Q & A: How Willimon Runs Fincher's 'House ...Steve Martin's Letter to Eddie; Paramount's $700 Million Revamp; Dragon Tattoo Preview Reaction
Steve Martin penned an open, perhaps unsolicited, but totally charming letter to new Oscar host Eddie Murphy. Martin included some sage advice about hosting, including these highlights:
The losers can feel very sad, so when you're backstage with them, pat their backs, then shake your head sadly. It's a blast! If you feel tired midway through, give Neil Patrick Harris a Red Bull and throw some sheet music at him.
The reaction to a ten-minute preview of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo was far from enthused. Responses included "easily forgettable," "very boring," "ugh," as reported on HSX Forum.

The 10-minute 'Dragon Tattoo' preview can be misleading. People were very underwhelmed by the Avatar 15-minute preview, and love it or hate it, that film was certainly a crowd-pleaser.
