• Shira Levine caught up with last year's Oscar host Hugh Jackman Tuesday night and got his first response to this year's double act of Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin : "I had no idea they were. You are breaking the news to me. They are both fantastic. Steve actually gave me a lot of funny hints last year. I rang him and he was really helpful. He is really funny and he knows what he's doing. He's done this before. Alec Baldwin is also a true genius. I think the both of...

-Precious' director Lee Daniels: From -F' to -A' in one movie
The big-ticket reviews for Precious are beginning to come in. One unqualified rave comes from EW’s own Owen Gleiberman, who gives the drama a flat-out A grade . The best part about Owen’s gushing review? Just three years ago, he slapped Daniels’ first feature, Shadowboxer , with an F . If there were an Oscar for Most Improved Director, Daniels would be a lock. A nomination for plain old Best Director may just have to suffice. Previous Post Steve Martin & Alec Baldwin to host...

Baldwin Excited For The Oscars, Even If Everyone Else Isn't: PHOTO
The more we think about it, the more we really aren't on board with the whole Alec Baldwin & Steve Martin co-host deal for the Oscars. We were sort of hoping that at the last minute, they'll drop out and Neil Patrick Harris could take over. No such luck, as Alec is already aware that most people will consider his hosting gig as the "worst choice in the world", but he doesn't care. He is sticking it out. But while he won't be stepping aside, he also won't be giving into any of Steve's...

Baldwin and Martin: Team Terrific
Just imagining the pairing of Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin as co-hosts of the Oscars gave me the first laugh from a show that's still four months away! Though it's partially an act of product placement -- Martin and Baldwin co-star with Meryl Streep in the upcoming comedy 'It's Complicated' -- Oscar producers Bill Mechanic and Adam Shankman are guilty of nothing more (or less) than perfect casting. Hugh Jackman, last year's song-and-dance host, did the right thing in declining a sequel. He was...

This will be Martin's third time hosting the Oscars. He was last seen on the Kodak stage in 2003, which went on to become the lowest-rated Oscar telecast ever to that point (it was later "topped" by Jon Stewart in 2008).
