Sunday's Oscars was bloated and sadly predictable. Who was the genius who thought, 'Hey, instead of having just one person present acting awards, let's have five people present them and have them all give flowery speeches?"

Just once I want the presenter for Best Picture to go "...and the winner is 'Juwanna Mann.'"

The always reliable Ben Stiller did provide a high point with his impersonation of Joaquin Phoenix. However, I think the expiration date on Phoenix jokes is rapidly approaching.

What did you think of the Oscars?
