I think it is better with a host and the show has a personality

From The New York Times:

Aubrey Plaza "really, really wants to host the Oscars."

Is that an actress or an address? :scratch2:

Aubrey Plaza would be great. She does dry humor well, the celebs in the audience wouldn't know if she was making fun of them or not.

She will probably never be asked to host any awards show after she pulled a Kanye West and stormed the stage at the MTV Movie Awards and tried to steal Will Farrell's Golden Popcorn statue.

She hosted the Spirit Awards well after that.

Hanz Zimmer will be sitting this one out.

Edit : He could be in the running for Blitz, though.

Good for "chlmtslut" for just discovering the rules, I guess?

Well it's news because just two weeks ago Variety (who, I assume, are very familiar with the eligibility rules) thought he could be in the running for double nominations.

I don't know why Clayton Davis still has a job there.

I mean John Williams was nominated for an Oscar just last year for Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, which I believe had a little music in it that had been used before in a movie or two, right?

Then in that instance it had "more than 80%" new score.

Just give the hosting job to Aubrey Plaza and if she wants to do it why the hesitation?

Aubrey Plaza is good in very small doses. An entire night of her schtick would get old before the first award of the night was handed out.

I guess Ask Ketchum studied up on who Plaza was, since they liked this post.

Give Aubrey a shot, it might shake things up a bit.

They really didn't. WB released their FYC pages yesterday. Zimmer's name wasn't on it. The original person was here.

As someone who rarely watches this, I will now 100% watch because of Conan.
