Tweets Of The Week

The Oscars go Star Trekkin , the Avengers reassemble and much, much more in the latest Tweets of the Week

Oscar weekend means one thing: Twitter feeds around the world filled with running commentaries of every twist and turn at the world's biggest movie awards ceremony. Due to a shortage of sci-fi and fantasy nominees (seriously, how did Looper not get nominated for best original screenplay?) at this year's bash many of the best tweets fall outside SFX ’s remit, however, the show’s unexpected Star Trek obsession proved without a doubt that the Academy clearly have sci-fi at heart:

@SethMacFarlane The Oscars is basically the Kobayashi Maru test.

@WilliamShatner Well I'm upset at @SethMacFarlane . He lured me to Hollywood tonight saying he had a part for me in the new Star Trek movie! Liar! ;-)

@kyle_newman RT if you are still peeved that @WilliamShatner was sporting Trek II circa garb... while sitting on a TNG set.

@DAVID_A_SLADE I friendly note to hollywood screenwriters: If you're going to write Science Fiction, its probably a good idea to know a bit about science.
