Twilight? Seriously Oscar, Twilight?!
Hollywood Reporter announced earlier today that Twilight stars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will be announcing awards at the Academy Awards. I didn't know that the Oscar's were desperate for the 12 year old demographic, but apparently the inclusion of Miley Cyrus and Zac Efron suggests that they are. I'm all for the Academy branching out to recognize and feature stars outside of the mainstream or even foreign stars (Felinni did receive 12 nominations from the group after all), but to include such nominal stars of a niche group seems questionable and may move the needle in the other direction. On another note, voters have just over a week to get ballots in and sneak in viewings of films they have yet to see (if any of them care to see The Last Station or Il Divo).
