Funny as hell. Didn't think I liked his comedy, but that was brilliant.

You realise that he was pulled off for over an hour and was awol from the hosting duties, while backstage he was told to "straighten up and fly right or else you're fired" , yeah?

no, and how is that relevant?  he had jokes that werent funny during it, they were obviously before this happened since they were the same style but just not funny at all.  i found this really funny but some of his stuff during it was baaaaaaaaaaaad

@ The Tourist comment... that movie was honestly one of the worst movies I've ever seen. So fucking predictable.

I do think he stepped out of line though, as funny as his comments were. You save those kind of jokes for shows like The Daily Show, Bill Maher, etc. Not a primetime awards show. Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin were fantastic in hosting the Oscars last year and while they certainly cracked some jokes, they didn't go nearly this far.

why? these people make millions of dollars even when their movies suck. They can't take a little roasting? They ought to grow some thicker skin. We make a bigger deal out of these awards than we do about the Nobel Prize awards

Agreed, he's a fucking comedian, there's no dire consequences to him making fun of people a bit. They're getting paid millions of dollars to act in these shitty movies, they can take a fucking joke.

It's not a roast if it's some placid bullshit. Gotta hit them where it hurts. The audience present may not have all appreciated it but like with Colbert at the White House dinner Gervais understands there's a much wider viewership....

His introduction for Tom Hanks and Tim Allen had me lolling hard.

"What can I say about our next two presenters? The first is an actor, producer, writer and director whose movies have grossed over $3.5bn at the box office. He's won two Academy Awards and three Golden Globes for his powerful and varied performances starring in such films as Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, Castaway, Apollo 13 and Saving Private Ryan. The other is Tim Allen."

My favorite part about that was when he looked on the other side of the card, just to double-check that there was nothing else written.

And I think it´s awesome he hooked up with Capri Anderson and hold her hostage naked while trashing the hotel, naked.

Pretty sure he made some pokes at them last time he hosted. Something about Mel Gibson .. er something.

On Conan he said he had planned to come out dressed as Hitler.. step up to the mic and say "Too Far?... I borrowed this from Mel Gibson's closet". Now that truly would have been funny.

edit: let me get it right

But when he told Golden Globes organisers his plan, he was immediately banned from doing it.

'I was going to come out dressed as Adolf Hitler,' he told talk show host Conan O'Brien, showing him that he would throw in a 'sieg heil' salute, too.

'I was going to get to the podium, let it die down - then go, 'Too much?' 'Then I wanted to look in the crowd and go, 'It's the wrong crowd, just the wrong crowd'.

'And then I was going to say, 'That's the last time I borrow a suit from Mel Gibson'.
