Him and Ratner were both horrible choices to begin with, luckily one has a big mouth and the other was stupid enough to bow out with him.

Eddie Murphy should have never been the host to begin with

Lol what? On topic: Eddie Murphy would have made some good jokes, but they probably wanted it to be really serious.

I want Letterman to be the host again. I found him to be entertaining. Apparently the people at the Oscars don't think he's classy enough.

Thats loyalty right there, good for him. People forget how awesome of a comedian Eddie Murphy was. I think the cause of that was most of his movies....

Does it really matter who hosts them? I guess for those that watch them it's big news.

Get CM Punk to do it. The funny thing is, when you think about it, he'd be an awesome host for anything.

I don't know why some people just don't seem to like Eddie Murphy. Maybe they never seen his stand ups or are only old enough to see the movies he's been in lately. If so then they don't know about Eddie Murphy..

I think it's the fact that the edgy, outrageous Eddie Murphy from the '80s has since been long gone. In his place is the "family friendly", fat suit wearing, seems-like-he's-in-it-for-the-paycheck Murphy.

It's pretty much the same reason why some people don't like Nicholas Cage.

I have only watched one Ocars cerimony in my whole life, and I did it because my girlfriend at the time absolutely loved it and was completely excited about it and I thought she would be happy if I made the effort of giving it a try. So... I have no idea if this is good or bad, all I know is I like Eddie Murphy.

Do you really believe that? I think every actor wants one.
