This outburst by the famously genial Smith was even more surreal, as he sat back in his seat and shouted obscenities at Rock, whose <em>G.I.

I look like the crazy father \u2026 but love will make you do crazy things.\u201d He also noted that fellow nominee Denzel Washington had counseled him during the break: \u201cAt your highest moment, be careful. That\u2019s when the devil comes for you.\u201d Official score: Devil 1, Oscar dignity 0.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat an evening,\u201d was the reaction from last year\u2019s Best Actor winner, Anthony Hopkins, who followed this spectacle to present the award for Best Actress: \u201cWill Smith said it all. What more can be said? Let\u2019s have peace and love and quiet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A bit late for that, even though the show did stage a moment of silence for war-torn Ukraine. And love was definitely in the air as <em>The Eyes of Tammy Faye <\/em>Best Actress winner Jessica Chastain used her time in the winner\u2019s circle to speak out on behalf of the LGBTQ community facing \u201cdiscriminatory and bigoted legislation.\u201d Inspired by what she called the late Tammy Faye Messner\u2019s \u201cradical acts of love\u201d and compassion, she beckoned to anyone listening, \u201cYou are unconditionally loved for the uniqueness that is you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What else did we learn on Oscar night 2022? That while zero hosts is too few, three is too many, even when used sparingly.<\/p>\n<p>After an awkward bit introducing Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes, and Regina Hall in tandem, they split up afterward with varying degrees of success. Schumer\u2019s solo set was the sharpest, delivering jabs with wry sarcasm that thankfully didn\u2019t prompt any violent attacks. Nicole Kidman (nominated for <em>Being the Ricardos<\/em>) seemed to especially enjoy the joke about how writer-director Aaron Sorkin (\u201ctruly a genius\u201d) somehow managed to make a movie about comedy legend Lucille Ball \u201cwithout even a moment that\u2019s funny. \u2026 It\u2019s like making a biopic about Michael Jordan and just showing the bus <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a>s between <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hall fared less well with shtick in which she played the horny single woman, bringing movie hunks on stage and promising to give them \u201cemergency\u201d Covid testing off-camera: \u201cI\u2019m gonna swab the back of your mouth with my tongue.\u201d Before exiting, she patted down presenters Josh Brolin and Jason Momoa. Not a laugh riot. Sykes wasted more time with a corny taped piece at the Academy\u2019s pricey new L.A. museum.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1038229\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1038229\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1038229\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/regina-hall-josh-brolin-jason-momoa-oscars.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/regina-hall-josh-brolin-jason-momoa-oscars.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/regina-hall-josh-brolin-jason-momoa-oscars-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/regina-hall-josh-brolin-jason-momoa-oscars-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/regina-hall-josh-brolin-jason-momoa-oscars-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/regina-hall-josh-brolin-jason-momoa-oscars-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/regina-hall-josh-brolin-jason-momoa-oscars-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1038229\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Neilson Barnard\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Later in the show, the hosts attempted to redeem themselves by returning in costume, with Schumer again scoring the biggest laughs as she was suspended in midair as Spider-Man, squirting Silly String into the theater. (Sykes was <em>King Richard <\/em>in tight shorts, and Hall channeled Chastain\u2019s Tammy Faye: \u201cI always wanted to play a crazy white lady.\u201d) Finally, some comedy, however fleeting and anticlimactic.<\/p>\n<p>Showmanship was more evident in most of the musical numbers showcasing the Best Song nominees, starting with Beyonc\u00e9 on a Compton tennis court, bedecked in tennis-ball yellow with a full chorus and orchestra as she delivered a Super Bowl-worthy performance of <em>King Richard<\/em>\u2019s \u201cBe Alive.\u201d Best Animated Film winner <em>Encanto<\/em> got two numbers: the nominated \u201cDos Oruguitas\u201d and a full production number of \u201cWe Don\u2019t Talk About Bruno\u201d that filled the Dolby Theatre with vibrant energy, making you wonder why that earworm phenom wasn\u2019t nominated. Billie Eilish and FINNEAS delivered a strong version of the title track of <em>No Time to Die<\/em>, the latest James Bond theme to win an Oscar.<\/p>\n<p>One musical sequence that backfired was a gospel accomp<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/anime-manga\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"6\" title=\"Anime || Manga\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">anime<\/a>nt to the In Memoriam segment, which focused too much on the chorus moving, dancing and swaying and not enough on Hollywood\u2019s dearly departed. (A better idea: Having celebrities including Tyler Perry, Bill Murray and Jamie Lee Curtis give brief personal testimonials to luminaries Sidney Poitier, Ivan Reitman and Betty White.)<\/p>\n<p>Even with the controversial attempt to streamline the show by handing out eight of the craft and short-subject awards before the broadcast and editing them into the proceedings, the Oscars still managed to drone on past the three-and-a-half-hour mark. There were few surprises among the winners, though history was made when <em>CODA<\/em>, from streamer Apple TV+, took the Best Picture prize.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1038230\" style=\"width: 2038px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1038230\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1038230\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/oscars-2022-coda-best-picture.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2028\" height=\"1375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/oscars-2022-coda-best-picture.jpg 2028w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/oscars-2022-coda-best-picture-426x289.jpg 426w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/oscars-2022-coda-best-picture-841x570.jpg 841w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/oscars-2022-coda-best-picture-768x521.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/oscars-2022-coda-best-picture-570x386.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2028px) 100vw, 2028px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1038230\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Myung Chun \/ Los Angeles Times<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>But in years to come, few will remember who won or lost at the 2022 Oscars.
