Unofficial Academy Awards Discussion Board

i brought up an issue i think is important: reconciling actors being cast to play characters with which they do not match racially. As if flipp -- of all people -- would understand or care about this issue? now i know how to upset the white folks around here Oh there are lots of ways to upset white...

more topical film than Slumdog is with all its Mumbai-ness And anyone who has been paying attention to your posts over the years knows exactly why you didn't like this film (and it's even glaringly there in your post). Had the film been filled with blandly attractive white muscle-heads kissing in M...

The Idiot with Balls would be a more appropriate appellation. I'll at least give credit where it's due.

I suppose plan B entails you self destructing? Well please do so but ensure your bloody entrails land in your Mom's lap and NOT amywhere near this board. I'm quite sure she is bound to be thrilled by that. Have a great time doing so. You really are an idiot. Why would I have to do anything so stupi...

Nah, this isn't working. Time for Plan B...

Said the poster who recommended drugs to a stranger.

Nobody here apparently wants you around....so why don't you just go away quietly. Hmm, OK. But even if I do go away, how will you know I'm not still here? That I haven't been here all along? It's funny that you all just assumed that "Nik" was the first (and therefore oldest) identity I be...

And half because I didn't know if it's all that great an idea to get into interpersonals with Aakash. Heaven forbid you say what you really think right? (except in secret of course) Or maybe some of you are just afraid I'll say what you all REALLY think about each other? LOL. Don't worry, I won't. ...

Clearly, you do since you're so desperate to keep making yourself relevant: Well you'll notice I listed exceptions in parentheses -- a few people whose posts were always worth reading, and even now, despite how they might feel about me -- and of course, you aren't among them. And I don't have to le...

fooling everyone into thinking you're now sane and lucid, pleading with Marco on instant message to let you back into his life. What could you possibly know about my mental state now or the people in my life? Are you saying it's impossible for someone to get help, get better, atone for past mistake...

No arguments here. Judging from some of the posts, you guys have no problem meeting that objective.

It is a trend, a mighty one even, but this is the way Hollywood has been – picking a trend then beating it to death. One is allowed to question this trend, even mock it. And I'd love to see an Obamaesque new era in Hollywood. It's time for Slavery to be explored. Historical and modern colonialism a...

And your credibility on this board is, well, next to nothing. Shouldn't you be out working off some sort of exorbitant debt? As if the esteem of this board is something one should care so fondly about (well ok, there are a few: Marco, Damien, Sabin, Eric, Johnny Guitar, Uri, and even my arch nemesi...

So did the majority of this board. So let's not pretend most of your tastes are that much higher than Oprah.
