Naw, I feel you, because I find no interest in famous muscle-y people finding occasion to plow each other over and pat each other on the backside!

I'm not particularly into celebrities, but I am into artists, and I'm REALLY into film. I find the whole awards "game" fascinating.

Yes, to me it's mostly the fun of the film contest. It's a silly contest, but it gets you to think about a bunch of mostly good movies (the nominees are mostly worthy, the winners not really "the best" and, of course, there are tons of other great films that don't get nominated).

The rituals of the show I've come to watch for 45 years thru my lifelong movie-fandom have also taken on some fun of their own. Critiquing the acceptance speeches, the women's gowns, and the host's banter is snarky good times.

It's all become great fun, and i love making an event of watching it with friends. Thanks LSPoorEeyoirk and (in Cherny-speak) LSPoorTom!

Will there be gambling?

innerSpaceman · 02-18-2008, 09:52 AM

I'd be shocked!

Round up the usual suspects.

Play it again Sam?

Gambling would make it even more interesting. We could have an Oscar's pool, of sorts. Or, a pick 3. For very little money. Just for cheap thrills.

Why am I saying "we"? I can't be there anyway. And, does this indicate a gambling 'problem'?

Heh. I took it to say "damn, why do I have to live so far I miss the meets with all the cool, sexy fun people! I'm so bitter!"

I think that we will be able to make it for at least part of the time.
