The question is not who will win an Oscar but if the event will ever take place. If to judge by Hollywood’s outspoken I know how to fix the world wannabe George Clooney, the Oscars will only happen if the Writers Guild of America and TV and film producers will reach an agreement that will end the writers strike, and he offers to help solving this issue: “When the strike happens, it’s not just writers (affected)… Our hope is that all the players will lock themselves in a room and not come out until they finish. We want this to be done. That’s the most important thing.” He told Hollywood.com. Oh come on George, you got your nominees, let go will ya? It reminds me a South Park episode from a couple of years ago, when a cloud of smug, carrying Clooney’s Academy Awards speech, was threatening to destroy society.
Daniel, Javier, don’t lose hope, Michael Clayton is not such a great movie…
And besides, Day- Lewis always wins!
Just a small update: Last night we went to the premiere of The Simpsons Movie. It was awesome. If you are a Simpson fan, this will be the movie of the year for you. If you watch the show occasionally, it will be the best movie you saw lately. If you like Family Guy and South Park but not so much the simpsons, you will still have a great time. If you hate the Simpsons, you are not reading this so I don’t really care… In short, The Simpsons Movie is like one long episode of the show only edgier and even funnier. Oh and yes, Bart shows everything!!! Go watch the movie.
As unbelievable as it may sound, Sarah Silverman is now filming a new season for her wannabe show The Sarah Silverman Program. I find it hard to understand why a channel like Comedy Central that bring us a masterpiece like South Parkcan also produce such a shitty show, but hey, everybody has to eat no? Or as the Stranger said in The Big Lebowski:”Sometimes you eat the bar, and sometimes, well, he eats you.“
Al Gore and Kevin Wall’s Live Earth, a 24 hour-8 Concerts-100 Performers gig starts tomorrow, in an attempt to save the world and to combat the climate crisis, by influencing people to change their consumer behaviors and to put pressure on leaders. Although I think the cause is just, and something has to be done, This entire thing reminds me of South Park, when the kids do something stupid and then everything gets out of hand and take the shape of a rally or a concert, and everybody is brainwashed. Think about it, other then maybe a great show, and big announcements and slogans flying up in the air, what will Live Earth really achieve? Probably not much, maybe it will help Al Gore in a possible Presidential bid.
As much as I tried throughout the time this blog has been up and running to avoid mentioning the tedious term American Idol, my morning commute with dozens of local radio stations with only one thing in mind (ratings) were in a constant blabber about the 2 hour special Event. And in the end, all this focus on the the songs the final contestants will sing tonight drew me unwillingly into the commotion. I will never understand this rush after complete mediocrity. All I know is that nobody is going to watch this “Event” in my house, and while my lovely wife devotes herself to a 2 hour Lost, you’re humble servant will watch… South Park.
