Bruce Campbell

Suggested By: Alex Beadle (Facebook)

Past Form: Campbell has a big following, even if it's not exactly mainstream. But maybe that's what the Oscars needs - an injection of B-Movie cred. Campbell hasn't presented a lot, but he's got a mouth on him…

Show Highlights: Sam Raimi can direct a special segment where the host gets abused in a variety of inventive ways.

And what awards show wouldn't benefit from some ancient demons on the stage? Hell, they let Jack Nicholson attend every year…

Sample Speech: "Keep your damn filthy bones outta my mouth."
 

Quentin Tarantino

Suggested By: John Hudson (Facebook)

Past Form: A chatty chap, he's been to enough awards shows as recipient and presenter to know the drill. Plus, as John suggests, he's such a motormouth that the Oscars would be over in half an hour and everyone can get to the bar.

Show Highlights: He can edit the montages in his own, chronology-skipping, violence-adding style. And we can't wait to see what he'd do with the In Memoriam segment.

Plus, he can bring some of his cool casts back together and script their presenting remarks. Expect a tidal wave of pop culture riffs and profanity.

Sample Speech: "Let me tell you what An Education is about. It's all about a girl who digs a guy with a big d**k. The entire movie. It's a metaphor for big d***s."

Next: Robert Downey Jr, Samuel L Jackson
