Golden Globe update - It worked!!

My tireless efforts to get rid of the Golden Globe Awards and the stupid show that they put on has finally worked. The Golden Globes have been cancelled!!!

If you are late to the show and/or you have forgotten my quest, take a gander at my post from last year (and the year before) about this ridiculous award. Go ahead. I'll wait.

Back? Well, methinks somebody has been reading my blog and taking notes. Because I just read on the Internets that they (and just who the hell are "they"), have cancelled this year's shows. I am equal parts gleaming happiness and humble pie right now.

What moronic social/entertainment issue can I tackle next? George Lucas films? David Hasselhoff? Nicolas Cage's creepy forehead? Let me know, and I will promise to do my best. Apparently, I have juice in this town, er, or Hollywood. Somewhere I got juice, that's all I'm saying.


Note 1 - OK, so it could, maybe, have something to do with the Writer's Guild strike. I'm sticking with my story, mother-fuckers!!!

Note 2 - If it's not transparent enough, this post is really just my annual excuse to post a pic of the lovely Scarlett Johansson from the 2006 Golden Globes.

Note 3 - TITS!!!

scarlette Jo-ho is my girl on girl crush... she is so beautiful. and she has huge knockers.

Hooray for No Golden Globes. i hate awards season

and if you could just boycott Nicolas Cage's Bad acting, that'd be great. Nothing he has ever been in has been good. nothing.

Maybe you could give her some Rock Chick lessons.

I have to disagree with you on Nic Cage, though. Fast Times at Ridgemont High was fantastic! He was in that for like 30 seconds.

scarlet jo has wonderful knockers. Makes you want to believe in God.

Elise said...

She has some nice ones! Even I feel like leaning over and cupping them.... xx

He's also in a standing-around moment in The Outsiders, one of my favourite movies, and has two lines in Rumble Fish if I remember right, which is also excellent.

And he was in Wild At Heart, which is firmly in my top 10.

Apart from that, his films are shite.

Verdant Earl said...

Jiggs - makes me want to believe in TITS!

Elise - I know, they just seem like they are there for our cupping pleasure.

badger - Wild at Heart? Really? I dunno, it was okay for a Lynch film. But I'm not a fan. No sir.

Next - the hoff. Use your magic to better the world you wizard you!

elizabeth said...

PS - I'm bringing that pic to my plastic surgeon.

Verdant Earl said...

Liz - I'm bringing that pic with me to bed later tonight. And for the Hoff...I'm on it!

Slyde said...

Raising Arizona, anyone? Hell-OOOO!

after THAT film, all he has done has been shit....

but that ones a gem...

concerning scarlet, i really dont find her attractive at all... she's got a nice body, and a killer rack, but i dont think she's pretty in the least....

Kat said...

Those are certainly very globe like.

So I guess you didn't tune in to the people's choice to hear Will Smith explain what a people's choice award was then did you? It was very deep. He said so himself.
I watch for the laughs.

Verdant Earl said...

Kat - the people's choice award at least has some kind of framework for handing out awards democratically.

The Golden Globes are just plain fascist!

John and Doug from The Movie Blog just moved to LA from Canada. They were tickled shitless when the Hollywood Foreign Press contacted them about becoming members.

I can't believe how such a small group became so powerful.

Verdant Earl said...

It's all fake power, in my opinion.

These few individuals promote the award show with the help of the media to fund their philanthropic causes (light-hearted at best), and the whole thing goes round and round and round.

Fucking circle jerk!

Mermaid Melanie said...

Ok. Raising Arizona is one of my all time fav films. FAV. Vampires Kiss was wacky! Yea. And Leaving Las Vegas? that was just plain ugly.

And when did Scarlett get my boobs? i swear. you could put my head on there. BAM. same rack.

god is good. :-)

FourLeafClover said...

I don't mind Scarlett or Nic but I suppose I'm easy to please.

Verdant Earl said...

I don't think anyone here minds Scarlett. It's that creepy Nic Cage that gets to me. Shiver.
