And the whole thing will end in a Bollywood dance sequence, where MASSIVE SURPRISE:
Hugh Jackman's shirt comes off.
A massive Bollywood dance sequence where Hugh Jackman loses his shirt sounds much more entertaining than anything else the Oscars throw up each year (although as I haven't watched them for about 15 years I suppose I should not be allowed to comment). In fact, the only section of the Australia trailer that wasn't hopelessly awful involved him losing his shirt.
ReplyDeletehaha, Mr Mourinho, I wasn't that successful on my predictions but there we go. I did see that Jackman got out of doing lyrics about Holocaust drama The Reader by singing:
ReplyDelete"The Reader, I haven't seen the Reader, I should have seen the Reader...."
