And Gervais treated us to the best attempt at career suicide since "Uma...Oprah."
he did the same thing last year and they brought him right back.
:nerd: he was a little meaner this year, but still they know his humor, and if Hollywood can't take a joke, they shouldn't have him host. i wonder if they pulled the reins on him last night, because he disappeared for a long stretch during the show.

:goodposting: I thought the same thing. It seemed like as soon as the tenor of the room shifted against him, he got the hook. Then again, at a certain point in the broadcast every presenter seemed to have to rush their "speech" and jump straight to the nomination announcements, so maybe they were just pressed for time.
 
Jesus, just watched a "best of" from this year's award show and man, that was just fantastic.

Ricky Gervais & Louis CK, the best two out there, imo.

Producers Guild Awards Host Judd Apatow Rips Into Ricky Gervais

Apatow joins in the criticism of Gervais' controversial Golden Globes jokes.

Producers Guild Awards host Judd Apatow built his opening monologue around a profanity-laced attack on the way Ricky Gervais handled his Golden Globe Awards hosting chores a week earlier in the same room at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

“What did you think of Ricky Gervais?” he asked the black-tie industry crowd Saturday night. “I didn’t like him. I thought he was mean.”

Apatow, whose movies include The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Knocked Up, knocked Gervais for his controversial jokes.

“He had that joke about the guy on Lost,” said Apatow. “He said he ate everybody else. Let’s be honest -- Ricky Gervais just lost weight. Even now he’s four pounds away from not being allowed to do a joke like that. Did he lose weight just to make fat jokes? You think that’s how mean he is?"

Apatow had no problem with a Gervais joke about Charlie Sheen.

But Apatow added, “(Jay) Leno did it the week before."

“I think he’s an OK target," Apatow said of Sheen. "The people at CBS have said as long as he shows up on time, knows his lines, he can do whatever he wants.”

However, Apatow took exception to Gervais making a joke about The Tourist.

“(Gervais) says the characters were two-dimensional,” said Apatow. “Then he says he hasn’t seen The Tourist. So as a comedian, that’s not fair, is it? To make jokes about a movie you haven’t seen.

"I can’t do a joke about (Gervais’s movie) The Invention of Lying because I haven’t seen it. You haven’t seen it. None of us have seen it. So the joke would not work.”

Apatow also came to the defense of Cher, Hugh Hefner, Tim Allen, Tom Cruise and Robert Downey, Jr. - others who were Gervais targets.

"(Gervais) made a joke about Tim Allen who was standing next to Tom Hanks," said Apatow. "Who looks good standing next to Tom Hanks? We all look like a piece of #### standing next to Tom Hanks. Warren Buffet would look like a piece of #### next to Tom Hanks.

"Tim Allen did 200 episodes of Home Improvement. He was in three of the highest grossing movies of all time. And his latest just crossed the one billion mark. Whereas The Invention Of Lying made $18 million dollars worldwide...Leave Tim Allen alone.”

Apatow is above "fat" jokes? He comes off as a major tool in this interview. We know that Tim Allen has a a hugely successful career. Making him the butt of the joke is the joke.

How is this assbag Clooney getting a lifetime achievement award? What's he done....like 3-4 watchable movies?

Not sure what the lifetime award is all about but took a quick look at IMDB and the guy has made or been in a ton of really good movies.

4-5 good movies in there. Not one classic. You're missing Perfect Storm, his finest moment. Has Costner received this award?

Well you said 3-4 watchable movies initially.

Jodie Foster and Woody Allen were the last couple of folks to get it so Costner seems like he would be up for it.

no homo
but I think Clooney is Mr Hollywood right now and is a throwback to the Cary Grant era of Hollywood

O Brother certainly qualifies as a CLASSIC
