Default The Oscars

Why do people feel the need to sit and scream at "celebrities"? I guess I have a passing interest in who wins what, and I guess I respect those who really care who wins what, but can someone tell me why you care what Jennifer Garner says or why you would want to camp out in those bleachers?

Alas I was wrong with the MDB reference sheez.....anyway I knew she was the "Alias" main character from TV but as far as movies per IDMB she was in the movie Catch Me if You Can with DeCaprio in a supporting role and she was in Daredevil the movie...more TV than movie person. Thanks Hoss for rescuing me from myself!!

Juno was one of the best movies this year it is a shame Ellen Paige didn't win best actress for her character

It was an o.k. movie. I found her character to be highly unrealistic.

Hoss I can't believe you didn't find her funny!!! The kid did a nice job with a pretty good script which may still win tonight....the performance of the year though is the villian from No Country for Old Men...for supporting actor

This dude made Hannibal Lechter look like a kindergarten child!!....this performance will be referenced for decades.....if you haven't seen it and your into scary characters you have to see this guy
