Oscar 2012 Original Song Playlist

39 original songs are included in the Oscar 2012 long list. The best chances to be nominated have songs from "DAM999", "The Muppets" and "Rio", with 3 songs each; "Gnomeo & Juliet", "Happy Feet Two" and "Winnie the Pooh" with 2 songs.


This list features famous musicians, like Robbie Williams, Elton John, Lady Gaga, Mary J. Blige; actors who starred in musicals, like Jason Segel, Amy Adams, Anne Hathaway; and young artists.

Before the every song I wrote who performed it, so don't confuse it with its composers and lyrics writers.

You will know the 84th Academy Awards nominations on Tuesday, January 24, 2012. And winners will be announced on February 26, 2012. I'm so exited to watch this ceremony!

"The Muppets" (2011) - "The Pig With The Froggy Tattoo" parody trailer

I saw one parody trailer, where all Muppets along with two humans went crazy and made fun of some horror films. Then I just couldn't stop myself. I found another one and I loved it. It is a great parody of "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" trailer. All the details, very similar soundtrack, tense atmosphere and those huge blinking titles match perfectly. "The Pig With The Froggy Tattoo" is one more thing that makes me like this upcoming film even more (I'm talking here about "The Muppets").

Starring Jason Segel, Amy Adams, Chris Cooper.

Release dates - November 23, 2011 (Canada, USA), February 10, 2012 (UK).

More about "The Muppets"!

P.S. It isn't that "big" post, I was talking about. That one will come up in a few days.

"The Muppets" posters are going crazy, stupid... love?

Yesterday four new couple posters were revealed on "The Muppets" Facebook page. I like them, because they are funny, colourful and with very suitable titles. What can be good for an all-ages animated film? Wait a minute. Aren't these posters seem to be familiar? Yes, they do, if you've seen posters for this summer's romantic comedy called "Crazy, Stupid, Love". That posters were made in similar colours, with 2-3 characters and similar phrases on them. And did you noticed their background?

I post just two of "Crazy, Stupid, Love" posters, it you want to see them all, click here.
