Those actresses acting upset were taped and part of the joke.

Its being reported on reputable sites and Fox News that they were upset.

When Seth started talking about orgies I decided to send my kids to Catholic school to protect them.

I didn't realize it myself until I saw danny bernstein's tweet. That was the best public service he has performed since informing me that child rape is bad.

I can see a person watching the show or half watching it not knowing it was a bit, but to be a hollywood reporter and actually post an article saying the women were visibly upset, you need do you job a lot better.


I thought Seth was real good overall.

I went and found the article on Fox News. It looks like they edited it. :lol:

Quote:
While Jennifer Lawrence performed a mini fist-pump with pride when it was mentioned she had never gone t0pless, Charlize Theron angrily buried her head in her hand when her "Monster" nudity was chirped. (But if you look closely, Lawrenec wore a strapped gown in the crowd shot, while she was in a strapless dress the whole night. Meanwhile Theron was wearing black during the song, yet she donned a pure white dress on the red carpet and during her dance with Channing Tatum immediately after. Hmmm. We smell a pre-tape!)


They just figured out Lawrenec was in on the joke? MartyFeldman can't be happy with Fox getting duped.

Me too.

Reading all the reaction last night was priceless.

These are the same people who thought Johnny Depp was really upset with Ricky Gervais at the Golden Globes a couple years ago. :lol:

I was really confused when I saw this. That was the whole bit. Shatner was showing "what will happen in the future". Pretty dumb.

I got that the song was recorded...I thought that was obvious. But I thought the song itself was in poor taste. Nudity in films is often a necessary componant to telling a story in the manner it's meant to be told (though in some movies nudity may be a gratuitous element as well). To make a song about seeing an actresses boobs with lyrics that sound as if a kid from Jr. High school wrote it, makes the actresses named look bad. Like they were used in some manner, so we could get a look at their boobies. I was impressed with Seth's singing abilities. I wasn't aware that he could sing so well. But some of the humor and this song in particular left me feeling like the material was meant more for adolescents than adults.

It was fucking funny. Seth being Seth.
If you didn't realize it was all recorded, well then...there is still no hope for you.

Well, they are. There is a reason almost all female actors that people care about are attractive. Ugly women can be good actors too. For some reason, they barely exist.

The FIRST LINE in my post was that I got that it was recorded and thougt that was obvious. So how you go back to anything about it being recorded or not makes no sense.

As far as the humor goes....it may be Seth being Seth, but perhaps that was the problem. He is a guy who has produced shows aimed at an adolescent audience. Perhaps he wasn't a good choice for the Academy awards. That would be my opinion.

Why do you assume he was talking to you? The DB is for people who didnt get it. Not YOU.

His shows are for the 25-40 demographic

More often than not nudity in a film is not a necessary component to tell a story, but I'm sure that's what the director told the actresses.

Which is worse, that boobs song, or bragging about beating women in bowling?

He is also a classically trained pianist. Certainly Family Guy does appeal to a younger more raunchier demographic and I think they were looker for a younger audience. Of course there are still a lot of baby boomers around that don't care for the entertainment aimed at younger audiences.

Not everything is about you Steve, so...relax a little there champ. Whether or not you're a douchebag...I'll let someone else decide that point.

Seth McFarlane is the perfect person to host these types of shows since Billy Crystal.

And I would argue that the demographic stretches into the age of 60 as Terry Boers himself has said that he loves the movie Ted.

I didn't realize so many guys watched the Oscars. Sounds like we didn't miss much.

I only caught the Oscars after the conclusion of the Hawks game. I thought Seth and his writers were great, really great.

Doing a von Trapp bit with a Nazi, then bringing out Christopher Lee to present supporting actress, that was pretty cool.

He was there. Didn't you hear someone clogged the toilet there. Flooded the lobby. I'm sure it was SomeGuy.

From what they said on the radio today, the viewership was up 17% which is a huge bump. That being the case, I wouldn't doubt they feel very good about the choice they made to ask Seth to host. I realize the type of humor he uses in Ted and Family Guy is popular with a certain demographic and has a place in the entertainment world. But not at the Academy awards in my opinion. Just as there are golf courses where one might be allowed to play in a T-shirt and jean shorts, you are not going to get onto a nicer course or onto the course at the Country Club wearing such clothing. The Academy Awards features actresses wearing dresses that cost more than the rent/mortgage that the average fan of Family Guy pays. It's a formal event that should be treated with a degree of respect and decorum. Not a venue for telling off-color jokes and singing sophmoric songs about womens breasts. He was an inappropriate choice for host in my opinion. However, I do realize that my opinion may not be shared by the majority of people that tuned in, based upon the increased ratings. I hope they go back to Billy Crystal next year.
