This was one of the funnier moments in a night devoid of comedy. Natalie Portman presented the award for Best Cinematography alongside Ben Stiller, who showed up with a snarly beard to poke fun at Joaquin Phoenix's bizarre appearance on The Late Show. But given that this was the cinematography award, wouldn't a jab at Christian Bale's DOP rant been more fitting?

Actually poking fun a Phoenix here is a better play. The Bale tirade is laced with profanity and the audience for the Oscars isn't 17 and over.
I like your thinking Leshock, but next time you post a YouTube video let's make sure it's something you actually produced. Instead of something you stole like Sean Penn did his Golden Statue away from Mickey Rourke.
Bruce... I mean Bale.... Out.
