Ahhh. You'd miss Louis wouldn't you?
Clint Eastwood.
A man's man of many westerns. Cowboy par excellence. Man with no arse
from all those saddle miles.
Having to read out the Oscar Winner in the year it was won by a film
about gay cowboys.
Poor Clint.
Look on his face saying "Has Hollywood come to this?"
It was ever thus, Clint.
There are none so blind as those who will not see.

If you think it was about gay cowboys, I guess you either didn't see it or
aren't particularly knowledgeable about farm animals - those were sheep!

Did Clint Eastwood read out the Oscar Winner for Best Director? Crash

Shepherds. Those were sheep they were minding, not cows.

John Wayne's reaction to Midnight Cowboy winning Best Picture was classic
homophobia. Pretty funny though. He referred to it as the "gay cowboy
movie". That was in 71 or 72, I believe

_Brokeback Mount Doom_
Sam: I don't know Mr. Frodo; there's something mighty queer about this
place.
Frodo: Whaddya mean? You know I ain't no queer.
Sam: Me neither. I were jus' thinkin', if you was to claim the Ring, we
could maybe set up our own little bit of a garden around the sea of
Nurn.
Frodo: Now Sam, you got your Rosie back in Bywater, and I got... well,
anyway, the bottom line is... we're around each other and if this...
*thing* grabs hold of us agin at the wrong place... the wrong time, an'
we're dead.

__I Walk The Mordor Line__
Sam: Well, I'm sure as hell glad I don't have to drink this yellow water
they have here in Mordor. (SMASHes Phial of Galadriel on the ground)
This song is for yer ol' Dark Lord. /Welll I shot an orc in Moria...
Just to watch him diie.../ (The Orcs go wild!)
Aragorn: Tell me you don' love me.
Eowyn: I don' love you.
Aragorn: Liaar.
Frodo: Ah cain't remember the taste of food, nor the touch of grass...
Ah'm naked in the dark with nohap 'tween me an... tha wheel of fire!
Frodo: /Welll I fell down, in a burnin' ring of fire.../
__Jarhobbit__
Gimli: I didn't know you spoke Orcish.
Gandalf: It's alright. That man there is the Mouth of Sauron. He says
we shot one of his Nazgul mounts. See? Eight Nazgul; Seven Mounts.
Legolas: One of them is missing. Nazgul Mounts are highly prized in that society.
I'm afraid we just created more enemies.
Pippin: Heelll yeah! You ever seen one of them's head explode?
(others glare at Pippin as the uneasy standoff continues. Finally, the
Mordorians withdraw behind the gates and disappear over the horizon in
the blinding heat.)
Gimli: What I wanna know is, when the hell are we gonna see some action???
-------
Pippin: That's a bunch of rah-rah happy horseshit. I'm from Tuckborough. Tooxas.
I know all them wizards that got us into this mess. Rich old white fuckers,
ever' las' one of em. They got their hands asses to elbows in hobbit pipeweed.
M-f'ers smoke it like it's tobacco.
Sam: (screw) politics. We're here. That's all that matters.
-------
[EXT Frodo, Sam and Gollum are fighting on the slopes of mount doom.]
Frodo: (V/O) We turned our Fellowship into a circus in hopes that our
companionship and our desire to destroy the Ring would protect us.
[freeze frame on Frodo, Sam, and Gollum]
But we are... insane... to believe this.

__King Sauron__ directed by Peter Jackson.
Frodo: So you're saying this guy Isildur washed up on shore with nothing but a
map pointing the way to this... mountain... and you want to shoot a film about
rings there? Alright then.
(Starts writing) What's the name of this mountain?
Gandalf: I'll tell you, but you won't like it.
(Sam Pauses in his gardening to listen.)
Frodo: Com'on Gandy, you dragged me into this, just spell it out for me.
Gandalf: It has a.... local name.
Frodo: (points to Sam) Shh.
Gandalf: (Mouths the words)
Frodo: (Looks at what he has just written)
"MOUNT DOOM"
__Mordoriana__ starring George Clooney
Gandalf: You want to know what I think? I think that less than 100 years ago,
your people were living in holes in a primitive, matriarchal society and having
12 children and giving gifts to people on your birthday. I think that you realize
that one day the pipeweed will run out, and you'll be left with nothing but that
gold ring to invest. I think you realize that every evil creature for 1,000 miles
knows you're here and is already out to get you. So yes, on behalf of my firm,
I accept your offer.
--------
Gollum: Everything's fine in Mordor until you get investigated.
Frodo: I want you to understand something, Smeagol, and I want to use the
Voice of Command to make myself perfectly clear. You swore an oath
on the Precious. If ANYTHING -- an investigation, a rumor that the
Ring of power has been found -- then first -- your alter ego, Gollum,
will die. His body will never be found. Then I will command you to
choke. And you will obey me. And finally, if you so much as touch
me again, then whatever it is you do for fun -- rock climbing --
spelunking -- a terrible accident will happen. you will be cast
yourself into the fires of Doom. Do you understand me?
I want to make sure that you understand me.
Gollum: Mandos Rules, eh Master? Very well...

Thanks for the reply! :-) I wasn't expecting anything, and my searches
of various web reports to find out who presented what prize was rather
fruitless. The grand conclusion I can now draw is that Michael O'Neill
was talking rubbish, about the Oscars at any rate. :-)

Huh.
Look, it was the run up to Paddy's Day.
I wasn't going to poast something about gay shepherds.
