It’s never been so good. Brad Pitt and George Clooney, two of Hollywood’s biggest pranksters, face the gauntlet at the Oscars as they go head-to-head in an epic ‘showdown’. This is the kind of drama that gossip sites love, especially when it comes to these two competing in the same category.

Both ‘Moneyball’ and ‘The Descendants’ showed Pitt and Clooney at their best. They both have what it takes to walk away with an Oscar this year, but they also face what has been described as the ‘French George Clooney’ : Jean Dujardin. So this year it looks like we have two George Clooney’s up against one Brad Pitt. It’s going to be tough.

Check out their performances in these preview trailers below. The Oscar ceremony gets underway in a few hours. What will you be expecting from this year’s show? Can Billy Crystal pull out some good one-liners for these two? Let’s wait and see.
