Oscars: Chris Rock in Talks to Host

Chris Rock is in talks to be the host of the 88th Academy Awards. We’re hearing that there are some issues to be resolved after about a week’s worth of negotiations, but a deal is expected to happen in the next couple of days. If it makes it will mark a coup for newly installed Oscars producers Reginald Hudlin and David Hill.

Rock hosted the 77th Oscarcast in 2005, the second-most-viewed Academy Awards ceremony of the past 10 years, bettered only by the Ellen DeGeneres-hosted show two years ago that drew 43.74 million viewers to ABC.

The 88th Oscars are set for February 28.

I do like when he insults white people (I am one), but that gets old if he does it too much and I have to question if he's a good choice.
 
I thought Rock did a good job back in 05, but didn't he received mixed reviews? I remember he went after Jude Law regarding the number of movies Law was in that year. Sean Penn didn't like the jokes and mentioned it before presenting an award.
