I loved the intro. All those non-major nominees getting a moment to say something and have fun, without the nervous pressure of not forgetting to thank someone. And it really drove home that, even if the audience doesn't care about those "smaller" awards, it's still a freaking Oscar and those people are the best in their business. Mixing in the no names with the big names, relating their excitement, accomplishments, disappointments. I though it was wonderful.
