84th Academy Awards Trailer Starring Megan Fox and Josh Duhamel

Yes, it’s true… this year’s Academy Awards now have their very own teaser trailer, and even more shocking, it’s actually kind of funny. (Well, except for that punchline, anyway.) The trailer was created with the help of the folks from Funny or Die, and it will even be screening in 2000 theatres starting this weekend. If you ask me, it’s a great way to raise awareness and hopefully connect with the younger audience that they’ve been having so much trouble attracting. I’m not sure that Megan Fox and Josh Duhamel are the coolest choices they could have made to star in it, but hey, at least Megan Fox barely has any lines. What do you think, does this bode well for this year’s Oscar telecast? Check out the teaser trailer after the jump.

    I think this trailer was great!!!!! It will be nice to see Billy back as the host, and it was also nice to see Robin Williams in this, its been awhile for him.

    The end was pretty good.. I don´t mind Megan Fox when she´s quiet but Duhammel is brutal. I know Billy Crystal is a safe choice but I think he´s pretty funny so it could have been worse. It could have been a Brett Ratner produced show.

  • Oh boy, that was dire…

    Even knowing this was an Oscar promo, I was like ‘what the hell is this about’.

  • people can’t get rid of their hate, it was good, dellivered

    I’d rather nail my testicles to a plank than watch Mr.Showtime! Billy Crystal host the Oscars.
    The guy should be collecting his pension, how is this dinosaur going to appeal to anybody under the age of “approaching-death”?
