  1. oscar? How about the Em Emalb? by Em+Emalb · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Screw the oscars. I don't care what a bunch of people have to say about movies. I don't need their approval for a movie to touch me, make me laugh, angry, etc. I am quite capable of doing that myself. Besides, it's all about the Benjamins anyway. Make a ton of money at the box-office? Your in! Popularity contests is all they are. Ok, little flamebait rant for you this morning...

    happy hunting!

  2. News For Nerds??? by anewsome · · Score: 0, Flamebait

  3. You're probably right. by Maul · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    In my opinion:
    The Oscars were made for the sole purpose of Hollywood to award itself. Until recently, the
    foreign film category has managed to keep foreign
    films that were BETTER than all of the American films
    nominated for "Best Picture" from getting proper
    recognition.
