Chris Rock? -- nm - Roger More Feb 23, 09:14 4
- I don't really count him as an actor. -- nm - Loyola Feb 23, 09:16 3
  - I know what you mean - he was the first that came to mind is all. Goldberg and Crystal are both recent actors who've hosted as well -- nm - Roger More Feb 23, 09:19
  - Well, "serious", anyway. As a comedian, sure plenty of those host the Oscars -- nm - con_carne Feb 23, 09:17 1
    - Hey, what's LA like during the oscars? Do people watch it in bars? -- nm - Loyola Feb 23, 09:18
I would say the last was Jack Lemmon 24 years ago. -- (link) - Don Homer Feb 23, 09:13 2
- steve martin and robin williams hate you right now. ;-) - Beryllium Feb 23, 09:17
- Ooh, he would've been good. -- nm - Loyola Feb 23, 09:15
Does anyone remember if there was a nod to Wolverine in the preview clips at the end? -- nm - Beryllium Feb 23, 09:13 6
- There wasn't - IIRC it was all movies I hadn't seen any footage of before -- nm - Roger More Feb 23, 09:15 3
  - And it didn't really tell you anything about the movies. Except that Meryl will probably get another Oscar nom. -- nm - ty97 Feb 23, 09:16 2

      - I think she enjoys the Award shows (GG more than Oscar though, because she likes to get her drink on). - ty97 Feb 23, 09:18
- nope -- (link) - ty97 Feb 23, 09:15
- Those things were so painfully brief, I don't remember -- nm - con_carne Feb 23, 09:15
