I just wanted to freshen this topic with some very good news...<BR>The academy just announced the host of the Oscar ceremony this year (this sounds completely off topic, but it is not) and back for another round, is the best Oscar host (in my opinion), Billy Crystal!<P>Now why this relates to LOTR is because one of the things that he is extremely famous for while hosting the awards is doing a montage where he places himself in the nominated films, and does very funny things. The best year that he hosted was the year that Titanic was nominated, he placed himself in all the most famous scenes (the drawing scene, most noteably) and additonally sung a song about the charaters to the tune of the Gilligan's Island theme song!<P>Now personally in my opinion, the LOTR films offer plenty of wonderful comic material that the last few hosts have not taken advantage of. Mr. Crystal is a person who really knows how to take advantage of it. So I think it is going to be a really great and funny show. I am going to leave you with this one last tip though... Don't miss the first part of the show, it is most likely going to be really good, and have an ode to LOTR in some way (Because we all know ROTK is of course going to be nominated )
