Oscars Stuff on the Internet Rundown!

While I was away this week (by away I mean actually doing work at work), Oscar nominations came out. There weren't really any surprises this year, besides Winter's Bone being nominated for Best Picture. Seriously, that movie should have been called "Winter's Bore" (and with that zinger I'm back!).

Since I love movies and the internet, here are a bunch of things that I've come across dealing with the Oscars:

The Best Picture Oscar Nominees in Lego:

Gawker (or in this case Defamer) has a round up of all the Best Picture nominees in Lego format (or exactly what it sounds like based on the title above). Below is one of my favorite from that Fat Boy Slim video (wait, that's Inception. My bad). 

Oscar Nominations: The Movie Trailer:

Another thing that is exactly what it sounds like. This is helpful if you haven't seen every movie that's been nominated. It helped me realize that Kenny Power's brother from East Bound and Down was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his work as a meth head in Winter's Bone. Seriously, that movie was boring, but he was the best part of it. 

If Best Picture Movie Posters Told the Truth:
Here are some photoshoped posters that tell you what each movie is really about. Here's my favorite:

ABC's Oscar Promos with James Franco and Anne Hathaway:

James Franco and Anne Hathaway are hosting this years award show, and judging by the promo, it doesn't look bad (obviously it won't be as exciting as Ricky Gervais, but whatever). 

That's it. So check out everything above and then watch the Oscars to see who wins. It's not like there's anything else going on that deserves your attention more...

PS - Just kidding about that last statement. I've wanted to write something that's self important and holier than thou for a while. It feels good.
