I don't know about the AWARDS, but I have a feeling the RATINGS are going to be very low this year.

42 labels? Aren't there 43 cartons?

Yes, but 42 are the same carton so there are sets of 21 and 21 labels for them. No. 43is already set t0 go.

I just spoke to Charlotte, who is now off to THE FANTASTICKS (last performance) with her ma and pa.

I'm not sure I understand the appeal of Ryan Seacrest...

Amen! He must be having sex with the right person. Or persons. What do I know.

If they want to incease the ratings next year, they need to talk Billy Crystal into hosting again, no matter how much they have to pay him. I have nothing against Jon Stewart, in fact I enjoy him; but he is not a good choice to host the Oscars. IMHO.

Glad to hear that you don't have to go traipsing about Manhattan with the luggage, DR elmore3003!

See, I told you it would all work out. Did you get her luggage?

...... and since both Johnny Carson and Bob Hope are no longer available - get Billy Crystal.

Matt H. · « **Reply #307 on:** February 24, 2008, 03:30:48 PM »

I think they go to Billy first every year.

Well, I was happy to do it, but now that I'm off the hook, I'm putting on my pajamas to watch tv. I wll rise early and tote cartons into the hallway. 21 cartons have been labeled and I'll finish the others tomorrow.

If I were in The Fantasticks, I would not want to know that Ron Raines was in the audience!

It's his choice not to do it.

And since when has anyone's opinion about the Oscars, or even the nomiated films, had anything to do with Oscar Night at HHW? I just thought we used those broadcasts as a starting point for our annual foolishness.

Matt H. · « **Reply #315 on:** February 24, 2008, 03:36:06 PM »

Am I wrong or is the show starting later this year than in the last couple of years. Seems like it started at 7:30 last year.

I am sort of watching METEOR but will switch over to some OSCAR coverage in a bit. I will NOT watch Ms Barbara Walters.

As opposed to the way we behave the rest of the year.

I got most of the bonus features watched on DAN IN REAL LIFE. The outtakes, deleted scenes, and two "behind the scenes" documentaries. None all that special.

All but the outtakes were in 1080p HD.

Sure. All Blu-ray players are backwards compatible with standard definition DVD and they will also upconvert using an HDMI connection.

Blu-ray players have component connections (red-blue-green) and you can get 1080i quality with Blu-ray discs and 480p quality with standard DVDs.

The HDMI connection (one cable for picture and sound) gives you 1080p pictures for Blu-ray and can upconvert up to 1080p with standard DVDs.

As the OScars are not shown here on TV for another tEn hours or so, would you all please post spoilers and/or use yellow or pink when discussing the awards.
