The Onion "CGI Team Creates Realistic Oscar..." [thx]
Also...Mondo Musicals is doing a whole series of posts on Little Shop of Horrors. A good time for it too, what with Ellen Greene's resurgence on Pushing Daisies. I love "Little Shop" -can't tell you how many times I've listened to the CD over the years. 'Feed me Mondo, feed me (posts) all night long. You can do it...'

I think I speak for all my fellow opinionated Australians when I say that Tilda Swinton must be Julia.
Peter Garrett and Cate Blanchett (surely set for a future in the nation's politics) can play themselves.
I love xkcd :)
And I'm predicting Cotillard.
wow! that little shop article is great! where did you ever find that blog? =p
Yeah, the Tilda/Julia similaties are uncanny (I've been saying so for a while now). And we know Tilda is cool, she'd totally be down a random Australian polical biopic, right? I think I've decided I'm going to predict her. Just for a laugh (a hopeful laugh, mind you).
Also that cartoon was very funny. The amount of times I've stopped myself from going to bed because someone was wrong on the internet is uncountable.
I saw that comic too, yesterday. I printed it out and put it up on my whiteboard. Just me remind me: no, that's NOT actually a good reason to develop a sleep deficit ;-)
The Oscars are the "standard bearer" of excellence? LOL, that's so wrong. Ruby Dee can so easily win supporting actress this year.
Hey there, thanks for giving my blog a shout-out! I've added you to my links list. There is more Little Shop material coming...sometime...
