This year’s annual Independent Spirit Awards is getting a pinch more comedy injected into it’s veins with its latest host, Patton Oswalt. The charismatic film buff has hosted his fair share of award ceremonies, but his love of cinema has him nervous and excited at the same time to do his hosting duties for the big day. There’s a lot of attention being brought on this year’s award show due to the new host and the intriguing “statues” that they’ll be handing out. For those who don’t know, they’ll be replacing the iconic Independent Spirit Award statues with live birds, so this particular ceremony will be quite memorable.<\/p>\n

\"patton<\/a><\/p>\n

Earlier this morning myself and a few journalists spoke to Patton Oswalt about the Independent Spirit Awards, but we wanted to ask more than that. How were they going to handle a bunch of birds flying around the awards show? While they didn’t answer a question as to whether or not they could escape, fly around the tent and possibly defecate on a star or two, he did talk to us about his preparation on dealing with the feathered creatures. <\/p>\n

Have you been prepping for dealing with live birds? Have you been spending time with birds, taking birds out to dinner? Are you ready to work with birds?<\/p>\n

Patton Oswalt:<\/strong> I feel pretty ready. I\u2019ve been going down to the park a lot, chasing them around, yelling at them, so we\u2019ll see. I\u2019m trying to just get over\u2026 it\u2019s kind of weird, I probably shouldn\u2019t say this, but I have a paralyzing fear of birds so I have 2 weeks to get over this life-long terror I have. I don\u2019t think it\u2019ll effect my performance but we\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n

What happens in case one of the birds dies?<\/p>\n

Patton Oswalt:<\/strong> Anyone whose bird dies will be given a baby cougar. <\/p>\n

Do the winners actually keep them?<\/p>\n

Patton Oswalt: <\/strong>I think that\u2019s going to be up to the individual winners. They can keep them, they can set them free. Trust me, I know actors, I know directors, there\u2019s all kinds of things they could do with birds, some I would rather not go into.<\/p>\n

\"ISA\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Mr. Oswalt continues on, telling us about some of his favorite movies of this past year that have been nominated for an Independent Spirit Award.<\/p>\n

What was it about this awards ceremony that really drew you to hosting it this year?<\/p>\n

Patton Oswalt:<\/strong> For me, being the kind of film buff that I am, this award show digs pretty deep into trying to find movies that took risks and rolling the dice. It rewards people that are clearly emerging that are going to be doing great stuff with their careers, and you can see them early. What I also love is that they keep an eye open for veterans like Robert Redford and Bruce Dern who continue to take risks and seek out challenging, different material. It\u2019s a continuation of that process of risk and independence that the ISA\u2019s really embrace and try to bring attention to.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s so many wonderful movies that didn\u2019t get enough love at say the Oscars this year that are getting love here at the Independent Spirit Awards. Which ones do you kind of hope come out of here with a live bird this year?<\/p>\n

Patton Oswalt<\/strong>: “The Spectacular Now” I thought was fantastic. “Enough Said,” I hope Enough Said wins everything it gets nominated for. The documentary \u201cThe Act of Killing,\u201d I thought it was crucial, hard to watch but crucial. And then I really hope that Bruce Dern wins for \u201cNebraska\u201d because I thought he was just amazing. That guy\u2019s had awards coming for a long time in my opinion, so that would be great.<\/p>\n

So we were wondering how you prepare to host the show like this. Do you spend time to watch all the movies<\/p>\n

Patton Oswalt:<\/strong> I watch as many movies as I can. I huddle with all my funny comedian friends and we sit and write jokes, but I try to be very, very aware of who\u2019s going to be there. When I host other award shows, when it comes down to the night of the show you really have to watch the show and be aware of what\u2019s going on out there, and bring that out to what you\u2019re doing. Every time you go back out on stage be present. Real stuff is happening all around you; you\u2019ve got to comment on it. <\/p>\n

Are you surprised by the rise of Independent Spirit Award nominee Matthew McConaughey?<\/p>\n

Patton Oswalt:<\/strong> No, not at all. He just kicked his career into this turbo level the past couple of years if you watched \u201cKiller Joe\u201d and \u201cMud,\u201d and then this year especially with \u201cDallas Buyers Club.\u201d He steals the whole movie with one scene in \u201cThe Wolf of Wall Street.\u201d He\u2019s amazing. He\u2019s doing it now on all fronts. The only thing I could think of what he\u2019ll do next is a play somewhere, and I wouldn\u2019t put that beyond his abilities at this point. <\/p>\n

Do you think that the Independent Spirit Awards is a pretty good predictor of who\u2019s going to win the Oscar?<\/p>\n

Patton Oswalt:<\/strong> I think it goes beyond that. I think that the independent spirit awards are an important predictor of who you\u2019re going to be rooting for in the Oscars ten years down the road. That\u2019s what makes it so exciting for me, that this is like giving an award to Martin Scorsese in 1971 for \u201cWho\u2019s Knocking On My Door.\u201d You\u2019re seeing people that in the beginning of their, I\u2019m going to use the word journey, but it really is. These are the future masters that you\u2019re watching when they\u2019re young, and it makes it that much more crucial and stressful for me. I really want to do well by these guys, because these are the people that are going to be making movies down the road that we\u2019re going to be fighting over at the Oscars.<\/p>\n
