Not to mention the fact that he is also half of New Zealand's 4th most popular folk comedy duo.

love how Jason Segel is the first one to start clapping! he looks like a proud father <3

[commentguy]

Pretty amazing he went from a background character in the lord of the rings to an academy award winner

[juneauz]

He should've got it for "Too Many Dicks On The Dance Floor"

[SonnyGTA]

His wife is so are his children....and his children's children.

I love how it’s always the comedic actors that have the most fun when presenting an Oscar whereas other presenters just walk up, read nominees and announce winner and walk off. Like when Ben stiller did the best visual effects for 2006 he was dressed in a green screen suit pretending he was invisible 😂😂😂 and now will and Zach with the symbols 😂

I was concerned as to why there weren't four songs nominated a Oscar that year. But I'm glad Man or Muppet from The Muppets won the Oscar. Best song of the movie, alongside "Life's A Happy Song".

[WaldoAKAWally]

Thanked everyone but Jermaine and Murray...

[michaeljenkins]

Mentioned everyone but the guy who wrote, produced and starred in the film!  That was Jason Segel's one chance to be mentioned in an Oscars ceremony.  Well, unless he makes it into the In Memoriam segment.

[Pyroshen]

I felt bad for Jason. He got cut to twice and Bret didn't mention him even though he was the star who PERFORMED the winning song.

[FancyFriend]

bret is so good looking he could totally be a part time model

[jayrobson]

lol @ jason segel face
"And I would like to thank....Jim Henson"

[manuelorozco]

Life's A Happy Song should have been nominated. But Real in Rio and Man or Muppet are both wonderful songs. One of pure jubiliation and one of melancholy!

[Jayess-c]

If Zach and will had a movie together I'd watch it in a heartbeat.

[homieblossom]

why the fuck was there only 2 songs nominated that year, it makes absolutely no sense

[iluvugoldenblue]

and the fact that jemaine is a voice in the movie rio is cool too

[lightingmcqueen]

his whole speech should've been :" binary solo!

[asecretone]

Excuse me, m'am, the name of the band is the Flute of the Commodores.

[StephenPike]

a win for all the FOTC fanx out there. A better guy could not have won it. Love Bret.
Though, only two songs were nominated, so he had a pretty good chance of winning.
