Twitter Revives The Oscars' Pulse

The 84th Annual Academy Awards were always going to be safe and snooze-y. Fortunately, there is an entire Twittersphere buzzing with jokes, laughs and Oscars-related puns. Here are ten of our favorites:

1. "No one in North Korea is allowed to speak, so maybe they'll win Best Actor next year." — @KimJongNumberUn

2. "And Americans claim they don't believe in torture." — @holysmoke

3. If Santorum wins, Hollywood "will be replaced by 1950s public information films about the evils of masturbation" — @meganganz

4. "Billy Crystal is a great host. And The Oscars are the best parasite." — @MikeDrucker

5. "Strangely, even after knowing which movie old white people liked, my life still feels hollow of real meaning." — @bob_calhoun

6. "Oh yeah, Iranians won and now French people are kissing. Rick Santorum is freaking out." — @kellyoxford

7. "The only people who look in the mirror and think, 'Perfect!' are murderers and Bradley Cooper." —@TheBigDowg

8. "I hope Chris Rock is smothering Billy Crystal with a pillow backstage." — @TheBigDowg

9. "It cannot be easy being married to Meryl Streep. It must be impossible to tell when she is faking it.” — @charlesarthur

10. "BREAKING: in renewed bid for Oscars recognition, Michael Bay announces next Transformers movie will be black+white silent with piano score." —@TheTweetOfGod
