Ellen DeGeneres to Suck at Hosting Oscars Again

Being a generally cool human being with a good sense of humor and enjoyable talk show was enough to entice the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences to gamble on Ellen DeGeneres to host a few years back. It was one of the worst hosting duties in recent memory.

So the Academy in their infinite wisdom is taking a second bite at that apple, announcing DeGeneres as the host for the 86th annual ceremony next year.

Hosting the Oscars is not a "Second Chance" kinda gig. You bring everything you have at that moment. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity after all, and God love her... she was awful (Remember the bit where she "directs" Steven Spielberg as to taking a picture?) But yeah Academy, that makes sense.
