I thought that the team of Martin and Baldwin showed great promise. And I thought their actual lines were often pretty darn funny. But, I think their chemistry with one another was pretty sub-par. And it was fairly outrageous to run a montage of great comedy teams — Burns and Allen, Abbot and Costello, Lewis and Martin — as an intro.

Another small outrage: When one of the Red Carpet interviewers said that the kid from Twilight was the most famous werewolf in the history of cinema (or some such). I still don’t know that kid’s name, but he’s no Lon Chaney.

I loved it when his Up in the Air co-star dubbed George Clooney a “humanitarian of the first order.” Really, he’s got no room for improvement already?
