This ceremony was amazing... Steve and Alec were phenomenal and they really showed that it doesn't just take a lot of money to make things great, it takes a lot of great people.
+Richie A I don't think many people got the joke. The woman behind Gabby (her mother?) obviously loved it. I think THE JERK is popular in the black community. My brother used to have some black naval buddies, and they loved it. That's how I first watched it. It was their recommendation when we sat down to watch a movie.
Steve - Do you think when you and he make love you can think of me? Bernadette - How about you and he make love and think of me? Steve - Well I'm just happy to be included.
I enjoy them, but I also enjoyed David Letterman the year he hosted. Most people did not like it, (or was it just Oprah?), but I enjoyed Letterman's entire monologue.
Prasanna J So right Prasanna - i caught him in the audience and thought - how the hell could you 'off' yourself in the midst of all this warmth and glamour?! Great hosts though-wish they'd do another.
I love how George Clooney is playing along with the guys with his straight face, so funny! Effron and Lautner were terrified of what was coming there way lol
I didn't get the 6:50 "And [James Cameron] reciprocated by sending [ex-wife Kathryn Bigelow] a Toyota" gag. So I did some Googling - at the time of the Oscars, Toyota was recalling some of their models. So for anyone else who didn't get it, now you know.
Ty, but you ruined it to me. It was my favourite part and I thought it was something like - reminding her who she was for him, just a younger ass gold digger. PS: I didn't wanted to offend anyone, neither calling women like that. It was just good shock-laughs joke for me.
tina dris in the film, Waltz's character searches for jews and hunts them, really... Martin's "Well, Christoph" with the hand gesture pointing at everybody means that hollywood has a lot of jews...
AHAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAAAAAAAAAAH! AHAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAAAAAAAAAAH! AHAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAAAAAAAAAAH! 😂🤣😂😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂😂 She was born to play a witch... 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
I don't like Clooney, but i must admit that he's playing with them 'cause it's reference to the movie he's starring "The Men Who Stare at Goats" in 2009.
This one is the ALLTIME BEST!! Its funny, hillariouse and original, they tease almost everyone without hurting their feelings that's an ART it deserves an OSCAR!!
the Jew jokes though had them already permanently out of the hosting before even this show finishes.. Everybody knows that Hollywood is a Jew turf and you don't fuck with them, in their home ground...
animaonathens Maybe the people who took away all of the different ways that Jews used to make a living are now eating crow. Well, but they can only attack the Jews, yet again and again and again.
brendan woods Seriously!!! I agree 100%. This is how the Oscars should be. An actual show that entertains you. Not sure what happened these past 5 years. Now it's just a stage where people get awards for 2 long hours.
Jeff Bridges is so damn cool! One of my favourite actors, for sure. I know a lot of people who think he's underrated, but not every actor has four Oscar nominations and one Oscar win under his belt :-)
How does Meryl Streep stay so gorgeous and glowing?She's been at the Oscars probably more than anyone in that room and she always manages to look so beautiful and fresh.Amazing woman.
I'm 43 and I loooove Robert Duvall! He's a class act..a regular guy you could sit down at any local coffee shop or pub and have a real conversation with-- not like some other actors who only want to promote themselves..Duvall strikes me as a real peaceful, humble guy who values family and quiet moments.
+Conor Mc You can add him to the list of Australians we aren't proud of having represent us in the film industry next to Russell Crowe and Mel Gibson. I think Hugh Jackman will be our ambassador for the next sixty years, I hope.
"If you would like the transcript of the tonight-show, then you should really think about getting a life." This is really hilarious and ironic, 'cause I was really thinking about doing the transcript right before he said that, haha!!
This. Is. Comedy. Gold. I've seen this clip so many times - it still makes me laugh. I especially love the laugh at the very end, "Who else is nominated for best actor. -- Well there's...." and then that soft chuckle from a camera man or something. Steve Martin had to have been the one to write this.
“Ladies & gentlemen, I’m pleased to introduce; actor, writer, musician, Grammy & Emmy winner, Mr Steve Martin… And this is Alec Baldwin.” "Meryl Streep holds the record for most nominations… or as I'd like to think of it, most losses" “She sent him a beautiful gift basket with a timer… And he reciprocated by sending her a Toyota” “Christoph Waltz played a Nazi obsessed with finding Jews. Well, Christoph… the motherlode!” “Take a good look at us guys, this is you in 5 years” =D
In every oscar opening monologue there's a joke about Meryl Streep's million nomination
+nicshe malik Lol I was thinking the exact same thing xDD
+nicshe malik I like to think of it, most losses xDDD
+nicshe malik I swear, every time award season rolls around everyone in Hollywood thinks the same thing: Is Meryl Streep going to be nominated again?
She wasn't this year. But she deserves every nomination she ever got.
nicshe malik even if it means stealing Amy Adams nomination
"In Inglorious Basterds, Christoph Waltz played a nazi obsessed with finding jews. Well Christoph..."
Cut to Ethan Coen
LOL
they looked nervous after he told the joke. lol
@@zackzallie8735 They couldn't try to hide in the basement , that's why.
💀😂
I love him. He is a fantastic actor
@@christicrenshaw2772 do you know who is the boy sitting next Coen is?
Seven years later and I keep coming back to this every now and then. They KILLED it. :D
Enjoy the mocking of GOD in the beginning of this show?
There is so much clapping, but not really funny
They ain't nothing compared to Ricky Gervais.
really? worst opening ever... and I love both guys
Same here.
But no singing and do dancing 😢until 2013 where openings got bigger 🎶
"And then no matter what, they nominate Meryl Streep" -- It's funny, BECAUSE IT'S TRUE.
Ricky Gervais 😂
Jeff Bridges is a frickin' legend. I love everything about him.
The Dude?
@@annaheart7731 yes
@Goddard Bolt and also Obadiah Stane/Iron Monger.
me too
his smile. the man just radiates cool and charisma and likeability. that dude is just impossible not to like
Clooney should have gotten an Oscar just for that facial expression at the end.
Yeah George Clooney didn't look very happy hahaha
It was a joke
Yeah! What was going on with that face?
Was he really annoyed or just acting?
George Clooney is really modest.
This ceremony was amazing... Steve and Alec were phenomenal and they really showed that it doesn't just take a lot of money to make things great, it takes a lot of great people.
Alec Baldwin is a great person? This did not age well
Anything with Steve Martin in it will be great!
Those so-called great people cost lots of money
@@casanova11ize As long as it's not government funded... but yes, they do cost tons of money.
I love the "damn Hellen Mirren" joke
“There’s that damn Hellen Miren”. Lmao so simple yet still so funny even today! 😂😭🤦♂️
😂😂😂
Love Meryl Streep's reaction when they entered the stage
Meryl Streep is wooden bitch!
Yh... After their history with each other in it's Complicated 😂❤❤ 1:45
The jokes weren't terribly funny, but the delivery of them was hilarious!
Yes they were funny
Exactly !
I couldn;t stop laughing!!
See that's dameeee! Oh sorry!
The jews one was hilarious
"Well Christoph...!" *opens his arm to the crowd*
I had to pause, that's hilarious!
Jeff Bridges looks like a king in that shot of him!
He's GORGEOUS!!!! ❤️❤️❤️😘😍
He always looks effortlessly cool.
jeff Bridges is the King of cool:)
He is the king Luke..................... he is
Hollywood royalty!
It's not a monologue, it's a DIALOGUE.
Gabriel Coronado ok ur fat
Technically, it's a dualague.
Black Knight goddamnannanamam
and i need to drop a log
no, it’s a di-monologue
Zach and Taylor looked like they were waiting to be insulted XD
Yeah, and they were the only ones who weren't!
But they were: the joke was basically that they are hot now but they'll get old fast.
it's been five years and they are still hot so...
they were...
@@madelinerossell5859 the joke is not about their bodies. its about their fame dissipating. 5 years is quite fast. and i think pretty accurate.
That Damn Helen Mirren
tellsitasitis
that DAAAAAAYUM Helen Mirren
That Dame Helen Mirren
is so hot. I’m not creepy
Can someone pls explain me the joke? I didn’t catch it
It's true, Steve Martin's first movie was as a poor black child in 'The Jerk', one of my favourite movies of all time.
+Richie A I don't think many people got the joke. The woman behind Gabby (her mother?) obviously loved it. I think THE JERK is popular in the black community. My brother used to have some black naval buddies, and they loved it. That's how I first watched it. It was their recommendation when we sat down to watch a movie.
+Richie A
Such a great film.
Steve - Do you think when you and he make love you can think of me? Bernadette - How about you and he make love and think of me? Steve - Well I'm just happy to be included.
nnn
Especially all of the black people.
Just watched Steve Martin’s 2020 monologue and damn does this guy not age??
He has looked the same since the 70's on SNL. Love the guy, he's a legend.
These guys should co-host again!
Or better yet they should actually host together!
+D0nutLord nigga thats what co host means
I enjoy them, but I also enjoyed David Letterman the year he hosted. Most people did not like it, (or was it just Oprah?), but I enjoyed Letterman's entire monologue.
+stefanie bender der is noch quicklebendig.
+stefanie bender Wie gesagt der lebt noch. Verwechselst du Steve Martin vllt. mit jemand anderem? Mit Leslie Nielsen (die nackte Kanone) zum Beispiel?
The Christoph Waltz joke was the best in my opinion :'D
Thomas agreed
Yesssss....lmaooooo
if everyone gets what it means
Specially the camera guy cutting to Cohen 😂😂 it just gets better
I didn't get it
RIP the wonderful Christopher Plummer
Didn't he play Captain in Sound of Music????
4:43 there you see Robin Williams, think he would have been a wonderful host. RIP
aww...he looks so innocent there, not to suggest he was never innocent, he just looks it there. so sad
He actually co-hosted it in 1986 with Alan Alda and Jane Fonda but he definitely would have done it better solo
Prasanna J So right Prasanna - i caught him in the audience and thought -
how the hell could you 'off' yourself in the midst of all this warmth and glamour?! Great hosts though-wish they'd do another.
Robin was actually asked many times by the academy to host solo but always refused.
He said ones: giving me the hosting of Oscars is like giving Michael Jackson keys to Disneyland...
I love how George Clooney is playing along with the guys with his straight face, so funny!
Effron and Lautner were terrified of what was coming there way lol
Yeah, especially Effron🤣🤣
4:42 Seeing Robin Williams gave me chills. We miss him so much.
I didn't get the 6:50 "And [James Cameron] reciprocated by sending [ex-wife Kathryn Bigelow] a Toyota" gag. So I did some Googling - at the time of the Oscars, Toyota was recalling some of their models.
So for anyone else who didn't get it, now you know.

PS: I didn't wanted to offend anyone, neither calling women like that. It was just good shock-laughs joke for me.
I thought it might have been a joke about her being tall
winstonsmith116 plz dont breed
I think the Toyota joke was about the Hurt Locker movie, where they hide explosives in cars.
Clooney must have invested in Toyota.
"And this is Alec Baldwin" lol
He created his entire comic persona around being a pompous self centered jerk. He can be very funny that way.
With 'Christoph Waltz joke' these are the best.
"Well, Christoph…" OH MY GOD
Yeah, I think that was my favorite joke - and I loved Christoph's reaction to it!
tina dris in the film, Waltz's character searches for jews and hunts them, really... Martin's "Well, Christoph" with the hand gesture pointing at everybody means that hollywood has a lot of jews...
I love him... and I love also Jeff Bridges 😍
And camera straight into Ethan Coen. LMAO.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😁😂😂😁😁😁😁
Never got tired watching this . Steve Martin blew my mind . It’s not an easy job to become the Oscar’s host . Not easy
Best of Oscar opening monologue ever! Alec and Steve are REALLY AWESOME!! I am so glad Alec Baldwin`s got his life and career back.
2024, that didnt age well.
These guys are so funny! Steve Martin is my all-time favorite Oscar hosts. But these two together are so great!
When it's end everybody say...
more!)
Two true Master of Ceremony,
Funny. Spirits are no joke
@@jazlynn011 AIec ain't afraid of death
I love how you can hear Meryl's laugh at every joke 😅❤
AHAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAAAAAAAAAAH!
AHAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAAAAAAAAAAH!
AHAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAH!HAAAAAAAAAAH!
😂🤣😂😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂😂
She was born to play a witch... 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Yeah I noticed that 😂😍
I don't like Clooney, but i must admit that he's playing with them 'cause it's reference to the movie he's starring "The Men Who Stare at Goats" in 2009.
Jn , m
Clooney is an a$$
Wow you guys are fun....
You're sure about that? Because he looked like he's got a personal beef with Steve and Alec
Hate clooney.
Jeff Bridges looks so good with his beard
This one is the ALLTIME BEST!! Its funny, hillariouse and original, they tease almost everyone without hurting their feelings that's an ART it deserves an OSCAR!!
Because this is when they weren't allowed to even begin to hurt feelings... This was the beginning of the end of free speech...
The best of all time... both were on the top of their game. Timing and reactions absolute perfect.
Please bring these guys back, this was the funniest Oscar show I've ever seen!
ళొPrincess Taydra Martinళొ Homophobic? Neil is awesome
the Jew jokes though had them already permanently out of the hosting before even this show finishes.. Everybody knows that Hollywood is a Jew turf and you don't fuck with them, in their home ground...
animaonathens Maybe the people who took away all of the different ways that Jews used to make a living are now eating crow. Well, but they can only attack the Jews, yet again and again and again.
***** Your jealousy is not attractive. Poor thing. No talent who needs to attack someone with talent galore!
Slimeflower Yeah I made a pretty tasteless comment. Two years later and I wanna kick myself for saying something so hateful 😭
These 2 guys are, by FAR, the best host(s) the Oscars have ever had!
The moment Baldwin gazes at Clooney xD
Epic xDDD
yes what is the context to that??
at that time Clooney dated Baldwin's daughter and they had a horrible breakup
A Ru In 2010 Ireland Baldwin was 14.
yea I'm wondering the same thing?
Okay, I figured there was some serious tension. But are you telling me George Clooney dated his 14 yr old daughter? Surely not?
Both (Steve and Alec) are great as comedians and performers
These 2, were masterful together, their comedic timing was flawless.
I love this opening! Steve martin is a genius! His op in 2003 is the best
So funny. Compare this to the 2015 hosting! Bring this duo back!
brendan woods Seriously!!! I agree 100%. This is how the Oscars should be. An actual show that entertains you. Not sure what happened these past 5 years. Now it's just a stage where people get awards for 2 long hours.
Mark M. The Oscars is like Billy Crystal, not funny, not fun.
+brendan woods they were really funny, but there's something about the delivery that I found very odd, especially with Baldwin.
+brendan woods thats what happens when gays take over
+brendan woods
its political i think. the hosters of the last 2 acad. awards were gays: ellen and neil patrick.
Can we please get Martin Short and Steve Martin to be hosts soon? Alec did a wonderful job too that year.
Yes, Alec was lovely, and yes it would be soooooo awesome for Steve Martin and Martin Short to host together.
I've watched this many times over, the jokes never get old.. Steve and Martin? U got my vote..
Omg, that sounds sooo great
STEVE MARTIN is always with class !!
Jeff Bridges is so damn cool! One of my favourite actors, for sure. I know a lot of people who think he's underrated, but not every actor has four Oscar nominations and one Oscar win under his belt :-)
“I was thinking today Chris, that we have both hosted the Oscars before, and this is such an incredible demotion.” Steve Martin 2020
Oh look, theres that damn Helen Mirren
XD
How does Meryl Streep stay so gorgeous and glowing?She's been at the Oscars probably more than anyone in that room and she always manages to look so beautiful and fresh.Amazing woman.
One of my Favorite Opening Monologues of the Oscars
all I could hear was Meryl's laughter!! LOL love her
One of the best opening scences ever (thanks to NPH and the beautiful dancers)! Love the stage design!
They were both great, not just that they had great jokes they also presented it well. Amazing!
0:54 is Meryl Streep's laugh and so it is all along the speech ;) !
So nice to see Robin Williams in the crowd between 4:30 and 4:46
I see this segment religiously every once in a while. Please bring them back someday, Oscar!
Brilliant. Watched this so many times. I love Meryl Streep and Sandra Bullock
Lol. The look on George Clooney's face. Priceless.
Glimpse of Robin Williams during all the precious jokes 🥺🥺💙💙🙏
What a great proformance of Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin :)
Meryl Streep is the greatest actress of all time hands down no argument
You're wrong....
Hamilton with Pence
No one will argue that and i spoke too soon lol. But no one in their right mind will argue that.
Katharine Hepburn won 4 Oscars for acting - more than Meryl.
high five
One of the best oscar opening monolog ever!
Never had so many laughs watching the Oscars, great hosts!
4:45 Robert Duvall ..No one really remembers these kings anymore its a shame.
I'm 43 and I loooove Robert Duvall! He's a class act..a regular guy you could sit down at any local coffee shop or pub and have a real conversation with-- not like some other actors who only want to promote themselves..Duvall strikes me as a real peaceful, humble guy who values family and quiet moments.
Yeah, except he's nominated this year.
Paul Jesus : About time! I just love his acting.
Wow, great catch
Yep him , Gene Hackman , Nicolson I miss that era
Definitely two of the best Oscar hosts ever!
Cant believe its been 4 years now since 2010. Bring these 2 back as a host :)
I love when they say, who's next?! Haha its like there ready to throw more shit at peoples
I love Alec Baldwin and always will for the rest of my life!
Me too💕
@@abrilgarcia14 did he sexually assault you too?
4:35 RIP † Robin Williams :(
2nd seat behind Jeff Bridges
Sam Worthington wasn't too impressed with their Avatar jokes..
+Conor Mc i totally noticed that...plus i agree...
+Conor Mc nah, he was just thinking "They keep talking about Avatar but why won't they mention me!??"
+Conor Mc You can add him to the list of Australians we aren't proud of having represent us in the film industry next to Russell Crowe and Mel Gibson. I think Hugh Jackman will be our ambassador for the next sixty years, I hope.
Absolutely love Hugh
Conor Mc
How could anybody not? We couldn't ask for a better rep for Oz.
This is the BEST Oscar's opening. Period 👍👍👍
How the hell did Taylor Lautner get invited to the Oscars?!?!
He was presenting
Friends of friends ofcourse
get this ... their there for a horror tribute
I thought his rich parents bought him fame. Heard that somewhere, anyways.
probably just for that joke on 9:00
I think Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin were the funniest and entertaining hosts!!!!!
camera guy: *cuts away to George Clooney*
Alec: "Oh look, there's George Clooney!"
George Clooney: *closes eyes and looks downwards* "Please no..."
Steve is great! He is my favorite. I think he should get more rewarded...
Till this day...the Best Monologue ever
Both legends in making people laugh
One more time they should come together
One more time
I remember watching this back then. That Damn Helen Mirren line had me in stitches! xDDDDD;
That whole thing with George Clooney! F***ing genius XD
I didn't get the reference.
i love how meryl streep is like 'yes god send me a sign' lmfao
Best opening monologue EVER... Why don't they keep doing this??!
"If you would like the transcript of the tonight-show, then you should really think about getting a life."
This is really hilarious and ironic, 'cause I was really thinking about doing the transcript right before he said that, haha!!
After ten years this is my favorite monologue. 2nd would be Hugh Jackman’s musical monologue
Why the heck am I watching this in 2020? Damn, you, TH-cam algorithms! I mean, Dame you!
by far the funniest opening monologue of any oscar
Hilarious... But not a monologue because is two people... Just an opening
Desirée, it's a dialogue.
Ellen had the best monologue pls
What was this reference to some CAA by Alec? At cc. 4:20
1:01 Alec's "you son-of-a-bitch" look is great.
One of the best Oscar opening monolog(dialog). :) Top 3.
I thought they were the best and funniest hosts I have ever seen. Not sure why they never hosted again.
jarac1357 yeah why?
:/ And why Ricky Gervais and Jim Carrey never host Oscars?
Can't think of a better Oscar hosts than this pairing, absolute gold!!!
"Well Christoph?" - best line!
"There's that dam Helen Mirren.... That's Dame Helen Mirren."
The best oscars opening ever!!!! Do that again please!!
This. Is. Comedy. Gold. I've seen this clip so many times - it still makes me laugh. I especially love the laugh at the very end, "Who else is nominated for best actor. -- Well there's...." and then that soft chuckle from a camera man or something.
Steve Martin had to have been the one to write this.
Best monologue i've seen so far...they're both great.
my godddddd please bring these two back!!!
At 0:56 you can hear Meryl's laugh :)
i love this dialogue!
That jew joke was the best.
Says the muslim guy.

The round of applause for everyone they mentioned really put a dent in the flow.
Christoph Waltz and Woody Harrelson two of the most talented actors in Hollywood! I love them both like a lottttttt
“Ladies & gentlemen, I’m pleased to introduce; actor, writer, musician, Grammy & Emmy winner, Mr Steve Martin… And this is Alec Baldwin.”
"Meryl Streep holds the record for most nominations… or as I'd like to think of it, most losses"
“She sent him a beautiful gift basket with a timer… And he reciprocated by sending her a Toyota”
“Christoph Waltz played a Nazi obsessed with finding Jews. Well, Christoph… the motherlode!”
“Take a good look at us guys, this is you in 5 years”
=D
hands down one of the best opening monologue
