HuskyCaucasian Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Feb 25, 2013 -> 03:01 PM) Overall, the show was boring, and some of the presenters' banter was forced and not very funny. the presenters are what drag most of the show down. I was so looking forward to The Avengers. Not only were they not in costume, the whole dialogue was forced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockRaines Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 25, 2013 -> 02:31 PM) Agreed, but that's not saying much. Too much singing, the audio was terrible, the ensemble presenter idea was terrible, and the whole show had a feeling of high school variety show quality. But really, people say this every year and it's NEVER been good. Once every 20 years you'll have a great/memorable Oscars, but there's so much f'n marketing behind the nominations/awards there's no legit surprises anymore. That's what made it great back in the day. McFarlane was what he predicted - mediocre. A couple of good bits (Flight reenacted with sock puppets, the Boob song, the Mel Gibson "what, you're on his side?" joke) but otherwise pretty meh. I guess as a host having some good bits but otherwise being forgettable is a good thing. So maybe a little better than mediocre. What makes an award show "good?" Its an awards show, with mostly awards that we dont understand. Its always going to be boring. At least this year there wasnt a run away winner that everyone predicted. Outside of that at least Seth was funny and some of the actresses looked hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're talking about 3-4 hours of people taking themselves way too seriously (which is why Gervais was so amazing, he was making fun of the people in the room for that very reason).

I played Chris Rock's Oscar Monologue on my TV while she sang last night. That is how I feel as well. She said in an interview a couple of years ago that she doesn't want to be a celebrity. Than stop showing up to sing at awards shows and doing 20/20 interviews. Actually, stop being a singer and get another job than. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
