It would have worked better if he'd been messing around with Colin Farrell.

Malala doesn’t deserve Cocaine Bear crawling on her.

On a side note: Jessica Chastain is the only person on the audience wearing a mask

I'm guessing that Gaga "wasn't going to perform" until the producers agreed to give her a lot of freedom to do the performance however she wanted.

And Gaga shows everyone what performance is.

Some lame moments (two dreadful songs; hated JLC’s speech) but so far I’m liking the show. It feels the most like an Oscars in a few years. It’s cohesive. There’s good lively energy. Jimmy Kimmel is generally doing a good job. Good set. But best is that it really does feel like it’s about the movies. That’s really all I ask for. The nominated films have been persona non grata the last few years. Not this year. Generally into it.

I don't even know what that was. It was almost like the audience was being punked.

This actually wasn't a bad show up to now. But that was some lead balloon.
