Academy Opening

I didn't watch the Academy Awards this year, but I did stumble across the video of the opening. The Oscars was hosted this year by Jon Stewart of The Daily Show fame. He's a very funny man who is critical of both sides of the political aisle.

The opening was very funny this year, playing up the Brokeback Mountain punchlines and the political nature of the nominated films. And Stewart's rant on Hollywood, calling it, among other things, an "atheistic pleasuredome" is hilarious. The opening is PG, but worth a look if you dare.
