We’re absolutely astonished! Journo Brent Hartinger, who may be one of the biggest gays we know, says he’s disinterested in the Oscars: “I suppose I could watch the Oscars for the dresses on the red carpet and all that stuff, but that part of the hype has never really appealed to me (see?! I’m not just a total gay stereotype!).” Obviously poor Brent’s suffering some sort of mental breakdown. Someone get him a vagina and scare him not straight! [AfterElton]

Totally agreed. It’s as interesting as watching bankers give other bankers awards for being good bankers. Except bankers dress better.

Here, here! I’m sick of it all. I – perhaps we? – need a serious celebrity detox. It’s in the evening news these days for Christ’s sake! Celebrity gossip is now legitimate f*cking news! I’m bored to tears. Some show just this morning begged us to “stay tuned” so we can find out all about the hot Oscar parties. Like I’m f*cking invited in the first place!! Who are you wearing? Can we, as humans, come up with a more banal question? Like that bitch’s wardrobe is going to pay my electric bill this month. I like thoughful analysis of the art and craft of filmmaking but the rest is crap.

Haven’t even seen the any of the nominated movies. There should be and Oscar rule that more people have to see the movie than it took to make for it to be nominated.

I am so relieved. I thought I was the only one. I was afraid to be honest for fear I would be rejected. The only thing I could imagine being harder to watch on television is American Idol. Whom am I kidding. Sitting through another report on Brittany Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, or Princess Diana would be even worse. I stopped dating a man in the 90s because he could name every Miss America and insisted we watch it on TV.

I am sitting here weeping realizing I’m not alone.

I totally agree. I will be out riding my Harley and drinking beer! Oscars do not interest me, never have and never will.
