfest, not released

Lady Peacock: never released but available on Amazon

 

[Jade Falcon]

One person, one vote. Trump is my President but the majority of the voters didn't vote for him and a majority of the country doesn't want him to be President.

The majority of the country is stuck in partisan, party politics. Trump doesn't give a shit about that, and that scares people.

But I am surprised to hear you say that he's your president. You have my compliments for that.

Alright, I've said my piece. Enjoy the Oscars.

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

I usually watch it.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Lol this is kinda cringey
