[Tim-E]

Missing documentary short film, short film live action, and short film animated Tim-E if you're in the whole competion.

I'll edit them in there. I picked completely random ones on the Oscar website because I have no clue what any of them are, but I'll put what I had there.

 

[Amir0x]

Ok, let me collect the nominations of those who didn't get to finalize their stuff so that I can calculate it at the end...

 

[Outdoor Miner]

Cannot believe the show isn't in HD. ****ing disgraceful.

 

[jett]

Watching E!...Poor Leo, he knows he's not going to win. :lol

 

[Shard]

Cannot believe the show isn't in HD. ****ing disgraceful.

Maybe ABC is anticipating Peter O' Toole winning or something.

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

I've got a feeling that while Marty will wrap up best director, I don't think The Departed will end up getting Best Picture. I'm thinking it's either Babel or Little Miss Sunshine.

 

[jett]

I've got a feeling that while Marty will wrap up best director, I don't think The Departed will end up getting Best Picture. I'm thinking it's either Babel or Little Miss Sunshine.

Little Miss Whogivesashit winning anything would be terrible.

 

[Amir0x]

Little Miss Whogivesashit winning anything would be terrible.

seriously. overrated.

 

[Outdoor Miner]

This Barbara Walters special is like the worst TV ever.

 

[Shard]

This Barbara Walters special is like the worst TV ever.

Level five biohazard at least.

 

[Tim-E]

This Barbara Walters special is like the worst TV ever.

I accidentally turned it to CBS instead of ABC and it was some old woman talking about some opera involving Hitler or something. You can imagine me being confused.

 

[GitarooMan]

Cannot believe the show isn't in HD. ****ing disgraceful.

I didn't know that, sucks.

[sublime085]

This Barbara Walters special is like the worst TV ever.

She just described Helen Mirren as "fanciful and frivolous"

Barbrah Wawa at her best

Looks like somebody decided to wear the nearby curtains.

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

Little Miss Whogivesashit winning anything would be terrible.

Never said it deserved to win. Just thinking it might, that's all.

 

[Shard]

Why hasn't this shrill harpy been banned from the airwaves?

 

[Nameless]

The only reason I'm watching tonight:

Mark my words, I WILL marry that woman one day.

Remember when Eddie Murphy starred in funny movies?

I still can't believe he's nominated for anything. It's a shock. Dreamgirls... and then Norbit

 

[Shard]

I still can't believe he's nominated for anything. It's a shock. Dreamgirls... and then Norbit

You would think that he was getting the Best Actress award.

 

[sublime085]

I still can't believe he's nominated for anything. It's a shock. Dreamgirls... and then Norbit

Oh come on Norbit was a Peter Sellers caliber performance.

 

[Tim-E]

While I'm not too into Norbit, he was very awesome in Dreamgirls. I hope he wins.

 

[DMczaf]

The man made Beverly Hills Cop...

Beverly Hills Cop.

 

[sublime085]

Wow, he actually mentioned Pluto Nash in an interview about the Academy Awards.


I saw that stealth edit Shard

 

[Shard]

Wow, he actually acknowledged Vampire in Brooklyn.

 

[Nameless]

After the Delerious Show and Coming to America, Eddie Murphy can pretty much do no wrong. Its like Pluto Nash and Daddy Day Care never existed as far as I'm concerned.

 

[Shard]

Wow, he actually mentioned Pluto Nash in an interview about the Academy Awards.


I saw that stealth edit Shard

You saw nothing nor can you prove anything.

 

[Tim-E]

"I met two or three people who liked Pluto Nash!!!"

:lol :lol :lol :lol

Eddie Murphy is awesome.

 

[DMczaf]

After the Delerious Show and Coming to America, Eddie Murphy can pretty much do no wrong. Its like Pluto Nash and Daddy Day Care never existed as far as I'm concerned.

Eddie needs to revive Arsenio's career. Throw him in BHC4!

 

[Shard]

STOP MANGLING THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE YOU DAMNED SHREW!

 

[sublime085]

Ok I was wrong about the whole HD thing.

ABC's website misled me.

 

[Shard]

Go away Happy Feet, just go away.

 

[sublime085]

Shit there's more waiting?

I thought it started now?

Red Carpet bullshit

 

[Shard]

Shit there's more waiting?

I thought it started now?

Red Carpet bullshit

The true road to grievous wrongdoing begins in half an hour.

 

[J2 Cool]

So where's Scarlett Johotsan tonight?

 

[Shard]

So many tasteless jokes can be made from this segment.

 

[VPhys]

Damn Nichole Kidman looks like Jessica Rabbit.

 

[Shard]

This wall will later show up on Ebay.

 

[Tim-E]

Damn Nichole Kidman looks like Jessica Rabbit.

:lol :lol :lol :lol

 

[scorcho]

anne hathaway...yum.

 

[sublime085]

What was with the stupid slumber party questions thrown at Kidman and Watts?

 

[Incognito]

What was with the stupid slumber party questions thrown at Kidman and Watts?

Lesbian subtext.

Aren't these two ladies reputed to have had, ahem, "relationships"?

 

[Shard]

What was with the stupid slumber party questions thrown at Kidman and Watts?

I think she was trying to steer the conversation to the way of the AVNs.
