"I took a 9 year old kid to Gladiator and he cried through the entire film... now maybe it was because he didn't know who I was" Can you even get away with jokes like this anymore? Steve Martin can.
@@NorthLVLowRoller It's a kidnapping joke, not a pedo joke. You added the extra steps. And it was clear his Mel joke showed how out of touch he was - that was the point of the joke.
who else is on a Steve Martin binge? This man is just pure genuise and class on all his speech and acts. great definition of entertainer... no politcs no environment no personal agenda being pushed .. amazing
This was the old school Hollywood Oscar monologue, nothing over the top. No sexist, racist, religious sensitive jokes, it was just delightful, DELIGHTFUL. 💃⭐️
Yes. But that's kind of Steve's thing too. Even though he can be quite absurd his jokes are always kind of family friendly somehow. Even when they're not, they still are.
@@annakochkin7693 Billy Crystal was the host for most times between 1990-2005. So just saying that he could only host Oscars and get the company of women only when Billy Crystal not available, otherwise Crystal is chosen over him
"I realize, hosting the Oscar is like making love to a beautiful woman. It is something I only get to do when Billy Crystal is out of the town." 😂😂😂 what a legend
We don't know if he laughed at Steve's other jokes. Not like the camera was on him the whole time. We can say that it took three jokes related to Crowe that finally made him laugh.
“Please hold your applause until it’s for me.” “I love welcoming the young stars… cause it reminds me of my own death.” “Or making love, ‘are you Steve Martin?’ “ “But it seems like since you got caller ID, you’re never home.” "So I called my friend Giorgio Armani" "Oh, we have 5 hours!" “If Tom wins tonight, between Tom & myself, we will have 3 Best Actor awards!” "Hosting the Oscars... it's something I only get to do when Billy Crystal is out of town." One of the best Oscar openings ever =D
Hahahaha. I love Steve Martin, the joke where he's having dinner with "Tom, Mel, Julia, and Gwyneth" was absolutely hilarious, as was the one on Charlton Heston ("Don't talk to him, he thinks he was in gladiator"). Brilliant!
Haha, Steve Martin is great. His description of the dinner party with "Tom", "Mel", "Gwyneth", and "Julia" had me in stitches. Also loved the line about the trailer giving away too much of the movie and using Dude Where's My Car as an example.
I think this was the final curtain on cinema . Just looking at all the great stars in the audience , many who have passed away , wants me to cry on my own for a while , and hope for the future .
One of the best monologues OMG!!!!!! I Taped this on VHS cause I knew it would be years until I'd get a chance to see it again... I can throw the tape away now :D thanks
Great name drop on Paul Giamatti, he always struck me as the actor's actor as well. Sometimes performers like that aren't wildly famous but have a list of critical acclaim a mile long.
Steve Martin is so genuinely funny! I mean, I laugh non-stop every single time he's up there on stage... and I see audience laugh so hard too! There may have been better presenters but Steve Martin got to be the funniest to date!
Notice how they didn't really laugh the times he called out the true nature of the industry. He was telling the truth and that hits close to home. I thought this was hilarious.
This was a bad idea...I am coming down from a cold...and this had me laughing so hard I could not stop coughing and I had an asthma attack....Damn you Martin you!
Love this monologue, but I have to admit that the only reason I rewacth it almost every year is for the pleasure of seeing Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix looking like they're too cool for school. Makes me giggle every time.
I'm in a cycle of watching award show opening monologues
me too ^^
Same here. Just the oscars for me. Just the comedians I love. Jon Stewart, Chris Rock and now Steve Martin.
Me,too!!
help i cant stop
Matthew Lazo me too
"Please, hold your applause until it's for me."
That sounded like something he just ad-libbed right there.
Watch his Tom Hanks AFI award monologue
"I took a 9 year old kid to Gladiator and he cried through the entire film... now maybe it was because he didn't know who I was" Can you even get away with jokes like this anymore? Steve Martin can.
Best joke ever
thats classic oldschool filmstar joke , yes he can
Fred Kang he’s saying he kidnapped a kid and brought him to the movie
That's a Pedo joke dude, he also joked about not letting Mel Gibson's friend to his house that helps children? Wth?
@@NorthLVLowRoller It's a kidnapping joke, not a pedo joke. You added the extra steps. And it was clear his Mel joke showed how out of touch he was - that was the point of the joke.
I could just spend my entire day watching Steve Martin's speeches
+TVB Land what do you mean you "could"? haven't you? i know i have :)
haha indeed I have my friend :)
make it my entire life
TVB Land.....Dude, you really gotta get a life ?
I'm doing that right now lol
This was seriously my favorite Oscar monologue. Steve's deadpan is ideal.
Old school....the Best
You’re waiting for the next zinger he’s going to throw, but having too much fun to care.
Steve is so hilarious. His jokes are casual and yet hilarious, and he remain a calm face that makes them even funnier!
who else is on a Steve Martin binge? This man is just pure genuise and class on all his speech and acts. great definition of entertainer... no politcs no environment no personal agenda being pushed .. amazing
Me
this is one of the funniest of these monologues for sure
So true!
I didnt laugh once but I love Steve Martin so all is well
This was the old school Hollywood Oscar monologue, nothing over the top. No sexist, racist, religious sensitive jokes, it was just delightful, DELIGHTFUL. 💃⭐️
Yes. But that's kind of Steve's thing too. Even though he can be quite absurd his jokes are always kind of family friendly somehow. Even when they're not, they still are.
Are you watching the same Steve Martin I'm watching? All that stuff is part of his routines, though not necessarily all the time.
Delightfuuulllllllllllllll👍🏼
“... hosting the oscar is like making love to a beautiful woman, it's something I get to do when billy crystal was out of town.”
Best
Dwiki Halla Stolen from Swiss Toni
Brilliant double-burn.
Also from another Steve Martin's speech: "Hosting the Oscars is like making love to a beautiful woman... I guess."
What's the background story behind the joke?
@@annakochkin7693 Billy Crystal was the host for most times between 1990-2005. So just saying that he could only host Oscars and get the company of women only when Billy Crystal not available, otherwise Crystal is chosen over him
Steve Martin is such an underrated Oscars host but I really love his humor, one of the best.
If you can get Russell Crowe to smile at a joke, then you've won!
He was drunk.
Because it was the only joke that was worth laughing at.
He’d have to get it. 😉
He did that for a reason, Crowes affair with Quaids wife
I get the impression Crowe didn't laugh because he was never sure if he was the butt of the joke or not.
By FAR, the funniest oscar host ever
Well, have you seen Paul Hogan's......?
Forza Juve
"I realize, hosting the Oscar is like making love to a beautiful woman. It is something I only get to do when Billy Crystal is out of the town." 😂😂😂
what a legend
on another monologue, he said: hosting the oscar for the second time is like making love to a woman for the second time...I guess. lol
Please - hold your applause until it's for me. Hilarious!
This could be the best Oscar monologue ever
There goes Russel Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix, looking like the cool kids in school....both quite hot in this vid!!
and?
no thanks, i'm good
Okay you're right, just talk about it online sorry for crossing any boundaries
+KK Warslut wtf lol
Joaquin still looks hot tho
How does this have 450 dislikes? Steve Martin is the man!
what he said about afghanistan
Bl4ckBull3t1
also about gays
...and also about everything else.
The first joke
Cause people are oversensitive.
“I was thinking today Chris, that we have both hosted the Oscars before, and this is such an incredible demotion.” Steve Martin 2020
It took 3 jokes to make Russell Crowe laugh
Literally
We don't know if he laughed at Steve's other jokes. Not like the camera was on him the whole time. We can say that it took three jokes related to Crowe that finally made him laugh.
"Does Russell Crowe remember laughter?" -Robert Plant
+jimmy sonhil 8:11 joke was too good for Russell to hold it in...
Well may be😂
The Charlton Heston line was great.
Best Oscar opening ever!!!!
This guy is the greatest. his timing and delivery.....and he plays banjo to boot
he really should leave that telephone in his pants 😊
“Please hold your applause until it’s for me.”
“I love welcoming the young stars… cause it reminds me of my own death.”
“Or making love, ‘are you Steve Martin?’ “
“But it seems like since you got caller ID, you’re never home.”
"So I called my friend Giorgio Armani"
"Oh, we have 5 hours!"
“If Tom wins tonight, between Tom & myself, we will have 3 Best Actor awards!”
"Hosting the Oscars... it's something I only get to do when Billy Crystal is out of town."
One of the best Oscar openings ever =D
Ignatius AW I
We sleep with so many people.
Steve Martin was a very good host.
The National Treasure himself...
MR. STEVE MARTIN.
Effortless. 👏👏👏
Hahahaha. I love Steve Martin, the joke where he's having dinner with "Tom, Mel, Julia, and Gwyneth" was absolutely hilarious, as was the one on Charlton Heston ("Don't talk to him, he thinks he was in gladiator"). Brilliant!
That look Crowe gives is amazing.
"You just made the list, buddy."
HOLY COW BABY RUSSEL CROWE
Haha, Steve Martin is great. His description of the dinner party with "Tom", "Mel", "Gwyneth", and "Julia" had me in stitches. Also loved the line about the trailer giving away too much of the movie and using Dude Where's My Car as an example.
02:08 Winona Ryder...she´s just sooo gorgeous 😍💕💕
Im 14 an my friends cant believe he is my favourite
Tam Honks 😍
I was so disheartened to hear more applause for Tom Hanks than Charlton Heston. That man was and still is a legend of the screen.
Russel Crowe, best poker face ever
Another one of my favorite hosts! Loved: Billy Crystal, Steve Martin, Hugh Jackman and Ellen DeGeneres.
probably one of the better opening acts for the oscars, steve martin is amazing!
steve martin is awesome, some people just can't go to sleep without being haters
Happy 70th Birthday Steve
This is what the Oscars used to be. I don't think we will ever get the same experience again.
Very true...
lol I love how pissed russell crowe looks every time steve jokes about him.
Russel Crowe had epic hair back then.
I think this was the final curtain on cinema . Just looking at all the great stars in the audience , many who have passed away , wants me to cry on my own for a while , and hope for the future .
Awww Joaquin is so cute when he laughs :')
I'm blushing thanks to your comment 😊☺️🤗
Steve Martin is hilarious lol.
One of the most comic greats of our time!
I find him attractive, whatever age he may be.
That was such a good ceremony! One of my favorites!
Steve Martin I love you!
A GENIUS! A GENIUS! A GENIUS!
"So i called my friend Giorgio Armani" LOL
I´ve been looking for this for ages. Great great stuff from Steve Martin:-)
Steve Martin is a comedic genius. Look at his works...amazing.
Cant stop watching oscars......im hooked
One of the best monologues OMG!!!!!! I Taped this on VHS cause I knew it would be years until I'd get a chance to see it again... I can throw the tape away now :D thanks
Great name drop on Paul Giamatti, he always struck me as the actor's actor as well. Sometimes performers like that aren't wildly famous but have a list of critical acclaim a mile long.
Julia Roberts is such class. Beautiful smile :)
Well they do call her America's sweetheart for a reason. She's that damn beautiful.
She treats people like garbage. Takes more than looks to have class.
Steve Martin is so genuinely funny! I mean, I laugh non-stop every single time he's up there on stage... and I see audience laugh so hard too! There may have been better presenters but Steve Martin got to be the funniest to date!
So many of those jokes you can't make today. Thank God for 2001!
comedians are really geniuses
Notice how they didn't really laugh the times he called out the true nature of the industry. He was telling the truth and that hits close to home. I thought this was hilarious.
The line about Billy Crystal in the end stole the show for me! Steve Martin is always funny. Hope he presents yet another Oscar.
Thanks for the video! More monologue clips please :)
steve martin is the best. don't see enough of him anymore.
This is hilarious. Steve Martin deserves an oscar for best opening academy awards giveaway.
Why Can't there be Brilliance like this Today Potty humor has taken over "ugh"
16 years later and they still spoil the movies in trailers lol
Steve Martin is the best hosting these awards, funny, but serious at times
The 2 Steves who are best at keeping a straight face while cracking a joke ---- Steve Carell & Steve Martin
russels just biding his time... one day, steve, one fucking day....

STEVE NAILED IT!!!!!...GREATJOB
I hate the Oscars and I hate Hollywood, but I love Steve Martin.😜😎👍
The last times when Hollywood, movies, and award shows were fun and meaningful.
He is just brilliant!
love steve martin.
how does he stay so calm and eloquent ?
This was a bad idea...I am coming down from a cold...and this had me laughing so hard I could not stop coughing and I had an asthma attack....Damn you Martin you!
Winona Ryder everybody 🙌
Steve Martin actually did a good job on this!
SUPERB !! Didn't stop laughing the whole time...looking forward to this year ...xo
if people still laughing after the joke, then you're doing it right
I loved when Steve hosted. So funny!
He is simply brilliant!
The stage design is beautiful
“Ever since you got caller ID . . .”
Steve Martin > Billy Crystal
And Ellen Degnereas
+Groundhog Day 1993 is AWESOME! and jimmy kimmel
I didn't realize Steve Martin was this funny. Awesome
back then this speech had a completely different impact than today...such genius
8:12 is such an underrated joke.
That was my favourite, couldn’t stop laughing
Sad part I didn't get it. Can anyone explain?
Tom Hank's wife is gorgeous. Lucky man.
Window dressing
i love this guy..
Wow, so many great young stars there.
8:43 Sigourney!!!!
Love this monologue, but I have to admit that the only reason I rewacth it almost every year is for the pleasure of seeing Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix looking like they're too cool for school. Makes me giggle every time.
Steves make the world go round.
He WAS and I hope he STILL is.... AMAZING-SO CLEVER-TWISTY-SUBVERSIVE!!! In his movies, he was SO EXPRESSIVE!!!
