Oscar Watch: Slumdog Kids Fly In, Jackman Drills for the Big Night
Thompson On Hollywood — So yes, the Slumdog Millionaire kids are taking their first airplane to attend the Oscars. Excellent move. It will play all over the world. Not one to miss a multiple click opportunity, Arianna Huffington hands out political Oscars. While Kris Tapley sees a foreign film upset, I'm positive Waltz with Bashir ...

Hugh Jackman is getting ready...
For Cinephiles by a Cinefille — And this video proves it. I know some people are apprehensive about Hugh Jackman hosting the Academy Awards because he isn't well, Jon Stewart. Let's face it, the stand up comedians are great at hosting but because Jackman has natural ability as a live performer (See: The Boy From Oz), I think he will rock the Academy Awards. Plus, I'm a sucker for song and dance numbers.

MD Poll: Gold Rush
Movie Dearest — After four weeks and over four hundred votes each, the 2008 MD Oscar Polls are now closed. And the winners are ... not that far off from who everyone is predicting will take home the gold tomorrow night at the real Academy Awards.

The Bagger in L.A.: Will Oscar Dance His Way Over the Top?
Carpetbagger — The Bagger, along with a bunch of other ninnies, has been very excited to see what Bill Condon and Laurence Mark are going to come up with to shake the Oscar show out of its torpor. And then he saw a leaked video and it left him feeling just the smallest bit terrified. The top hat freaks him out. There are all kinds of ways that the Oscars could be improved, but the Bagger has never been a Broadway big number kind of guy. One showstopper great, a bunch would be like, well, a matinee watched from the cheap seats. Still, there are all kinds of innovations afoot, and a couple of clips do not an evening make. The Bagger will be in the ...

All Signs Are Pointing to Jackman
Awards Daily — The LA Times’ Patrick Goldstein talks up the decision to go with two different producers this year and seems to suggest that the host will once again be Hugh Jackman. The question remains, though – how much of the show’s success last year was on Jackman and how much was on the Condon/Mark combo?: Still, it’s a safe, emergency-swing style choice. More than anything else, it reflects the fact that the show put on by last year’s producer team was a hit with many industry insiders, in large part because it earned the telecast its ...
