I agree with what he is saying. I like it better with a host.

I dunno... I thought last year’s show worked out well without a host. I certainly wouldn’t want Billy Crystal back - his schtick had grown tiresome long before he stopped hosting.

The best modern Oscar host IMO was Steve Martin.

I really didn't like his "movie that directed itself" jokes. Kinda like taking a shot at at least one of the directing nominees imo.

Billy Crystal is the only celebrity that can handle the Oscars. He is the king.

Dave chaplelle should host

Wow, that is a great idea! I hope that happens.
