So Hugh Jackman is officially not returning as Oscar host next year. Which made us ask you lot who you thought should get the job.
Once again, our awesome readers have stepped up, so we're picking and publishing our favourites.
Here are 21 of the best…

Kermit The Frog
Suggested By: ReynardCity
Past Form: If Kermit became Oscar host he’d have to introduce a wide variety of weird, wild and wonderful characters who’d make bad jokes, do dance numbers, and occasionally wield wacky props. It’s The Muppet Show with fancier outfits, basically.
Show Highlight: When Gonzo launches himself out of a cannon to present the lifetime achievement Oscar.
Sample Speech: “And now a man who needs no introduction, so what am I doing out here?”

Kanye West
Suggested By: Tiny_Winchester
Past Form: If the Academy wants press for their little Awards ceremony, they should hire Kanye. It seems that he can’t attend an event without causing some controversy – imagine what he’d do as host.
Show Highlight: The opening montage, directed by Spike Jonze, which ends with West descending on wires from the ceiling, vomiting rose petals on the audience.
Sample Speech: "Yo James Cameron. I’m really happy for you. I’ma let you finish but Scorsese had one of the best movies of all time. One of the best movies of all time!”
Next: RoboCop, Pamela Anderson

“Conduct your Oscar acceptance speech. You have ten seconds to comply.” Surely you're looking for ED-209 then?

Perhaps "Finish the speech, or there will be... trouble".
