2007 Academy Award Preview
Dear Academy.
On February 25th, as you celebrate your 79th Annual Academy Awards, please consider these lessons
learned from the 78th telecast:
Under no circumstances will an original song be performed with
slow motion scene re-enacting zombies a la "In the Deep" from the Best Picture winning film,
Crash. There will be no green screen body suit presentations as Ben Stiller awkwardly demonstrated,
no big bow ties hiding beautiful actresses like Charlize Theron, and no early music before the winners
open their mouths at the podium. Above all, please respect the mantra, that It's Hard Out Here for a
Pimp. But don't let that sway you from evening the score. Three 6 Mafia 1, Martin Scorsese 1.
