    I don’t think the Academy appreciated his kind of humor. He made a couple of jokes poking at Hollywood in general (I especially liked his "look at how filthy rich these people are whom movie pirates are stealing from" joke), but I could tell he wanted to say so much more. One shot after that joke showed a bunch of over-dressed typical Hollywoodies looking none-too-pleased with the host. He may have started poking at the Academy a little too early in the show.

    And did anybody else feel the heavy hand of "you evil evil DVD watchers, you need to go to the movies" like I did?

      Yeah, I caught that, and I wasn’t impressed by it – the gist of the President’s speech seemed to be "We want you to watch our work, but only in the real theaters". It was really out of place, considering the majority of the films up for awards are either being released on DVD in the next month or are already out.

        Like, for example, the Montage of Epic Movies, which pointed out that these movies can Only Be Appreciated On The Big Screen.

        Of course, none of the movies up for Best Picture really qualify as epics, do they?

          You mean the montage of epic movies that had The Day After Tomorrow in with Ben-Hur and The Ten Commandments? Sadly, I saw one of those three in the theatre, and it wasn’t either of the two that are actually considered epic and classic – but don’t worry Academy members! I’m going to wait to watch Ben-Hur in the theatre, as my enjoyment of The Ten Commandments was obviously marred by the small screen on which I viewed it.

          When is it being re-released, anyways?

        Y’know, I went and looked to make sure I was spelling his last name with the right form of "Stewart" but didn’t even think to pay attention to his first name. *doh!*

          I hate to tell you this, but when you typed his last name you spelled "Leibowitz" wrong.

            That used to be his last name, but when he got married both he and his wife had their names legally changed. His last name is "Stewart," and he no longer has a middle name.

              On the plus side, he got this sweet green ring and matching lantern…
