I enjoyed the one with Byonce, though I don't think she's got a voice that justifies all the popular singing moments she's been given in the last two months (pre-election, etc.) She was picked for star presence than for her voice, which was only adequate. And I wasn't wild about her costume. But the rest of the number I enjoyed quite a bit.
The opening number was funny. I didn't like the weird loetard dancers, and the song was too disparate, but the Nixon stuff was LOLtastic, and my whole family cracked up at Jackman's final line.
I was neither here nor there about the Best Song productions, but my dad commented that it was nice to seem something culturally different being performed, and I had to agree with that.
Dude, that part was genius. I was at an Oscar party and all the girls got all hushed when Jackman started to sing and one of them was like OMG I DIDN'T KNOW WOLVERINE COULD SING and then there was that line and everyone just cracked up.
Also, Beyonce needs to get off my Oscars. She sang everyone song a year ago and she's back AGAIN? :\
