Jim not at the Oscars

[grinchy steve]

The presenters for this year are announced;

Alan Arkin, Jennifer Hudson, Helen Mirren and Forest Whitaker—as well as Amy Adams, Jessica Alba, Cate Blanchett, Josh Brolin, Steve Carell, George Clooney, Penelope Cruz, Miley Cyrus, Patrick Dempsey, Cameron Diaz, Colin Farrell, Harrison Ford, Jennifer Garner, Tom Hanks, Anne Hathaway, Katherine Heigl, Jonah Hill, Dwayne Johnson, Nicole Kidman, James McAvoy, Queen Latifah, Seth Rogen, Martin Scorsese, Hilary Swank, John Travolta, Denzel Washington and Renée Zellweger.

Performers include Amy Adams, doing a song from ENCHANTED, Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova performing their nominated song from ONCE, and Jamia Simone Nash doing a song from August Rush.

I think it's a shame that Jim Carrey isn't there, since he has the time for it now. And it would be nice to promote 'Horton'. I thought it would be nice to see Carrey and Carell doing something togehter, but as you can see in the list (Alan Arkin, Anne Hathaway, Dwayne Johnson) they go for the cast of "Get Smart", that other big comedy coming out this year.

Thats not fair! Why isn't Jim on the list?! He should be the first one!

Because he's got Jenny/Evan business.
Who wants to sit in a room for 4 hours, when they can just stay at home and have a BBQ?

[lammy]

Why would he show up if he is not nominated ... LOL - that's just pointless -

[fluffy]

a lot of networking and shmoozing is done before and after the shows......management companies like people to 'show face'.......
