No, I'm not suggesting the Academy's cool enough to nominate this for anything big, but...



if "Blame Canada" from the South Park movie was nominated, I absolutely think this could make the cut as well. And Ed Helms performing this at the Oscars :funny:

anyone else think it could happen?

No, South Park was actually good as a musical apart from its comedy.

but this movie's gonna make over six times more money than South Park did, canceling that little fact out.

I think it'll happen... it's just like how they chose "It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp" as their Best Song choice just to seem cool a few years back. I don't think anyone considers Best Song a particularly important category, so it's one where they'd be willing to nominate a song like this, I'm guessing.

It will be cool nomination.

If Gonna Fly Now from Rocky got nominated - granted, that was Rocky - which only comprised of a chorus singing the following over and over:

Trying hard now
it's so hard now
trying hard now

Getting strong now
won't be long now
getting strong now

Gonna fly now
flying high now
gonna fly, fly, fly...


...and the movie is still doing big numbers... so, why not, Academy? lol

You really think that's on the same level as Blame Canada? Really, now?

Sorry but are we talking Oscars or MTV Awards?

it doesn't need to be. The movie was about ten times bigger. And Blame Canada's an example of them nominating a comedic song performed in a movie by one of the characters... perfect example.

It's a horrible example! South Park was also a musical. A twisted musical, but a musical nonetheless. The Hangover is...not.

I actually think The Hangover is BP worthy.

Yeah. I said it.

HELMS DREAMS OF OSCAR GOLD FOR STU'S SONG

Funnyman ED HELMS has Academy Award hopes after movie executives at Warner Brothers urged him to submit his half-improvised piano ballad in THE HANGOVER for Oscars consideration.

Helms and director Todd Phillips wrote the tune Stu's Song - about tiger kidnapping, friendship and Las Vegas debauchery - just hours before they shot the scene, and movie bosses were so impressed they insisted the pair got serious about the comic song.

The actor says, "We went through the whole process; I hired, like, an orchestrator to write it out... It's in the running."
Helms performed his Hangover ditty, fully orchestrated, on The Tonight Show on Thursday night (06Aug09).
He also showed off his scat singing skills by performing with fellow guests the Jonas Brothers.
