The Oscars

Two Down, Many More to Go: oscar_short.jpgLooks like the Oscars are into the whole group thing after all, as Nikki Finke reports that producers approached Ben Stiller and Robert Downey Jr. to host the show together. Good move, but the duo declined, which probably owes a little bit to Downey Jr’s ultra-packed schedule right now (and may rule out our dream co-host Tina Fey). Is it too late to approach Paranormal Activity’s Katie Featherston and Micah Sloat and simply shoot the whole thing on video? [Deadline]
