If you won an Oscar. - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Jrnygrl · 06-30-2004, 05:43 PM

Not sure if this topic has been posted before, but I am curious about this. Some actors who win Oscars say they don't display them and some say they have put them in their bathrooms, away in closets or use them as door stops.

If I won I don't think I would hide it. If I didn't want to be so obvious about how I felt about it, I think I would give them to a parent, but I don't think I would be so ashamed at my achievement that I would hide them.

What would you do with an Oscar that you won?

Are you kidding?

I'd build a special room in my house to display it in!

I'd probably put it above the fireplace or something.

consentida · 06-30-2004, 10:44 PM

I'd probably end up using it as a door stop too.

I'd probably just have it on a shelf or something.

I'd stick it on top of my Christmas tree.

I'd put it in the case with the rest of them.

I would put it in a glass cabinet where my cat couldn't knock it down. Why would anyone put one in their closet or use them as doorstops? It's an award. Film is a form of art. Anyone who wins one should be proud of the work they did to deserve it.

I'd put it in a special room like TJL and takes pictures of it and put them all over my damn house!

i'd throw it out of the way and let it decompose.

It'd probably go straight to my bedroom, next to my giant movie collection.
