Rog, please, campaign for all those proud outh -- ARTHOUSE PICTURES for the best-picture OSCAR®. It has been our dream to see the OSCARS® tank in the ratings, all it needs is for your dream to become a reality. Go for it!

Among the publications that acknowledged Cronenberg’s work were (that is, aside from this very column): Entertainment Weekly, New York magazine, Rolling Stone, People, Us Weekly, two columns each in the New York Daily News and Philadelphia Inquirer, Newsday, the Denver Post and the New York Times’ Arts & Leisure section.

There's not a decent publication in the whole damned list. DOUBLE GO FOR IT!

P. S. Rog never stops telling us the Golden Globs predict nothing. We're ready to bet this year they will: if their ratings plunge -- and with the all-genius line-up of BEST PICTURE NOMINEES it has a chance -- then watch out, OSCARS®! It already has an emcee problem (and we think Mr. Top-10 was auditioning for them); bring on the hermetically-sealed genius and who knows how low you'll go! Which leads us to another prediction: We predict if Rog is right the ACADEMY® will enjoy ITS LOWEST RATINGS EVER. Indeed if this becomes a fight between GE BANCORP and REALTY's PC pics this will be a PR DISASTER, with endless blatherskite about how "out of touch" the Academy® is. One suggestion to hype interest: the men should wear some spectatcular evening gowns.
