This is how these speeches always are — the constant clapping after every point. It’s fucking unbearable.

But why can’t they do a makeover and outlaw the fucking clapping at these events?! Why, why, why?! Just let the fucker talk.

Um, no, please, we want/need to win, thank you. It’s not the trolls who are going to nix the idea of Hillary in 2020, it’s the Dems who want to win an election. Jesus fracking Christo.

I was hoping to find such faiths that have unfailingly kind followers.

Probably a super right-leaning/Orthodox channel, catering to that very specific audience.

All the name-related joking is straight from the “Uma, Oprah, Oprah, Uma” playbook (when Letterman hosted). It didn’t work back then either (Letterman’s performance was widely panned).

All the Jews I’ve known in my lifetime have been incredibly smart, enlightened, kind and fun to be with.

Agreed. He was always boring/blah to me, kinda like Ryan Gosling is now.

Don’t you know that everyone who comments on message boards behind the safety of their own computer screens is entirely infallible?

It happened once before, in a much less “important” category and in a much less f-d up way. But there WAS an envelope gaffe:

I agree with Gunrack. This insanity is far more memorable than that typical pomp and circumstance. Most people quickly forget which movies won best picture, but this made for a pretty unforgettable ultimate victory.

Death takes no holidays — every year is chock full of ‘em!

Alexis was the very definition of a bit player.

This whole story never happened. Candy was memorialized in the ‘94 broadcast.

These people spreading bad info. Candy was not excluded. He made it into the March 1994 Oscars In Memoriam.

Never happened. He appeared in the 1994 Oscars In Memoriam, as did River Phoenix (other people on this board are saying he was also dissed).

What’s your stance on this when it comes to politicians? If Bill Clinton (who at the very least is a misogynist who grossly abused his power) were allowed to run for president again, would you vote for him?

Yeah, the problem is, in Hollywood, you’re really not going to have a lot of folks of the male persuasion to follow if you omit all the creeps and misogynists and abusers. That arena isn’t full of a lot of sweet, fluffy nice dudes (and there are plenty of awful women, too, of course). Tom Hanks, maybe? And I’m sure…

The Oscars are not the Emmys. The Emmys are for TV.

Have you taken a look at Alexis’s film credits? They didn’t name her in the same way that they didn’t name Anna Nicole Smith. Neither of them were movie stars or even regularly working cinema actresses.
