Oscar castrates himself

The Academy celebrates niceness, bleeps out "bitch" and pats itself on the back for good behavior. And what did they do to poor Jon Stewart?

    Did we watch the same show?

    I thought Jon was hilarious, and wouldn't be surprised if he is invited back to host again. But seriously, has Cintra ever seen an Oscar night she didn't loathe? As far back as I can remember she's said how this Oscars was the worst ever. Its becoming a tad predictiable so I'm wondering if next time around Salon might choose to bring on someone a little less inclined to hate the whole thing before it even begins? That way Cintra can go back to doing whatever it is she does when she's not talking about how unimportant/boring/self indulgent/etc. the Oscars are, and we can get a more balanced review of the evening.

    —John
