The Oscars!

danax6 · #1 03-05-2006, 03:45 PM

Thanks to a nifty new cable decoder I stole from my dad for the evening, I can now watch the Oscar pre-show (and later on the Red Carpet show) on E!. It doesn't have ABC, but a german channel is airing the actual Academy Awards, so I guess that means I will be staying up till 5 am to catch it all.

So, who else is watching?

I'll be watching as well.

Yep, I'll be watching. One of my favorite nights of the year.

I'll be watching Joan and Melissa while I record E, or the other way around, not sure yet.

I just watched Crash last night - good movie. And I watched Walk the Line earlier this week. Those are the only Oscar-nominated films I've seen so far, since I loathe going to movie theaters.

I'll be watching. I've seen Crash, Brokeback Mountain, and Walk the Line. All good.

I'm about to pile on the couch and drink it all in tonight.

Did someone say "drink?" How about we play a game? Take a sip of your favorite beverage whenever Melissa Rivers says "amaaaaaazing."

Are you ready for all of "US" to go to eternal damnation once Brokeback wins?

That's what I heard when I was flipping thru the radio dial yesterday.

Isnt it nice that the religious wackos give us something to laugh at?

I'll be drunk within 15 minutes. I've got 2 things working against me: she says that constantly and I'm a lightweight.

lol.

I doubt it wins though - I really see Walk the Line taking everything they're nominated for...

Livia · #11 03-05-2006, 04:13 PM

Okay, how about a non-alcoholic beverage for "amaaaazing" and alcoholic whenever someone flubs reading the teleprompter or mispronounces a name?

I've heard Crash has really been gaining momentum as a darkhorse for BP.

I think BBM will take Picture and Director, easily. I am hoping for an Amy Adams win in Supporting Actress.

danax6 · #14 03-05-2006, 04:20 PM

Which channel has Joan and Melissa? So I can see if I have it right now...

I can't stand Joan Rivers though.

Livia · #15 03-05-2006, 04:54 PM

The TV Guide Channel has Joan and Melissa, but I doubt you'll be able to pick it up...I get a weak signal here as it is...
