Bryant Burnette 451 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Great article, and about eighty reminders why even though they f--k up more frequently than ought to be possible, the Oscars are required viewing for any fan of Hollywood.

John Crichton 4 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Empire sure loves their lists, don't they? And I keep reading them. #69 is amusing.What about when John Williams stormed the stage, snatched Gustov Santolllallallala's 2nd Oscar away from him, and repeatedly beat him over the head with it? ...Or did I just dream that?

Red 73 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Pretty great list, although it's kind of crazy to think of how many huge mistakes they've made over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
