The Oscars, Autotuned

Here’s video of the best montage from last night’s Oscars telecast: the unintentional musicals created by the Gregory Brothers of Autotune the News fame. In the words of James Franco: “Congratulations, nerds.”

And a note to anyone who has autotune and wants to make viral videos: be more like the Gregory Brothers, and less like the guy who aututuned Kirk Douglas’s speech last night:

Listen, it was hard enough looking at Douglas’s decomposing body while trying to decipher his words. It’s gonna take a lot more than autotune and a lousy beat to make this watchable. I think we all know who really needs to be auto-tuned. DUH. Rhymes with WINNING.
