For more than one hundred years the world has been fascinated by the movies. They are more than just an entertainment. They are the force that binds us together, the common link that touches the humanity of all of us, and that’s why we love to watch the movies. And so, tonight, our academy invites the world to celebrate the magic of going to the movies. Enjoy!
一百多年以來,我們被電影迷住了。電影不僅僅是一種娛樂,它還是把我們連結(jié)在一起的一股力量,是觸及所有人心中最善良一面的共同紐帶,這就是我們喜歡看電影的原因。因此,今晚,我們電影學(xué)院邀請(qǐng)全世界一起慶祝看電影的魅力。一起分享吧!
小編點(diǎn)評(píng):到底是英國(guó)老紳士,與美國(guó)主持人的洋洋灑灑不一樣,康納利的開場(chǎng)白開門見山,言簡(jiǎn)意賅,讓人不得不服。

(sing) It’s a wonderful time for Oscar, Oscar, Oscar. Who will win?
Yes! Here we are, the 76th Oscars, and he’s still gold. His hip is 1)titanium, but he’s still gold. Tonight we’re being broadcast in 53 languages, and that’s just for Los Angeles alone. And for the very, very first time we’re being 2)simulcast in 3)Aramaic. We have wonderful stories tonight: a lot of first-time nominees, and I want you all to know—all you first-timers—it is customary to tip the host.
First timer Charlize Theron. Man! Charlize, Miss Theron, you look absolutely beautiful, but in that movie you scared the bejeezus out of Mel Gibson. I can’t believe that you was [were] that scary in that person in this. Look at this! This is not possible!
Mel Gibson’s movie; unbelievable hit. Hundred and seventeen million dollars; opened on 4)Ash Wednesday, had a 5)Good Friday, a better Saturday and Sunday. Unbelievable!
Another first-timer, Keisha Castle-Hughes, just 13 years old, there you are. Thirteen! You’re too young to have three names.
I first hosted the show 13 years ago. Things were so different then. You know how different it was? Bush was President, the economy was 6)tanking and we just finished a war with Iraq. Isn’t that amazing? Unbelievable! Thirteen years ago.
我是比利·克里斯托。我是你們今晚的船長(zhǎng)和指揮官,呃,一直到明天都是。那么,我們開始吧。男人們,開始表現(xiàn)你們的自我吧。
