WELCOME!


Eighty years of Oscars provide plenty to chat, discuss, and argue about.

Whether you love or hate them, feel free to join in. Just remember that Oscar-oriented discussions can occasionally get heated, so try not to take this stuff too seriously. On the other hand, It's okay if you do -- you won't get banned!

As Tangina once said: "All are welcome...all are welcome...in the light Oscar group"

Hey Juli -- welcome aboard!
Juli Comment by Juli on January 5, 2009 at 10:34am
I've been away for so long, that I know it's going to take me forever to play catch up. I just wanted to add my 2 cents worth that I really don't like the fact they keep changing the dates and moving the ceremony up now over a month from when it used to be.

I've heard a couple of rumor mills going around that SAG will strike this year and according to TMZ they won't strike because of last year's Writers Strike, the poor economy that they absolutely won't put anyone through it. I would like to think the latter would be the correct rumor.

I'm so glad I don't have to worry about looking for that next gig anymore. Those strikes literally kill the little guy (like me).

I haven't seen any of the contenders yet - however, I find it interesting that my long asked question has been put into movie format:

I always wondered why we didn't come into this life old and end it being very young and wise and know what to do with this amazing gift. Guess I have to see the movie to see if my crazy thoughts make sense.

So far it looks like most of the Oscar contenders have not come out here yet but am looking forward to seeing many of them shortly. I really enjoyed the cinematography in Australia but I do not think it is probably a serious contender.
