Borat's cure for boredom

The planning for the 2007 Academy Awards is still in the very early stages. In fact, the pundits predicting frontrunners based on gossip -- without having seen so much as a trailer -- have plenty of time to reposition their forecasts. But I'm really, really hoping that Sacha Baron Cohen wrangles a presenter position. If the ceremony is dragging (and Ellen DeGeneres can only do so much), a little moment with Borat, Baron Cohen's Kazakhstani alter ego coming to the big screen on Nov. 3, could be the right touch to deflate the stuffy self-importance of the event.
