Academy Awards

So the awards were mostly a disappointment just like they are every year.

I know this will yield little discussion but what did you guys think of the winner and/or loser outcomes?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I think I was more in shock over the fact that Crash won more so than I was disappointed that Brokeback Mountain lost. I really think that of all the nominees that one definitely deserved its award because it was the fucking underdog.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

SERIOUSLY! I mean... "It's Hard Out Here For A Pimp" was a pretty good song and it did a good job in relating context to the movie. But come on... Three-Six Mafia winning an Oscar is a sign of the motherfucking apocalypse.

I mean... COME ON!!!! IT'S THESE GUYS!!!

That was the moment I knew that I was going to be disappointed for pretty much the rest of the night... ENRON: The Smartest Guys In The Room losing to waddling flightless bird footage...

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Not really. Wallace and Grommit was such a fucking great movie that I was almost waiting for it to lose...

But Howl's Moving Castle...

Like I said... It was mostly a night of disappointments

I guarantee you that the Academy shifted the way of the birds because of this little number a couple of years ago.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

No. Because it's the Three Six Mafia.

I was speaking idiomatically.

On second though... I change my mind. This was the best award given out all night.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
