Blackwolf @ the Oscars 2011: What to Know

Well, no sooner do I greet you folks again than Oscar Night doth loom upon us! Mo'Nique will be joining Academy President Tom Sherak at the Samuel Goldwyn Theatre in Academy Headquarters in Beverly Hills the morning of January 25th, to announce 10 of the 24 major Academy Awards you'll see LIVE on Sunday, February 27th, on ABC! Those ten, as usual, will be as follows:

Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role
Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role
Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role
Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role
Best Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen
Best Screenplay Based Upon Material Previously Produced or Published
Best Achievement in Directing
Best Foreign Language Film
Best Animated Feature
Best Picture of the Year

And, of course, you know where that leaves me. Now, meet the team:

DON MISCHER, Executive Producer/Director
BRUCE COHEN, Co-Executive Producer
BOB DICKINSON, Lighting Designer
BRUCE VILANCH, Head Writer
DANETTE HERMAN, Coordinating Producer
STEVE BASS, Production Designer
DOUGLASS M. STEWART, JR., Supervisor, Film Package Segments
JAMES FRANCO and ANNE HATHAWAY, Hosts

There. Now you know enough to go on with. And of course, if certain matters are permitted to happen, I shall again (in civilian garb, mind you, and only if they're willing to put up with me) report on the telecast as it happens, on the spot and LIVE from the Southern Hospitality BBQ Bar & Grill at 77th Street and Lexington Avenue. This time, however, I'll be watching things from a booth in the back, where, hopefully, I shan't have a chance to make waves. Further news, and the gory details re the Nominees, are forthcoming!
