I just want to add, I'm reading a lot of "mixed" reviews of Stewart's performance and some are calling his performance "dull" and "unfunny". I just want to say, they're full of shit. Stewart was funny. Not to the same extent as Billy Crystal, but better than Whoopi, Steven Martin, Chris Rock and (definately) Letterman. I reckon if he did it again, he'd rate alongside Billy Crystal, if not higher.
To give you an example, Maureen Ryan (Chicago Tribune) said that Stewart's joke about the Jewish trilogy gave Speilberg a "cringing look". However, Speilberg said after the show that Stewart "did a fantastic job" (CNN). In other words, Maureen Ryan is full of shit.
I reckon bring him back again.

A joke about a certain group told by a member of that certain group gave another member of said group a cringing look while still maintaining that it might have actually been funny? You don't say!

Aye. Ryan listed the situation as a negative alongside other "negatives" of the night and totally slammed most of Stewart's performance. But despite this, Speilberg said Stewart's performance was fantastic. I can only conclude Ryan is full of shit and forms stupid generalisations when interpreting facial expressions. "hey Speilberg has an odd look on his face so he must be upset about a jew telling jokes about the jewish. Things would be different if Billy Crystal was host, despite the fact he's also jewish." So fuck you, Ryan.
Maureen Ryan reads P-Boi, right? I hope my "fuck you" doesn't go unnoticed by her.
EDIT: Rewatched the clip. Ryan needs to learn the difference between facial expressions of "cringing" and "enjoying".

Oscar Night.
PSH wins for best actor - awesome. I've been a fan on his since I first saw him in 'Happiness' many years ago. Finally, the man gets some recognition for all the work he's put out - making him an Oscar-calibre actor. Fantastic. For all of us die-hard PSH fans - it was an awesome moment (now if only we could get Peter Stormare nominated).
As far as Stewart's job went last night - I think he did a great job. He made some pretty good jokes and, if anyone sucked, it was the crowd. For some reason, on Oscar night, everyone seems to take themselves just a little too seriously. I mean, guys, really, calm the fuck down - you play pretend for a living. Anyhow, all of lines were spot-on, but my favourite for the evening was: "For those of you keeping count at home, thats 'Oscars for Martin Scorcese: 0, Three Six Mafia: 1'..."
Oh, and as a final note. George Clooney is the fucking man. I love that guy. I dont care if he's a Hollywood favourite or not - that man is the epitome of cool. He exudes class and style and isnt a dick about it. Im glad that he won his award for Syriana - and his acceptance speech was one of the best of the night. Long Live Clooney.

The Giant Eagles are basically Deus Ex Machina whenever they appear. I mean, it's like:
THE HOBBIT
Bilbo: Holy shit we are trapped in this tree and there are goblins everywhere!
Dwarf #13 (Bombur): Holy shit!
Gandalf: (smiles cunningly/knowingly)
Giant Eagles: Hey guys what's going on! Thanks for pulling out an arrow or something out of our leader because we don't have thumbs!
THE HOBBIT (later)
Bard: We are losing against the goblins!
Thorin: We are losing against the goblins!
Wood Elf King: We are losing against the
Gandalf: (smiles knowingly)
Giant Eagles: SKREEEEE
Goblins: ARGH
THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING
Saruman: And now you are trapped on top of Orthanc!
Gandalf: Holy shit!
(Saruman leaves)
Gandalf: (smiles knowingly, talks to moth)
Giant Eagles: The moth told us everything! Luckily we did not have much going on so we can easily repay already repayed debts!
THE RETURN OF THE KING
Frodo: We are going to die!
Sam: We are going to die!
Aragorn: They are going to die!
Gandalf: (smiles knowingly)
Giant Eagles: Hey guys! Now that Sauron's AA batteries have been disabled we can come in and rescue you!

I suppose you're right, but the basis of Deus Ex Machina is that whatever is taking place is improbable. To me, there's nothing improbable about them being saved by giant eagles considering it's fucking Middle Earth. Either way, I suppose we can blame Tolkien.

I wasn't referring to the fact that they're saved by Giant Eagles. I was referring to the fact that Tolkein used them only for Deus Ex Machinas. It's like having a race of talking getaway cars.
Frodo: We are going to die!
Car: Quick, hop in!
Frodo: Thank you, Caralax of the Car men (San Diego Thomas Haden Church)!

That's hilarious. Fuck you, Tom Hanks. You're Tom Hanks. There is a national food chain based on a character you created, won one of your precious Oscars for, and are synonymous with, no matter how many Ladykillers or Terminals or whateverthefuck with your quasi-mullet you do. Get over yourself.
