The boringest (is that a word?) award show I ever saw! Where were the celebrities?, and Berry's speech was painful at best, it's an award, she wasn't elected president. Lucky for here she's as sizzling hot as she is.

I could not agree more. Berry was rambling on like she just discovered the cure for cancer, not won an acting award between 5 people. I think it was a good night for black actors, but what about asian actors and so on. The "door" has not been opened as she wailed, it's just been proven that from this point on no more whining will be permitted by actors doing awful movies. My favorite part of the show was the new Animation sequence.

Animation is stupid!
I liked the part when Whoopi Goldberg made the Black jokes, it was so funny cause it's fresh and has never been done before. Hah Ha ha, hee.

Bender:

     That is one of the most intelligent observations I have heard in seconds. Pryor and Murphy played that sh*t out to the extreme in the 80's, in the 90's new comics that could not come up with their own sh*t continued on with the same old boring crap, and now it just continues. It was not funny 10 years ago, and it's not funny now. But considering the pathetic state of comics today it will no doubt just go on, and on, and on, and on. Zzzzz.

Definitely Jennifer, Skully.
Ok, ok guys, let us black people bask in the glory that we never had before.  I know its easy for white people to laugh at achievements and milestones that have nothing to do with them other than the fact that they take the credit whenever they can.
As for the Animation, I think it is one of the most important areas to celebrate in film making.  If it wasnt for animators their wouldnt be all these cool special effects that we have in all our favourite movies.  Its all an artform thats why its all credited together.  
In a country which is supposed to have so much freedom and independence, it took 74 years for 2 black people to win an oscar on the same night.
Im glad Will Smith didnt win it, that would have been a joke, but I do think Russel Crowe should've taken it home again because Denzel's character wasnt as complicated as Russel's.

RE: Connelly wins!   reply

Posted by Skullfire (hulacete@ubbi.com) on March 26, 2002 10:31 AM

Yeah, Denzel deserved the Oscar for Malcolm X.
Now you have three black winners: Mr.Washington, Ms.Berry and Mr.Poitier. The only one who's missing is one of my favorites, Morgan Freeman. I'm still waiting the Oscar for that fine actor.

Your just pissed because he is not an American and Australians are always up there at the top threatening to take away the glory.
He should have won because not only was his character very complex but he also has to change his accent which was an overlooked factor I think.

That movie was a cop out I tell you, Nash was a womanizer that cheated on his wife in public dozens of times, they made him out to be so "clean", he's a dirty old f*ck. And since the greatest Hollywood star by far, Carey Grant never won an Oscar for "North By North West", "To Catch A Thief", "Gunga Din", "Notorious", "Arsenic And Old Lace", and a host of other five star movies he starred in, then Crowe and these other dolts should quit their whining. And for the record Crowes accent pops into every role he's ever played on the big screen.

Yeah Australian women are hoes but not as slutty as American women.  Everybody knows America is the land of smut.  Besides American women give it up to anyone not just Aussies.  I mean look at all the American sweethearts Russel is bouncing off his boner, go figure Fred f*cker.  
Besides, if you are as pathetic as you sound Freddy you probably should be glad their are so many easy women in this world that can be bought for pleasure.  Now all your ugly ass needs is a job.
If Ozzies are such pussies then why are they helping your stupid nation, you shouldnt need our help, just go kill your own people. It would be entertaining to watch.

I live in Melbourne, Victoria and I saw a situation that may well just sum this arguement up.  
I was walking through the city with my girlfriend and we were about to enter this bar which was full of American sailors or soldiers off duty.  These idiots were soo drunk they were being thrown out of the bar for fighting and trying to sexually harrass the women.  Upon being thrown out a couple of the Yanks yelled out, "We're American! We're American", like it was some kind of God given privillege and they continued with their disgusting behaviour and picking fights with everyone.  It was at this point one of the Aussies at the bar walked outside and smashed a bottle over the head of one of the fools and beat the sh*t out of another, breaking limbs and all.  Nobody came to help them, nobody cared, they just laughed and left them their because they were American and they didnt need anyones help.  It was a classic and it goes to show who the pussies are.  I know a lot of you yanks will be pissed off about this but that goes to show you are just like these fools and it will happen to you one day.

ozzie shemp, way to uphold the "american" ideal you so abhor. Go eat vegemite or whatever barrel dredging your "girlfriend" releases in your mouth.

By the way, Fred, for the record, I like Russel Crowe.  Anyone who says what he means and doesn't give a sh*t about the publicity machine is 2 steps ahead of 99.9% of the other jackasses out there in my book.

At least hes got a girlfriend powertrip.  As for the story Ozzie shemp, is it really true?  I can imagine sailors being unruly and acting like typical farts but I wonder how it went down with their commanding officers when they returned to their ship with severe injuries.  Probably threw them in the brig.  Good for them.  Im sick of meatheads representing our country as heroes in war and as animals in the streets.

No Australian could ever kick an Americans ass in a fair fight, he is talking out of his backwards flushing ass.

My grandmother could pummel the vegemite out of an Australian rules football player not break a sweat.

Russel Crowe is a pompous self-important ass. He is an average talent that has had some decent performances, and now he thinks he is a good looking Humphrey Bogart, but now is starting to get fat and ugly. When the metamorphasis is complete he'll be doing dinner theatre in Tasmania, so he can fire waiters for dropping silverware during his monologues.

On the other hand, Crowe is an angry bastard.

I, like many men, love to hear stories of bar fights that end in a serious butt kicking. Although that last story was a bit exagerated. The cowardly bottle blow, I believe, the part of him breaking all his bones is just down right stupid, and is obviously a flat out lie. However you cannot hold that against an Aussie, it's in their blood, they are thieves, liars, sinners, and skeevey just by nature due to their ancestors being theievs that were caught. Now before everyone jumps on me for being mean, let me point out that we are not entirely different. We as Americans are the ancestors of the masses that were kicked out of, or got the the hell out of every country on the planet. Which is why we f*ck up tyranny wherever it may lie, and why we don't give a f*ck what the rest of the world thinks about us. I got no problem with the Austrailans or with New Zealand, I think of them like I do Canada, they're kind of like our little strange sister. They talk funny, and they're pretty weak, but they try hard as hell to be like us, and thats why we tolerate, no I mean, thats why we like them. Crowe, Hogan, Pierce, Hey, Jackman are all fine actors and are doing very well right now, their performances, whether they be Ozzie Skin Heads, Blue Aliens, short mutants, or Subaru Salesman, are all excellent performances and deserve applause from any that appreciate digital entertainment. Bravo.

It amuses me Skullfire, just how sympathetic you always are to the now dead Osama Bin Laden and his minion's of the KKK or whatever they call themselves nowadays, but if you actually read my post, you'll see why we Americans do not care what the rest of the world thinks of us, and we are as justified as anyone.

I'm not sympathetic to Osama and his KKK (which, by the way, started in the land of the free), I'm saying that's an example of the consequences to your attitude.
But it's true, I read all your message again and I found the reason why you don't care: you're idiots in a huge percentage.

RE: ?   reply

Posted by RED (Duster1@usa.net) on March 28, 2002 1:23 PM

Read it again Argentinian, the reason we don't care is because Argentina, Afghanistan, and every other country on the planet already chewed us up and spit us out, we are the remnants of torture and cruelty from every place in the world. You and Osama are the rich, silver spoon sucking class that did not have to leave, but probably missed your slaves after they took off for the free world. The amazing thing is, here we are trying to help the peace process in the arab countries, Ireland, stopping world wide outbreaks of smallpox, and sharing our culture with the rest of the world, whom not too long ago had collars around our necks, and don't you dare talk sh*t about America until Argentina starts making the world a better place. Alas this is a free American website so take advantage Skullfire, take advantage.

Posted by Skullfire (hulacete@ubbi.com) on March 28, 2002 7:26 PM

First of all, America is a continent, not a country. And I'm tired of all yanks that thinks their good actions justifies the wrong ones. Besides, you're still so naive to believe that your government and your corporations do it for the well of mankind. Just ask yourself when USA gets his nose on something, where is the money. If isn't that, it's just one situation to have a country by their balls and make them what you want, but not the famous "free will". Truth is that UK is the brains behind everything and they own the world, you're the hard workers for them. Who the hell do you think helped Osama all these years? And Argentina has problems of our own, so we have to solve it first, but you're f*cking us up instead of solve your inner issues. Like you don't care, you're the only country who's interest are out of your nation, screwing your own people.

Sorry to burst your yankee bubble mate but the barfight was true.  Its not something I would usually applaud but I think in this case it was necessary and justified.  Dont think because you you are American you can beat an Aussie in a fight.  Your pussy NFL is nothing compared to Aussie rules football, its all stop and start and you dress up like you are going into a war with all that body armour and helmets.  How f*cking gay is that?  Aussie rules is straight up rough and is even acclaimed by your athletes you dipstick!  Thats why NFL are always trying to recruit AFL players because they know how tough and athletic they are.  And believe me their are enough boys down here to kick your nerdy ass.  Even your special forces troops couldnt keep up with our soldiers when they come here for joint training.  You are such a misinformed, patriotic, faggot, c0cksucker.  Get your facts straight or even better come down here and shoot off your big American mouth, see what happens.  You will end up just like one of your big mouth soldiers who probably cant serve your sh*thouse nation anymore :)

I'm sorry your country is insignificant and weak.

I realize that the actions of the US are not purely altruistic, but in many instances there is a desire to help. Where would your country's economy be today without the US dollar? In the toilet, so be grateful.

RE: ?   reply

Posted by Skullfire (hulacete@ubbi.com) on March 29, 2002 10:43 AM

I won't. The entire south american economy would be better if the US dollar hadn't exist. Not all countries born weaks, and sometimes it's convenient to the humanitarian US government to stay that way.
If we get someday an unique currency to the region, then we could be free someday. But that is something US doesn't want, cause you'll be in trouble, like it's happening now with yourselves against Europe and their euro.
But of course, you're gonna say "we'll beat them, and shows who rule the world, blah, blah, blah"... I rather choose a weak country instead of a weak mind.

Although the Chinese are far superior to both the Americans and the Aussies, it is hilarious to think that the Rugby players could stand in the NFL, if an NFL defesive lineman were to run into someone without them both being padded, that person would die. Rugby players do it everytime they play, and after watching a scrum, there is no doubt in my mind that all Rugby players are flat out homosexual. Before lashing out at this post, go to an NFL practice, and watch 260 lbs, men with no body fat, pumped on steroids, and genetically perfect running full speed into one another, then getting up and doing it another 100 times, then make your comparison. I must however side with OSAMA SHEMP when it comes to the Aussie military, they are bas ass muthas, thats why their military is feared the world over, mostly by another bad ass bunch, the Bermudians.

No its obvious Jet Li and 100% are the same, everyone knows that now.  You tiny are just a insignificant twat who has got it all wrong.  
Yankees need padding because they are wussies and Aussie Rules rules mate!!  Try telling some of these rugby players or footy players that they are homosexual.  Dont even bother asking them to put on helmets or padding they would just laugh at you.  All American sports are simplified sports that the rest of the world play.  NFL as opposed to AFL and rugby.  Baseball is such a poxy sport with no skill involved when it comes to placement or even facing a real leather ball like in cricket.  All you do is swing and hit as hard as you can and hope for the best.  BIG DEAL!!  If you can face a cricket ball from one of the fastest bowlers in the world and knock it out of the ground in any direction you choose then you have skill.
The only good American sport is the NBA.  And even that is dominated by the blacks.  
What good are you Redneck gay bastards anyway?
