The best opening roast at the Academy Awards that I’ve seen in years… kudos to entertainment veterans Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin, who really clicked in their duo snarky comedy shtick while opening the Oscar ceremony last night. Hilarious stuff.

Lampooning, teasing, and roasting the evening’s Oscar award nominees, such as Sandra Bullock (who won the Best Actress Oscar), Meryl Streep (who didn’t win), and battling directors/former spouses James Cameron and Kathryn Bigelow (Bigelow ultimately beat out ex-hubby Cameron’s Avatar by wining both the Best Director and Best Picture Oscars for the low-budget The Hurt Locker) was much funnier than I remember the opening being in previous years — at least, IMHO.
