I like him.

Sixx 12-04-2018 09:53 PM

I don't watch the Oscars, though.

Lock Jaw 12-04-2018 10:58 PM

Podiums must now be built shorter

Bit with the Rock probably

ClockShot 12-05-2018 07:14 AM

I can't stand Kevin Hart.

Seanny One Ball 12-05-2018 03:36 PM

I like him, he's one of the guys who worked from the bottom up and it's nice to see him get his dues.

Ezra 12-06-2018 11:23 AM

I am sure he will do something to offend a large group of people for shock value. I am sure there will be a nice handful of racist jabs at white folk.

Hopefully he gets drunk at some point and drops a few f bombs.

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-06-2018 03:53 PM

The Rock wins all the Oscars if Kevin knows what's good for him. 0.o

Wow, so dumb.

slik 12-07-2018 01:08 AM

Watch The Oscars get Woody Allen or Casey Affleck to host now

Sixx 12-07-2018 01:11 AM

If everyone would quit because of stupid shit they said in the past, Oscars would have no host at all.

Destor 12-07-2018 01:13 AM

Theyre consuming themselves

slik 12-07-2018 01:27 AM

I don't think Kevin Hart is funny OR homophobic

slik 12-07-2018 01:28 AM

People have to chill on the outrage of things said in the past.
Everyone has said dumb things about something before.

Judge people by the actions of who they are today when it comes to that type of thing.

slik 12-07-2018 01:29 AM

That being said, any celebrity with a twitter who hasn't scrubbed their social media for things that will offend people in 2018 is pretty dumb.

XL 12-07-2018 05:28 AM

It was from a stand up routine, harder to scrub.

Nutshell.

I wonder when The Academy will retroactively rescind awards given to scumbags. Whenever it happens will be the beginning of the end.

Unless you're Eddie Murphy people don't forgive comical bigotry.

slik 12-07-2018 11:50 AM

It was a combo of standup/old tweets

That's different. No one watches cnn

The purity testing is unsustainable. Nobody on Earth can pass it without some double standard involved.

Might as well delete Oscars till the 70s.

Savio 12-08-2018 09:29 AM

Comedian should band together and just say no to hosting the Oscars. IMIO

"In My Irrelevant Opinion"?

"In My Idiotic Opinion"?

"In My Infertile Opinion"?

It's sustainable as long as it's the many against a single person.

Feels like you're right but then again I remember being a kid and hating when Barbie commercials would come on and thinking "Can't wait until they run out of ideas for this ish and Barbie will go away and I'll never have to see these commercials again."

Would love it if they had to resort to someone like Bill Nye or Wolf Blitzer.

Frank Drebin 12-08-2018 10:22 AM

First guess is they'll go for the safe choice and try to get Billy Crystal to do it for the millionth time. Depends on how much they want a minority to show how diverse Hollywood is. Carlos Mencia is waiting by his phone I'm sure.

Seanny One Ball 12-08-2018 10:56 AM

Lena Dunham to host Oscar Ceremony

Frank Drebin 12-08-2018 10:58 AM

That would be best case scenario.

Seanny One Ball 12-08-2018 11:01 AM

Dave Chappell should do it.

Nothing to lose.

Frank Drebin 12-08-2018 11:52 AM

No. You've already got me pumped for Lena Dunham.

Lock Jaw 12-08-2018 12:00 PM

They should get me, Lock Jaw, to host.

Sixx 12-08-2018 12:03 PM

You'd just make poop jokes all night.

Frank Drebin 12-08-2018 12:07 PM

Are poop jokes ever not funny?

Lock Jaw 12-08-2018 12:24 PM

Everybody poops. That's why poop jokes are so relatable.

Seanny One Ball 12-08-2018 02:50 PM

Poop jokes are all inclusive.

A poop joke is the only joke you're actually better off being the butt of.
