So like the original Oscar Madison, I am going to sit back in my lawn chair and have a beer because I don't care who wins or loses.If you want to find about all that Oscar stuff you have to check out blake's blog at http://bitmaelstrom.blogspot.com/ because he knows all the inside movie stuff.

I may even liveblog with a co-host.
Then again, I may skip the whole thing.
I will put up my guesses, though.
My guess is Mickey Rourke will lose out to Sean Penn. The hollywood homo mafia is too strong.
But the fact is that all the Oscars are a joke. Hollywood product is pathetic.
And I'm not a movie snob. A few years ago I saw a documentary made in France about one year in the life of a schoolteacher in rural France and it was one of the most moving, without being sentimental, things I have ever seen.
A couple of weeks ago I went to the Film Forum in downtown Manhattan and saw an English film, Of Time And The City, about the once great city of Liverpool, now in terrible decline, that was not only heartrending but made use of great epic poetry and a classical music score.
It's appalling how poverty stricken and gutless hollywood is in comparison.
