You said it yourself, PixelBot: "Sex has been done a million times before." Especially, you could've added, by Crispin. Why do they get a free pass for repeating themselves? The problem isn't that the website is offensive, it's that it's unoriginal. Which is all the more ironic given that it's for an award show whose very raison d'etre is to honor fresh thinking.
I also think Comrade Bernbucks makes an excellent point about the nature of the awards themselves. The website does nothing to challenge or change that perception.
Of course, there are far too many award shows as it is - and I don't see the need for this one. The very fact that there is an award show season shows how grotesquely out of hand this industry-wide circle jerk has gotten. But that's another rant for another time. . .
Hey, PixelBoy, you don't happen to know who that fetching brunette with the glasses is, do you?

The Bud Light stuff's nice, but the coaster idea seems awfully similar to Molson's twin label campaign.
Anyone know who the cute model in the Dove ad is? (Am I pathetic or what?)
