An unlikely and yet stunningly elegant Oscar acceptance speech Sunday night, in the category of Best Animated Short:

Incoporates the bare essentials of any great movie awards speech:

  • Open with polite and humble joke (So heavy)
  • Honor us (Thank you, my supporters)
  • Honor the below-the-line folks (Thank you, all my staff)
  • Honor the craft (Thank you, my pencil)
  • Honor the dame who brought you there (Thank you, Academy)
  • Honor Styx (Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto)

    How hard is that?
