So how long did he serve for the rape charge? Was that his second, and then the bottle of perfume did him in for life?

If you're tired of the Oscars Best Picture fiasco story, don't read this. I understand. But I found this pretty hilarious.

Oscars' stage manager throws Price Waterhouse accountants under the bus, gets in the bus, runs them over, does a 180 and then runs them over again.

Interesting that everyone was reporting that someone screamed "He took the wrong envelope!" or something to that effect right after they called LaLa Land the winner. This story makes a lot more sense. And also explains why they won't let Ruiz do the Oscars again either.

Sigh. One of the few nice things about Oscar nominations are those times in the Best Animated Film category when films like The Red Turtle manage to get attention instead of something like Finding Dory. That might change, based on rule changes that have been made.

Nominations for Best Animated Feature will now be in the hands of the entire Academy, not just the members of the Short Films and Feature Animation Branch.

What the hell? Thats really odd.
