Some of the things in Rock's monologue but other parts made me cringe, like the fact that he was trying to point out how this not nominating actors of color was casual racism but then back pedaling a few seconds later and committing casual sexism when making the joke about not asking women about their clothes. In the end, I almost feel like he played it too safe. But, then again, it's the Oscars not a roast. Or is it?
