A week from now someone at like, Variety or Hollywood Reporter is gonna write an article about exactly how it went down, minute by minute, and it's going to be hilarious. Especially the part where Ryan Gosling will only allow himself to be quoted as saying "hahahahahahahahaha"

Serious question: The second copy of the Best Actress envelope ended up in Beatty's hands, right?

Yes, we have a photo of Beatty holding up a Best Actress envelope and we know that there are two sets of envelopes.

At this point the most likely culprit is the PwC accountant, who would have handed out the wrong envelope to Beatty. I really doubt they have the presenter rummage around the briefcase for the right envelope instead.

Seemingly so. He clearly goes "the gently caress is this?" and shows it to Faye to ask "You seeing this poo poo?" and she just reads the film title she sees ignoring the wider context.

Edit: The gently caress up was bad enough, wrapping up as fast as they did while giving the Moonlight people very little time to gather themselves and talk was worse. Blind panic is a funny thing tho.

I can agree with all that, but I expected Moana because of the Grrl Power aspect. Kubo was extraordinary. I suspect the voters didn't actually watch all the films so didn't actually see Kubo and the two foreign flicks.

Moana was a serviceable movie but it wasn't like, super great. It was aiite.

And then once the mistake is made, Ryan Gosling, who is high as a kite, giggles and then vapes some weed.

How great it must be to know you're not going to win. Gosling was clearly having a blast, and Naomie Harris was the same way.

I'm not 100% sure how they could have done it better though. They were already running long, and like you said, "blind panic." This sort of poo poo has literally never happened during the Oscars.

I saw it about ten times before the movie even came out, maybe they shouldn't put the whole best scene in the preview.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

DC Murderverse posted:

I think he kinda set her up for the fall. he knew something was up, and instead of, like checking, he showed her the thing like he was just trying to be cute and she read the name she saw on the card.
I feel like what happens is Beatty opens the envelope, sees the card, and immediately knows he's got the wrong card, and has no idea what to do now, so he sorta freezes up. Everything he does, the looking offstage, then to the card, then out into the crowd, then the card at a new angle, he's trying to find the person who's gonna tell him what the gently caress to do. The problem is that he's showing nobody else the card and saying nothing, so to everyone else -- including Dunaway -- it looks like he's doing a "ha ha I'm not telling anyone the winner" shtick. And so when she rips the card away from him, it's because she's out of patience with his little gag, so she just looks for a movie name and reads it out loud.

Which just goes to show just how much had to go wrong for the whole thing to happen; if they open the card together or Beatty isn't too shocked to say literally anything at all ("this isn't right", "I think I have the wrong card here", "why does this say Emma Stone", anything), they still could have averted disaster at the last moment. It really took a perfect storm to get the wrong winner named on air.

Whether or not you think Zootopia deserved Best Animated is basically conditional on whether you think the big long drag in the middle with the sloths and then the Godfather joke dragged down the rest of the film too much or not.

Moana was pretty good and pretty and had nice songs and a fresh setting but plot-wise pretty standard Disney stuff.

I liked Kubo best but oh well.

It's actually conditional on if you want to gently caress the rabbit or not.
