Last nite was the big nite! The Oscars! The Glory! The one for all the marbles!

I was so busy at work that I had time to watch almost the whole show un-interrupted. -O.K., so, I switched channels at 9 to watch a Trailer Park Boys Episode……….

First off, for all you nay-sayers out there, I'd like to say that just because I haven't seen 99.9% of the movies mentioned, doesn't mean that I can't report or comment on the Oscars. I was in the film (porn) industry for a couple of years, a while back, so I do know what I'm talking about. 

I guess the real shocker of the nite had to be Scorsese winning for 'best picture.' Now, 'The Departed' is one of the films that I did see last year, so I've got every right to speak my mind about it.

However, even though I think that Scorsese is one of the greatest directors of our time, I think they really only gave it to him outta sympathy. He'd been robbed so many times in the past that they figured that they'd finally have to give him something…………..

But on the other hand, that leaves instant classics like 'Borat', and 'Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby' out in the cold……….

Frankly, I was apalled that they weren't even nominated in the 'best picture' category. Small consolation for the directors if these little masterpieces that they can consider themselves in the same league as Orson Welles, for never having won for best picture.

Oh well………. Time marches on. As the long suffering fans of the Toronto Maple Leafs keep saying: "Maybe Next Year"

Then there was the 'best actor' category. What a fucking sham. How the hell does Forest Whitaker win for a roll in a movie I didn't even see? It couldn't have been that good, or I would have seen it, right?

Again, we find that the obvious winner was cheated. Everybody knows that the real winner should have been Samuel L. Jackson for 'Snakes on a Plane.'

Personally, just between you and me, I think the academy gave the oscar to Whitaker over Jackson,  because he's black.

Don't get me wrong here, I'm sure that Whitaker did a fine job in whateverthehell movie he was in, but you've gotta admit: This is just another case of those slack-bellied Hollywood Liberals giving out an award to somebody because they figured they deserve it -not because they earned it!

I mean, I like the Ellen Degeres show just as much as the next guy, but that doesn't mean that you let him host the Oscars!

Am I right here, people?

They have a gay guy hosting the awards, to show how liberal and fair they can be, when they really should have given the job to someone more appropriate…………………… like Britney Spears.

I rest my case.
