A mysterious Hollywood blog announced this week that it was in possession of a leaked letter that prematurely announced the winners of tonight’s Oscars. To see the letter and the list of winners click the image above, or click here.

The blog has suddenly been taken down, which makes some insiders believe the leak may be true.

“The document,” Academy spokesperson Leslie Unger said, “is a complete fraud.”

It’s only appropriate that an industry that blurs the line between reality and fantasy should have a controversy like this.

We’ll all know in a few hours who’s telling the truth.

I think it’s probably bogus. Algore and Bari are not on the list.

Yep. I really hate to miss the show and all the self important, vacuous America hating and Obama cheering, but I must continue to confirm Hollywood's opinion and clean my pistols.

Could someone maybe watch it and tell me how long it takes for some pretty air-head to mention Bush/Cheney or Obama?

Thanks.

AlBORE got his for his GloBULL warming Dronathon years ago...

this list seems to be intuitive (everyone is saying)except they honored Iron Man for effects.. they honoring Dark Knight, so they can’t honor 2 Comic book movies in the same year... that’s not .... Intellectual!!

There are much better things on TV tonight, I hear Channel 7 is running a test pattern.

I’m sticking to watching “Cousin Vinny”, or maybe “Casablanca” on our DVD player. I’ve seen nothing this past year that I would consider note worthy. If they had an award for the worst movies there wouldn’t be enough Oscars to go around.
