ABC has released its first promo for this year's Oscar broadcast, showcasing the comedy stylings of hosts James Franco and Anne Hathaway. It's short but also... kinda fun? Mostly it's satisfying to watch Anne Hathaway be tackled to the ground.

The Hollywood rumor mill says James Franco and Anne Hathaway will host the next Oscars. We can support Hathaway handling hosting duties, but who wants Franco turning the Gay Superbowl into his personal performance art project? Update: It's official.
The Way We Live Now: finally being recognized for our brilliance. Winning the Nobel Prize in Economics while the global economy's as shitty as this is a lot like winning Juiciest Cow at the Slaughterhouse. It's...an honor.

The 2010 Emmy nominees were announced this morning and they were full of old standards (Mariska Hargitay... again) and surprises (a show on USA that isn't Monk got a nomination!). Let's take a look at the list, shall we?
Emmy Award nominations will be announced tomorrow morning. They do a really crappy job of rewarding the best in television, so we thought we'd call out some great people who will never get nominated in a million years.
Bulwer-Lytton prize! Bulwer-Lytton prize! They announced the 2010 Bulwer-Lytton prize for bad writing! Ha, "we didn't win," although there is always next year. Click through for some bad writing to treasure forever, like a beloved dog's cremated genitals.
