Neil Patrick Harris, the host for the 87th Oscars, left the audience with a little laugh but a lot more groans at the end of it.
While most people considered his hosting of this prestigious event to be below the usual standard, it will be wrong to not give him credit where it's due. He provided a brilliant intro to the event. Calling it fabulous would be a complete understatement. And that wasn't all. Let us take a look at the most memorable NPH moments from the Oscars 2015:The groan-worthy punsWhile introducing Reese Witherspoon he said"This next presenter is so lovely; you could eat her up with-her-spoon". Yes. That pun hurt.And while on the subject of the documentary on USA whistle-blower Edward Snowden, he said"The subject of 'CitizenFour', could not be here tonight for some treason."
A little bit of a racial slur. But it was probably meant to be sarcastic."Welcome to the 87th Oscars. Tonight we homour Hollywood's best and whitest... Sorry brightest"A weird joke on Oprah. "Everyone on this side of the theatre is the 7 other nominees and American Sniper is Oprah... Cause you are rich" Although, the joke probably would make sense if someone does decide to do the math.A small taunt thrown at John Travolta "Benedict Cumberbatch. It's not only the most awesome name in the show business; it is also the sound you get when you ask John Travolta to pronounce Ben Affleck."A few good laughs"Our next presenter is not only the star of the record breaker for biggest February premiere ever, 50 Shades of Grey; she's also the reason you had to explain to your grandmother what a spanking bench is." "Please welcome Ben Affleck, my co-star from last year's Gone Girl originally titled Bitch's Been Trippin yo"The most enthusiastic tribute to 'Birdman'The dude litearrly walked on the stage in his underwear!All in all, Neil Patrick Harris pretty much rocked the show.
