      Alec Baldwin is a prime example of what is wrong with the film industry. He is unfit to represent those who are decent human beings.

        Entertainment news doesn't interest me, nor do awards shows.

          I declared a personal boycott against the Academy earlier this year after they totally shafted The Wrestler on nominations and wins.

            It's the most boring show ever. All the hosts do it tell bad jokes and introduce other co-hosts to announce the winner.

                They're both brilliantly funny, but they both have huge egos. I hope they can play nice for the whole evening.

                  Martin was good by himself. Baldwin will be a really great accentuation of the hosting. Good call by the producers.

                        Alec, fine. Could work.

                        Martin? No. Funny in movies. At the Oscars? Stiff. Ugh.

                              I'm guessing that Steve and Alec will come up with some very funny bits. I can hardly wait!

                                    I watch every year. It's fun to see, for example, Brad and Anjolina think they're the King and Queen of the World.
