I don’t know how many of you have recently watched the 1964 claymation classic “Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer“.  It was on TV recently, and I don’t know… it’s, well, it’s really creepy.  Did I not realize that when I was young?  The claymation is terrifying, there’s a strange shrill noise when Rudolph’s nose lights up, and all of the characters aren’t so much lovable, more like menacing.  Call me scrooge, but I think the movie-makers were on a drug trip.

It’s being reported that Hugh Jackman will host this year’s Academy Awards.  They claim it’s a new look for the Oscars.  

I guess he’s “classy”, but I’m kind of partial to the idea that the host is funny and, well, entertaining?

Hugh Jackman fans:  feel free to defend him.
