Makes more sense than giving one to Lauren Bacall.

But it won't be part of the main Oscar ceremony. I.e., we won't see it
in the Oscarcast, other than a few brief clips. How awesome would it
have been to have it in the main Oscarcast and have EVERYBODY who owes
their career to Corman come up and thank him?

All on one stage: Jack Nicholson, Francis Coppola, Martin Scorsese,
Peter Bogdanovich, Joe Dante, Ron Howard, Allan Arkush, Carl Franklin,
James Cameron, John Sayles, Jonathan Demme, Jonathan Kaplan, etc.,
etc., etc.

Actually you won't even see brief clips. The Academy has said it won't
be filmed in any way. This is a slap in the face to all film buffs.

Stargate Universe SGU: It puts the "U" in "SUCKS"!
It's the show 'Defiling Gravity' would be if DG had more regulars,
fewer abortions, worse writers, and no budget for lighting.
Remember, you can't spell "disgust" without SGU!

Imagine the reaction shot of Jack Nicholson as they show a clip of
him in The Raven.

Well, here's something to prove the genre Lives!

while watching a feature length movie and not need a bathroom break.)
