== Transcript ==
Thank you all, thank you all. I'd like to thank the Academy for this award. But I got a little something to say about the Oscars: what happened to them? They used to have so much of that prestige, but now it's more or less become trash TV. Seriously, Jerry Springer or Maury Povich oughta host next year's edition. The Oscars have become an utter embarrassment, shooing away great movies, animated movies in particular, such as The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie in favor of Shark Tale, for example. Wreck-It Ralph is a video game movie, doesn't deserve an Oscar. The Lego Movie is based on a toy, doesn't deserve one either. The Academy has become completely out-of-touch with what their audiences want, sometimes even biased. Animation is not a genre meant solely for kids, it's a medium meant for EVERYONE. What I'm saying is that the Oscars got a lot of growing up to do. Thanks for listening.
