Why would you have like 5+ 'musical performances' at an event for film? Sure some of the songs that were performed were in some of the movies, but you're taking up over 20minutes of the event with music? It just seems stupid at a film event.
The oscars this year didn't have a host... instead they used a bunch of different actors to 'host' the oscars... the HUGE problem with this is that instead of having a great host who's funny & witty 100% through the entire awards event, you're now depending on 30+ people to be funny & witty (which just doesn't happen EVER). So you've automatically left with a less-funny & less-witty awards event, because you chose to not have a single host. Some of the 'hosts' were funny, but about 80% of them weren't funny or witty at all. Almost all the lines that they read off from the teleprompter were so stiff and flatly delivered, that you just KNEW they were going to deliver the punch line next, and if you know when the punch line is going to come, then a joke isn't funny.
Overall, the awards had too little funny, was too scripted and had too many musical intermissions. It didn't have many ads though, so that's good.
