After getting a new president two days ago the academy has announced that former host Ellen Degeneres ("Finding Nemo") will be returning to host the 86th Annual Oscars. After Seth "Ted" MacFlarane's horrible Oscar jokes last year, this will be very refreshing. The star returns as the title character in 2016's "Finding Dory" and has her own talk show.

She pulled in impressive rating in her time as host. In fact, MacFarlane’s ratings were the strongest since she’d hosted. He pulled in 40.3 million viewers, and she brought in 39.9 million.

Have you cashed in your early Oscar predictions? Personally this summer I think the most Oscar worthy film was Tom Cruise's Oblivion. What do you think about this years Academy Awards? Make sure to comment!

The 86th Annual Academy Awards air on March 2.

BOOOO!!!!! She isnt funny at all! I remeber her being very boring the first time! Shame I wanted Eddie Murphy or Seth Macfarlane but if they wanted "DIVERSITY" why not Sofia Vergara? But my top choice wouldve been NEIL PATRICK HARRIS BARNEY STINSON FOR THE WIN!!!!!

No she's too old to play Wonder Woman and she doesnt fit the role physically! Id like Lyn Collins as Wonder Woman!

JerBear@ I'd forgotten about that. And it was only last year. Musta repressed it. I think Hathaway would be alright onher own, though. Nothing against Franco. I love Franco. But I do think his nerves were throwing Hathaway off her game.

Tiny fey and Amy Poehler should co-host the oscars. They were the funniest hosts to this date at the Golden Globes

Seth MacFarlane made me feel like I was watching Spike TV's Oscars.

seth's hosting is more appealing to the general audience. Her hosting will be to stroke the ego's of the stuck up celebrities.
