Interesting writeup...

The title "Review: Politics reigned at the Golden Globes. Too bad Ricky Gervais didn’t notice"

Ummm..... Ricky did notice, and he noticed it before it happened - not that it would take Kreskin to make that prediction.


Then the last line of the review stated: "The commentary would have meant far more if Gervais himself had been brave enough to drop the tired agitator shtick and, for once, read the room."

Ummm he did in fact read the room correctly and called them all out for being the self-ritghteous, self important, arrogant, dooche's that they act like


Lorraine Ali seems to be the one who is "missing everything".....

And the fact is, from the sound of the audience in the video, that a lot of people were laughing.

Of course they laughed. They knew he was going to do something like that. There were however a bunch of solemn looks among the crowd. It looked like they knew when the camera was on them and made the best of it. Id bet you anything there was some pissed off folks there...they just were smart enough not to openly show it too much.

You know the left wing culture on twitter didnt like it with all the articles and tweets I've seen popping up about how unfunny and irrelevant it was.

If something is irrelavant you ignore it

Where'd you read that at?

He took a jab at Leonardo Decrappio who uses private jets to go to places and never practices what he preached. He is talking about the actors who are in the Green movement just like AOC.

Phoenix Calls Out The Hypocripcies

Quote:"Contrary to popular belief, I don't want to rock the boat, but the boat (bleep)," he added. "It's really nice that so many people have come up and sent their well wishes to Australia, but we have to do more than that, right? … It's great to vote, but sometimes we have to take that responsibility on ourselves and make changes and sacrifices in our own lives and hope that we can do that. We don't have to take private jets to Palm Springs for the awards sometimes or back, please."

Calls out the other actors who are green activists

It was the part where the music started playing over him.

Interesting note on the LA Times article about 'reading the room'.

Apparently the LA Times thinks the award show was for the liberal elites in the room, and not the millions at home who make their livelihoods and lifestyles possible.

The full transcript. Brilliant.

Quote:Hello and welcome to the 77th annual Golden Globe Awards, live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel here in Los Angeles. I'm Ricky Gervais, thank you.

You'll be pleased to know this is the last time I'm hosting these awards, so I don't care anymore. I'm joking. I never did. I'm joking, I never did. NBC clearly don't care either — fifth time. I mean, Kevin Hart was fired from the Oscars for some offensive tweets — hello?

Lucky for me, the Hollywood Foreign Press can barely speak English and they've no idea what Twitter is, so I got offered this gig by fax. Let's go out with a bang, let's have a laugh at your expense. Remember, they're just jokes. We're all gonna die soon and there's no sequel, so remember that.

But you all look lovely all dolled up. You came here in your limos. I came here in a limo tonight and the license plate was made by Felicity Huffman. No, shush. It's her daughter I feel sorry for. OK? That must be the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to her. And her dad was in Wild Hogs.

Lots of big celebrities here tonight. Legends. Icons. This table alone — Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro … Baby Yoda. Oh, that's Joe Pesci, sorry. I love you man. Don't have me whacked. But tonight isn't just about the people in front of the camera. In this room are some of the most important TV and film executives in the world. People from every background. They all have one thing in common: They're all terrified of Ronan Farrow. He's coming for ya. Talking of all you perverts, it was a big year for pedophile movies. Surviving R. Kelly, Leaving Neverland, Two Popes. Shut up. Shut up. I don't care. I don't care.

Many talented people of color were snubbed in major categories. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about that. Hollywood Foreign Press are all very racist. Fifth time. So. We were going to do an In Memoriam this year, but when I saw the list of people who died, it wasn't diverse enough. No, it was mostly white people and I thought, nah, not on my watch. Maybe next year. Let's see what happens.

No one cares about movies anymore. No one goes to cinema, no one really watches network TV. Everyone is watching Netflix. This show should just be me coming out, going, "Well done Netflix. You win everything. Good night." But no, we got to drag it out for three hours. You could binge-watch the entire first season of Afterlife instead of watching this show. That's a show about a man who wants to kill himself 'cause his wife dies of cancer and it's still more fun than this. Spoiler alert, season two is on the way so in the end he obviously didn't kill himself. Just like Jeffrey Epstein. Shut up. I know he's your friend but I don't care.

Seriously, most films are awful. Lazy. Remakes, sequels. I've heard a rumor there might be a sequel to Sophie's Choice. I mean, that would just be Meryl just going, "Well, it's gotta be this one then." All the best actors have jumped to Netflix, HBO. And the actors who just do Hollywood movies now do fantasy-adventure nonsense. They wear masks and capes and really tight costumes. Their job isn't acting anymore. It's going to the gym twice a day and taking steroids, really. Have we got an award for most ripped junky? No point, we'd know who'd win that.

Martin Scorsese made the news for his controversial comments about the Marvel franchise. He said they're not real cinema and they remind him about theme parks. I agree. Although I don't know what he's doing hanging around theme parks. He's not big enough to go on the rides. He's tiny. The Irishman was amazing. It was amazing. It was great. Long, but amazing. It wasn't the only epic movie. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, nearly three hours long. Leonardo DiCaprio attended the premiere and by the end his date was too old for him. Even Prince Andrew was like, "Come on, Leo, mate.You're nearly 50-something."

The world got to see James Corden as a fat *****. He was also in the movie Cats. No one saw that movie. And the reviews, shocking. I saw one that said, "This is the worst thing to happen to cats since dogs." But Dame Judi Dench defended the film saying it was the film she was born to play because she loves nothing better than plunking herself down on the carpet, lifting her leg and licking her ass. (Coughs.) Hairball. She's old-school.

It's the last time, who cares? Apple roared into the TV game with The Morning Show, a superb drama about the importance of dignity and doing the right thing, made by a company that runs sweatshops in China. Well, you say you're woke but the companies you work for in China — unbelievable. Apple, Amazon, Disney. If ISIS started a streaming service you'd call your agent, wouldn't you?

So if you do win an award tonight, don't use it as a platform to make a political speech. You're in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg.

So if you win, come up, accept your little award, thank your agent, and your God and **** off, OK? It's already three hours long. Right, let's do the first award.

Savage.

The only ones tone deaf in that room were, about 95% of the people NOT on stage during that opening monologue.....

https://quillette.com/2020/01/06/ricky-g...he-people/

"In a room filled with self-absorbed narcissists, one brave, slightly less self-absorbed narcissist had the balls to speak truth to power—and his name is Ricky Gervais.

If courage had a face, it would be a slightly overweight, pasty British multi-millionaire drinking a pint. Taking the stage to host his fifth and final (allegedly) Golden Globe Awards, Ricky spoke for us, the oppressed, six-figure earning, working middle-class, little guy.

I may not have ever flown on a private jet to a private island with a temple, but I got an upgrade to First Class once, and those warm nuts have a way of seducing you into believing anyone cares about your ****** takes. In fact it was on that flight I was inspired to become an opinion writer. I appreciate your hypocrisy, Hollywood, it makes me feel better about my own...."

Article makes a good case for term limits. All those warm nuts constantly served to the political class.

That was a great article......

Outside of the northeast, most have probably never heard of Turtleboy Sports. This particular site is devoted to calling out scumbags, nudniks, fraudsters, and in general A-Holes of any kind. Most of his stuff is Local to New England/Boston hub but he occasionally hits on a great national story.

Take this rant about Lorraine Ali as an example.

https://turtleboysports.com/humorless-tw...en-globes/

He is also especially good at honing in on and exposing scam/fraud artists Like Kylie Kirkpatrick most recently.


This guy can be a dooche-rocket at times, but he would fit right in on this board when it comes to his overall politics and common sense views on stuff....


I am not soliciting anything for this guy, I just happen to read up on his stuff once in a while and he absolutely hit this one out of the park. - ENJOY

but but but....I'm supposed to be a jew.....what now?

it was DJT on steroids.....that shite was the bees....

Some of these A**holes in the woke media attacked Joker and praised Charlie's Angels. The woke crowd wanted Joker to be canceled just like they want to do with Gervais. Hollywood is going get divided by left actors/comedians/directors/producers like Gervais and Phoenix, the right wing leaning like Clint Eastwood and the far left people like Hanks, Crappio, Griffin, and so forth.
