I was a little underwhelmed. I like Ellen DeGeneres fine. She's like a funny aunt. But she had a little trouble carrying the entire thing. Jon Stewart did a better job, and even he couldn't make it much of a show last time. But it was tolerable. Not painful or anything. I'd say it was closer to suckage than great, though.

But as long as Martin Scorsese got his Oscar, good won in the end, and that's what a good popcorn movie is all about.
