Welcome, and most importantly, congratulations!

Congratulations to everyone who's nominated tonight.

Thank you for letting me be a part of this.

I'm excited. I've never been to the Oscars before.

and the way you people go through hosts, it's probably my last time here, so I'm gonna enjoy this while I'm here.

This broadcast is being watched live by millions of Americans

and around the world in more than 225 countries that now hate us.

As you know, I don't have to tell anybody, the country is divided right now.

people have been telling me it's time to bring everyone together

you need to say something to unite us, and

let's just get something straight off the top

I'm not-- I can't do that. That's not-- there's only one Braveheart

in this room, and he's not gonna unite us either.  Okay?

Mel, you look great. I think the Scientology is working, I really do.

I'm not the man to unite this country, but it can be done.

You know, if every person watching this show

I don't want to get too serious, but there are millions and millions of people watching right now

and if every one of you took a minute to reach out to one person

you disagree with - someone you like - and have a positive

considerate conversation - not as liberals or conservatives

as Americans, if we would all do that, we could make America great again. We really could.

And tonight, in the spirit of healing and bringing people together, I would like to bury the hatchet

with someone I've had issues with.  I would.

Matt Damon. Now Matt, I've known Matt for a long time now.

You know, I've known Matt so long, when I first met Matt, I was the fat one.

And we've had problems. He's a selfish person.

Those of you who have worked with him know this.

But Matt did something very unselfish and I want to commend him for it.

For real. Matt, as you probably know, could have starred

in "Manchester By The Sea", he was the producer

it's nominated for six Oscars including Lead Actor

and he could have taken that lead actor part for himself.

But he didn't, he gave that role to Casey Affleck, his childhood friend.

He handed what turned out to be an Oscar caliber role

over to his friend and made a Chinese ponytail movie instead.

And that movie, "The Great Wall" went on to lose 80 million dollars.

See? It's so easy to reach out and heal. And I want to say-- maybe this is not

a popular thing to say, but I want to say thank you to President Trump.

I mean remember last year when it seemed like the Oscars were racist?

What a night. It has been an amazing year for movies.

Black people saved NASA and white people saved jazz.

A little movie musical named, "La La Land" ties the all time Oscar record

Fourteen nominations.  Fourteen nominations: one for every year Damien has been alive.

Tonight is very important for Damien: if he wins, he'll be able to go to any college he wants.

The movie business is changing. For the first time ever, Amazon is represented

at the Academy Awards. Amazon is the first streaming service nominated for Best Picture.

Jeff Bezos is the founder and CEO and I want to say congratulations to Jeff

you know, and I also want you to know, Jeff, if you win tonight you can expect your Oscar

Possibly stolen by a Grubhub delivery man.

You know if you search for "Manchester By The Sea" on Amazon it says

"Customers who bought this item also purchased Zoloft.

I don't know what's going on but there are a lot of sad movies this year.

Of all the nominees, the only happy ending of all the nominees was the one in the middle of "Moonlight".

You didn't watch it, did you?  "Oh we love it so much!"

The incredible Denzel Washington is nominated for "Fences" - a movie he also directed.

I don't know, you've probably heard the story of how it came together: apparently Denzel had always wanted

to work with Denzel, and it just so happened that their schedules worked out

and the rest is Oscar history. Congratulations to you, my friend.

We have friends and colleagues visiting from all around the world tonight.

The great actress from France, Isabelle Huppert, is here with us.

Isabelle, as you know, is nominated for her performance

in the movie, "Elle" and on behalf of everyone here, I would like to say

we didn't see "Elle" but we absolutely loved it. You were amazing in that film

and I'm glad Homeland Security let you in tonight. I really am.

We are very welcoming to outsiders here in Hollywood.

We don't discriminate against people based on what countries they come from

we discriminate against them based on their age and weight.

Andrew Garfield lost 40 pounds - where is Andrew?

Oh you can barely even see him, he got so thin

There he is. He lost 40 pounds for his role in the movie, "Silence".

It was an astonishing physical transformation that hasn't been attempted since every actress in every role ever.

Viggo Mortensen, who is terrific, is nominated for Best Actor

for his performance in the movie, "Captain Fantastic"

and it is so well deserved. Too often The Academy only recognizes movies that people have seen.

We are here tonight to honor great actors

but we're also here to honor the actors who seem great, but actually really aren't.

And of all the "great" actors here in Hollywood

one in particular has stood the test of time for her many uninspiring and overrated performances.

And may I say, from her mediocre early work in "The Dear Hunter" and "Out of Africa"

to her underwhelming performances in "Kramer vs. Kramer" and "Sophie's Choice",

Meryl Streep has phoned it in for more than 50 films

over the course of her lackluster career.

Made even more amazing considering the fact that she wasn't even in a movie this year
