Hollywood IQ (HI-Q) Checklist for Academy Awards Broadcast
100 IQ -You mention in your speech or intro "the ways things are going," "politics today," "crazy state of the country," "after this election," thus wanting to be among the cool kids but not bold enough to be blatantly anti-POTUS.
95 IQ - You make sure to get in a timid jab at this President in your speech or intro. "With who is in office," "After he was elected," "the new President," "With him as President," but you're still too chicken to name him.
90 IQ - Getting fairly stupid here. You outright insult President Trump, expecting praise from your fellow intellectually impaired Hollywooders. You probably didn't even use the title President before you said Trump.
85 IQ - You want your Hollywood friends to really think you are something. In your moment on air, you call President Trump a racist, a bigot, a homophobe, or a xenophobe. You smile and wait for the Pavlovian applause. You shouldn't be allowed to operate a moving vehicle.
80 IQ - You are so intellectually affected that you've been practicing your big moment for days. You want to win the evening. Your comment trashes one of the adult Trump children.
75 IQ - Borderline intellectual competence. You make an obscene comment about the President of the United States. You actually think this is a good thing to do. Not surprisingly, anyone laughing uproariously at your comment also tests at your IQ level.
70 IQ - Needs full time supervision. You deliberately insult the President's 10 year old son. You are trying to hold a good reason for this in your head but you can't remember what the good reason to insult an innocent child was. You feel successful at even a suppressed chuckle from the crowd.
This is one of those times.
As arrogant as the stars may be tomorrow, viewers will see by this easy to follow IQ chart that they have indeed absolutely nothing to be arrogant about.
Author is giving them too much credit here...
I think it’s pretty correct. After all, they are able to memorize lines.
Ping to help you with perspective tomorrow night

Celebrity abuse to conservative viewers have turned them away.
The people who actually watch these award shows are a mystery to me. I mean I realize they must be out there, after all things like the home jewelry shopping network and WNBA actually exist. It must be some combo of gay men and women.

While I love many of her movies ( Little Man Tate, The Brave One, Nell, to name a few ) her activism sadly taints her entire career for me.
The Oscars used to be a hghlight.
This years’ fun will be boycotting them.
HACKSAW RIDGE and HIDDEN FIGURES are terrific, however.
Eerily accurate!
This is going to be the lowest-rated Oscars, ever.
The movies all suck, anyway.
I think it would be enjoyable to watch how they unwittingly (best word ever here) reveal their idiocy.
I love this guy.
45 IQ
Using a doll, you point to where the election touched you...
Wrong! Should read, "After all, they are able to read lines from a teleprompter, after weeks of coaching in the fine art of teleprompter reading".
Haha.. Maybe a little lower now.
35 IQ
I hate America and I’m moving to Canada.
Not all of them.
HACKSAW RIDGE and HIDDEN FIGURES are very worthy.

I agree. What they have to say about anything is just so unimportant. Most of them are good looking, rich and, some are musically and artistically talented, but wisdom? Better look somewhere else for logic and wisdom.
