Funny as hell. Didn't think I liked his comedy, but that was brilliant.

You realise that he was pulled off for over an hour and was awol from the hosting duties, while backstage he was told to "straighten up and fly right or else you're fired" , yeah?Winston_Churchill wrote:
heh that was good, and extremely uncomfortable for those there
i watched about 5 minutes of it last night and he had about 3 jokes that absolutely flopped, didnt seem like he was doing that well that night after his monologue
why? these people make millions of dollars even when their movies suck. They can't take a little roasting? They ought to grow some thicker skin. We make a bigger deal out of these awards than we do about the Nobel Prize awardsPoseidon wrote:
@ The Tourist comment... that movie was honestly one of the worst movies I've ever seen. So fucking predictable.
I do think he stepped out of line though, as funny as his comments were. You save those kind of jokes for shows like The Daily Show, Bill Maher, etc. Not a primetime awards show. Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin were fantastic in hosting the Oscars last year and while they certainly cracked some jokes, they didn't go nearly this far.
Agreed, he's a fucking comedian, there's no dire consequences to him making fun of people a bit. They're getting paid millions of dollars to act in these shitty movies, they can take a fucking joke.Hurricane2k9 wrote:

My favorite part about that was when he looked on the other side of the card, just to double-check that there was nothing else written.ghettoperson wrote:
His introduction for Tom Hanks and Tim Allen had me lolling hard.
"What can I say about our next two presenters? The first is an actor, producer, writer and director whose movies have grossed over $3.5bn at the box office. He's won two Academy Awards and three Golden Globes for his powerful and varied performances starring in such films as Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, Castaway, Apollo 13 and Saving Private Ryan. The other is Tim Allen."

'I was going to come out dressed as Adolf Hitler,' he told talk show host Conan O'Brien, showing him that he would throw in a 'sieg heil' salute, too.
'I was going to get to the podium, let it die down - then go, 'Too much?' 'Then I wanted to look in the crowd and go, 'It's the wrong crowd, just the wrong crowd'.
'And then I was going to say, 'That's the last time I borrow a suit from Mel Gibson'.
