A pirate's favorite letter if not R? The C, of course, as in the sea! Hey, it's a kid's joke, okay. So which of those Best Pictures do you insert the C into? Put it in front of Argo, to make it cargo, which would be something pirates carry aboard their ship.

Answer: Set

The name of Scott Parker's novel, published in 2013, is "My Favorite Letter is H", so by inserting that letter "H" into the end of the word "set" you get "Seth", a popular male name from the Bible, appearing in the book of Genesis, Chapter 4 verse 25. Seth was Adam's third son (after the more famous Cain and Abel). Seth Vinyard is the name of the lead character in "My Favorite Letter is H".

Answer: ears

The song by the Anything Muppet Hillbillies is called "P is my Favorite Letter" and one of the foods they mention is pears (along with popcorn, peanut butter, etc.).

He has a head, a lot of brown hair all over his body, and a pointed tail.

Answer: ear

Mr. Bruchac answered the question with, "Probably B, just B-cuz. But it also is the first letter of my last name, my favorite animal (Bear with me), the color of the earth and, to be honest, the faces of most of humanity--brown." So then, insert B into the word "ear" to complete the title "Flying with the Eagle, Racing the Great Bear." The book is a collection of traditional folk tales from several Indian nations, including the Wampanoag, Cherokee, Osage, Lakota, and Tlingit.

Answer: Hess

Actually Conrad Bassett-Bouchard said his favourite letter was "Probably the blank because it's the best thing to have, but [other than that] I guess I kind of like the letter C more than some people because I like playing defensive strategies, and there are no two-letter words that start with the letter C, so it's pretty useful, for scoring and defense." So insert the letter C into Hess, to turn it into chess, another popular board game.

Answer: Beat

So, insert that "K" into Chef Sinner, to make it "Chef Skinner" the character voiced by actor Ian Holm in "Ratatouille." Those other characters listed are in "Lab Rats" but not "Ratatouille".

Answer: Olden Raspberry

Ashlee did have to concede that, "Jessica burps the alphabet better than me. She has better wind, and she is a much louder belcher."

Those awards are called Razzies for short and they poke fun at the worst performances in film.
