As you may have heard, the Academy Awards will be held this Sunday evening in Hollywood. Who’s gonna win an Oscar? We’ll see. Pundits like EW’s crack panel say there’s a good chance that Helen Mirren will walk away with a statuette for her work in The Queen, while Forest Whitaker is a favorite to take home a little gold guy for playing Idi Amin in The Last King of Scotland. Jennifer Hudson, most agree, will probably win a Best Supporting Actress prize for her debut role in Dreamgirls, and her costar Eddie Murphy may also snag a trophy. But which movie will win the Best Picture award? Smart money’s on the folks from The Departed or Babel heading up on stage and grabbing their … wait a sec, PopWatchers, I’ve run out of Oscar nicknames! Academy Award. Oscar. Statuette. Little gold guy. Prize. Trophy. Oh no! Bad time for this to happen, considering all the stuff we’ve gotta write in the next week. I’m racking my brain but coming up with nothing (well, nothing clever or clean, at least). Paperweight — no. Stiffie — um, NO. Can you help? What else might we call the little gol… I mean, priz… I mean, statuet… I mean, ugh! Your ideas, people, let’s go!

Opportunity to go on and on about their publicist, agent, family, friends, cast, crew..what’s that? The music’s playing already??

The “make it up to you on your next decent, yet undeserving one”, rain check figurine. AKA the Scorsese. If he doesn’t get it this year I’m boycotting the Oscars.

Haha! C3P0! That one’s dynamite!
Doug
Why don’t we just go with Jim Carrey’s “King of all knick-Knacks”
The token that cements my status as an actor as being closer to that of Helen Hunt (1-for-1) than Peter O’Toole (0-for-7, and counting).
Bob
O to the S to the C A R – You’re tasty!
Phallic symbol?
