Before the84th Annual Academy Awardsbegan, Billy Crystal appeared to be previously bringing the particular comedy. Kind of. "Opening variety changed. War Horse smashed his / her leg, needed to place him down," this individual tweeted a pair several hours prior to the show.Hilarious.
Crystal, whom returned as web host in the Oscars to the ninth period since his / her earliest exhibit throughout 1990, supplanted Eddie Murphy while host after some Brett Ratner-related controversy later with 2011.
The Warhorse might not were available, butMorgan Freemanwas, as well as he opened your show along with many reverent phrases around the artwork of filmmaking. We had been and then cared for towards the cracking open movie montage.

He then inserted themself directly into "The Descendants," total which has a very sought-after smooch fromGeorge Clooneyand several Batman-related platitudes. In the particular writers' room,Jonah Hill(who shall heretoforth be called Oscar Nominee Jonah Hill) informed Crystal that will they just isn't going to possess more than enough jokes.
Luckily,Justin Bieberwas earned to help you using the 18-24 demographic. "So just how long does one wish me to sit down these for?" he or she wondered. Cue embarrassed pause. "Good luck, Bob!" this individual informed Crystal.
