The question is, who swapped the envelopes around?

Was it Donald Trump taking his revenge against some actors who have been criticising his policies. (He wasn't tweeting for a couple of hours and has no alibi so he could have been there.)
Was Putin behind it?
Perhaps it was Kim Jong Un?

or

Maybe it was something simple like Warren Beatty missing his appointment at Specsavers!

Obviously a stunt to get mentioned all over the internet and the news. What sucks is they made a meme out of the best picture winner and everyone involved's moment.

not embarrassed to say that i was tearing up from the moment she opened her mouth to the moment she walked off the stage - the rest of the night was kind of anti-climatic. the best picture snafu was just kind of really anti-climatic... kind of a wtf buzkill...

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Amazing what 25 years can do. Jack Palance read the wrong name for best supporting actress and no one said anything because no one actually knew what was written on the cards. The people who did the card typing/envelope stuffing were not there and Jack was all by his lonesome up there so no partner to disagree with him.


This time, there is something spoken wrong and everybody knew it was read wrong. I guess things are no longer secret. Seriously, how many people knew what the actual answer was last night? Seemed to be a lot of people.

I loved the way Justin Timberlake opened the show, and the bus full of tourists was priceless. I also thought the little parachutes of candy was a brilliant idea. The whole debacle at the end was an unfortunate event caused by the Price/Waterhouse/Cooper guy. I felt really bad for the "Moonlight" people, they kind of lost what could have been a very shining moment for them.

I thought the La La Land producer, Jordan Horowitz handled it very badly, the way he snapped the card from Warren Beatty's hands. Jimmy Kimmel was about to take it, and if you watch him, he's saying "wha?"

I just thought it was sour grapes...But I was so happy for Moonlight because they still got to celebrate the win properly.

The first time I saw Viola Davis in a movie was in Doubt, with Meryl Streep and Phillip Seymour-Hoffman. I was impressed with her then and in everything I've seen her in since. That was one of my ten favorite Oscar speeches ever.

That Viola Davis clip is magnificent, thanks Nia for sharing. Absolutely beautiful with words and so full of emotion and truth. Just amazing.

A moment that was, perhaps, on fewer people's radar but had us space geeks smiling was the appearance by Katherine Johnson, one of the NASA mathematicians who inspired Hidden Figures, on stage with the cast of the movie. Too bad they didn't take home any hardware, but paying tribute to the real-life heroes who inspired the film was a classy move.



And one of the space bloggers I follow pointed out that the woman pushing Katherine's wheelchair is an astronaut. How far we've come from the days when women toiled in the shadows at NASA while men got the glory.

Yes, anyone not moved by her speech was either dead or stone cold. And, I would be amiss if I didn't agree with the post above me. When Katherine Johnson was rolled out I was moved beyond tears. These women deserve their place in history.
