Seth MacFarlane won’t be hosting the Oscars again!

Seth MacFarlane

I think we can mostly agree that the 2013 Oscars weren't exactly the best they've ever been. They were a decent try and there were some good bits, but it just never came together. Well, for those of you hoping the rumors that Seth MacFarlane would come back to host again in next year were true, turns out that's not going to happen MORE

So the Oscars were last night …

Daniel Day-Lewis, Jennifer Lawrence, Anne Hathaway, and Christoph Waltz

Look, I'll be blunt with you: At this point, we've gone through so many awards show that the thrill of recapping them is kinda ... gone. It's like when you first move out of your parent's place and realize that nothing is stopping you from eating ice cream all day: Eventually, the thrill diminishes and you get bloaty and your voiding starts coming out frozen. That's what this has become. So instead of spreading this out over an entire day, we're MORE

The 85th Annual Academy Awards

It's that time of the year again: the 85th Annual Academy Awards are a-coming, and once again we all have to pretend like we don't know exactly who will win.

Anyway, here's the list of the big awards, via HuffPo, because these are really the only ones I can make informed bets on when it comes time to make my Oscar pool.

Adele

Yes, The 85th Academy Awards are just around the corner, and the list of potential nominees for Best Original Song is out.

From The Hollywood Reporter: Among the artists included in the shortlist are Adele for "Skyfall" from the James Bond pic; Katy Perry's "Wide Awake" from her 3D concert film; Keith Urban's "For You" MORE

The Oscars vs. MTV Movie Awards

MTV Movie Awards

Normally, when an awards show happens and I need to pad things out for the day, I'll just post the headline "So [INSERT NAME OF AWARDS HERE] happened last night ...", make a couple jokes about how they're useless/a metaphorical circle-jerk for Hollywood's elite, post the award winners, and then point out all the ways the show failed. But today I'm going to do something different. Since more humor can be wrung from comparing two different MORE

Today it was announced that instead of the usual suspects, The 83rd Annual Academy Awards (taking place on February 27th) are going to be hosted by James Franco and Anne Hathaway, in an attempt to lure in younger viewers to all the 'excitement'.
