    i'm actually very excited for this show! but something that sounds this promising brings us back to our happiness when J-Law hosted.


    So now we have 2 Django hosts this year. Alabama Shakes are great, too.



    On a side note, I'm really expecting Rebel Wilson to host in March or April, Pitch Perfect is becoming such a hit on DVD and she's hosting the MTV Movie Awards. I can just picture Aidy having her as a friend on Girlfriends Talk Show trying to get back at Cecily's character.

    This. Is. Fantastic.

    He was beyond amazing in Django, and it's been a while since we've had an actor of his caliber on the show. Since Eli Manning, anyway.

    Great news. He is insanely talented. Even though I'm worried his accent might become a problem (not as bad as Banderas oder Vergara but still).


    Also I think he might be the first german AND first austrian host in SNL history (dual citizenship).

    I do not know if I've ever seen anything he has been in, but I have heard great reviews about his acting.

    Beside Basterds and Django I also remember him being in The Green Hornet, Water for Elephants and The Three Musketeers. IMDB also lists Carnage (by Roman Polanski).


    A good resume for 3 years of acting in Hollywood.

    You are correct.


    Also, I dig Alabama Shakes!

    I saw Carnage. And my mom saw Water Of Elephants, and said he was excellent in it.

    I'd give anything for MIke Myers to cameo and do a Dieter sketch.

    Of course we get Carnival Cruise lines as an opener, It was good I was worried when Jay went into his Chris Rock impersonation.

    Loved that they turned the question on him in the game show--and strange that Hader didn't host the game show.

    Papal Securities was funny.

    Kevin Hart is a nice choice, but the musical guest choice makes me want to cringe. That pardo replacement was just strange
