:grin:

 

so much for being 'banned'

 

Oh wow - that was classic - I was just coming in here to see if did anything funny.

 

That was pretty funny. And the stern academy security guys tryign to kick him off. XD

so going to see this film.

 

so many serious people at an event to celebrate people that can pretend the best.

 

I don't get the outrage at the film industry here. there's far more to making a movie than hiring a self obsessed actor to say their memorized lines in front of a camera.

we all see movies, we grow up on them. I simply don't watch this Award show because it's boring. but to act like these people aren't Artists (see what I did there?) is absurd.

 

and that's what I said in my opening sentence.

 

thanks for posting this. he appears to be mocking central asian muslims and southern american whites here, while cleverly painting his own people as the unfairly stereotyped victim. that's rich.

 

Seeing great films, doesn't mean you understand them.

You can't hear Jimi.

 

Films that changed perception? Unlimited...

Here are a few off the top, bruh.

The Passion of Joan
The Birth of a Nation
Guess Who's Coming To Dinner
Rashomon
The Exorcist
Dead Poets Society
Fight Club
American Beauty
Jaws
The Godfather
Rocky

Hell, Mel Brooks changed EVERYONE when he came out with Blazing Saddles. EVERYONE...

Damn, how about "Roots"? I can think of 7 thousand movies... Just like I can think of unlimited pieces of music and art that changed world perception and conciousness.

 

Acad

He can't even count pass 4, much less understands anything. :grin:

 

That's pretty funny, glad he did it to the dbag Seacrest....

 

You actually think he wasn't in on it? If anything it was a smart move, he got on probably the only 'exciting' thing that happened that night. I don't know why people watch these award shows...
