Ben Still Wants Some Oscar Love!

Should the Oscars create a comedy category?

Although we sorta feel like there's enough praise and awards in Hollywood, we totally agree with Ben Stiller on this one. Speaking out about the Oscars, the funnyman says "It's just too bad that comedies don't get recognized. It just seems like there's this huge hole there where there's no recognition for people who over the years—and this is for years and years, you know—have been doing such great work."

Ben isn't alone. 40-Year-Old Virgin, Old School, Knocked Up and almost every other funny movie of the last five years director Judd Apatow tweeted "Since comedies are rarely up for Oscars, it does make sense to have a comedy category. It's been like five times in a zillion years that a comedy has won best picture."

What do you think? Should Knocked Up been Up for Best Picture in 2007 over films like Babel and The Queen??
