The 2010 Oscars

Shel Dorf who never won an Oscar

VERDICT:  What else would you expect?  CRAPCRAPCRAPCRAPCARP!!!

Tom Shales (who usually wastes column space pining away for Johnny Carson) says it best: "This is the Oscars at its worst."


How to make Oscars NOT CRAP:  
  • Get rid of all the lame awards no one cares about - short documentary?  best editor? gimme a break....  
  • Next, get rid of the bogus tributes (c'mon you guys hated these dead people, admit it!).  
  • Out with the musical numbers and orchestras - what do these have to do with the movies?

Now... 
  • turn the show into a boozy party and just invite the nominees.  
  • interview the drunkest stars saying embarrassing yet revealing things about each other
  • get them tell funny stories about the making of the movies - they love to talk about themselves
  • no script, no rehearsals, shoulder mounted cameras
  •  in the final 10 minutes hand out awards just for Best Movie, Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Director and have everyone turn towards the cameras and say Good Night America!
