And The Oscar For Irrelevance Goes To…

So let me make sure I have this straight. They make movies belittling our troops while they’re in harm’s way; they despise the manners and morals of most Americans; their patriotism is dependent on the results of the last election. And now they get together to give each other prizes and we’re supposed to care because… why? Because the girls are beautiful in their pretty dresses? Because they’re glamorous and we’re drab? To hell with them. Really. They’ve violated our trust, abused their privileged position in the world and treated the common run of us with incredible disrespect. Let them celebrate themselves in the dark of our indifference.
Jim, this was great. Thanks for posting it. I just wanted to slap Sean Penn. This article was was so true on so many levels. Hollywood and the highly talented actors are killing America, and the movies that are being made dont even get me started. I’ll tell you a great new movie to see. Fireproof with Kirk Cameron, and it was really well made. The acting was really great, and it wasn’t corny like I thought it might be. It should win some oscar buzz, but you know it wont.
Hey Tammy!
You know, I heard that Fireproof is a good movie – I will check it out.
Fireproof is actually one of the most profitable movies ever made.
