Sincerely, though ... I'm sure plenty of people have suggested this already, but I haven't seen it here or elsewhere ... wouldn't Keanu be perfect? Cross generational appeal, famously uncontroversial, wholesome champion of the importance of movies, consistently hilarious in interviews and press appearances. Feels like he checks all the boxes!

He’d definitely be great but would he want the gig? One of the biggest hurdles seems to be that it’s not the most desirable job for a lot of folks.

I like the Only Murders in the Building trio idea.

Anthony Hopkins. Hugh Jackman. Lady Gaga. I actually really like this idea. I’ve never seen Sir Anthony Hopkins host anything, but I think he would at least be competent which would be better than a lot of these award show hosts. Of course Hugh would be good, and I think Gaga would be good because she can sing and dance and people would turn in just to see if she’d be meat wearing Gaga or be in serious actress mode the whole time. Either way it’d get social engagement.

was there ever a time when Oscar ceremonies weren't shitty? I thought Steve Martin had some great ceremonies. I used to like Billy Crystal’s hosting when I was younger, but when he came back after being gone I felt like the magic was gone. Whoopi also had a few good ceremonies. I also thought Hugh Jackman, Jimmy Kimmel, and Seth MacFarlane started out well, but unfortunately it seems like given how long the ceremony is and with producers or the hosts wanting to add unnecessary things towards the middle and end even when they’re already running late, made their ceremonies not as good as they could have been.

Steve Martin is "Father of the Bride" so that would also work lol. That would actually be quite a trio.

Well that’s disappointing. Think Schumer could be alright, can’t stand Sykes, and while I do like Hall she seems like an odd choice for host.

Steve and Martin > Tom and Zendaya seriously. I’m sick of “Tomdaya”. I have their names muted on Twitter because their fans, especially Zendaya’s rabid fans, are insufferable

I really hope Amy Schumer lessens on that penis, vagina jokes this time. But I really wanted 'Tomdaya' 😋

"Amy Schumer, Regina Hall & Wanda Sykes"
Must have missed out on the just slightly more relevant Carrot Top & Dave Coulier

According to Kyle Buchanan of New York Times, they tried to get Steve Martin, Martin Short & Selena Gomez trio but didn't happen due to scheduling conflicts.

I get theyre on a show together, but she’s so boring I kinda agree. Short and Martin would be great together. Gomez doesn't have a comic timing or energy to catch up with them. That said, probably she'd be a more "relevant" name to attract audiences than these three hosts they picked.

Possible jokes the trio will make:
- Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall banter about and poke fun at white people and Amy Schumer retorts with “Haha yeah we suck. White people amirite” - Some comment about how the Oscars just had to throw in a white person as part of the trio because of a diversity quota. Or need to have a white person to comfort other white people - Some misogynistic joke about white women specifically but it’s fine because misogyny is acceptable if it’s about white women. In fact, it’s feminist
🙄
Sorry but I’m bracing myself because as a person of color, I’m sick of these overdone unoriginal jokes
