I'd like to thank the Academy

Seriously, great job last night. Particularly Hugh Jackman's opening number with elementary school style props and the Pineapple Express bit.

One question, though, why did it take High School Musical 3 to come out for you to claim that the Musical is back and not when Chicago swept the Oscars six years ago including taking the award for best picture. I would think that that would be the bigger indication that the musical was back. But I guess thats just me. And all that jazz.
