Maybe some people can believe it was just an honest mistake.
On the biggest stage for these Hollywood types. Who thrive on publicity and being in the spotlight and attention.
I mean...the pieces are all there. How some people can't see the boat is beyond me.
I'm not saying it was or wasn't. I'm saying I don't know for sure so I'm not gonna act like one of them is fact

It's not just some jackleg.
It is 2 of the PWC partners that each have envelopes and each take different routes to the show with their own security details.

If anybody would have been in on it, it is Warren Beatty. Why in the blue frick would he want this to be the lasting memory of his legacy in film? There is literally nobody that this is good for except the tards who've been waiting all night to get in the circle jerk shouting "Melt, liberal snowflakes, Hollywood liberals, Melt!!!"

I for one am really excited to hear what they have to say about Trump and politics. Like it or not, what these actors and directors and all have to say tonight matters. Their words will carry weight. More Americans respect Hollywood than Trump
Their words carry zero weight for me regardless of the content. That's why I no longer watch these shows. I watch movies for entertainment. I don't give a rat's hiney about this industry's political beliefs and don't believe awards shows are the place to express them.

La La Land is best picture. That other movie can be co-winner.

I can't speak to that. La La Land is one of the best movies I have ever seen. I didn't see the other one, but it isn't my kind of movie so I doubt I would have liked it.

Is anyone able to replay Leo/Beatty walking on stage? I'd hope they walked in from different sides.
What does Leo have to do with this?
There are two sets of envelopes. One PWC partner stands at the left of the stage and the other stands at the right of the stage. They each have one set of winning envelopes. The only way that the extra envelope could have accidentally been given out is if Beatty/Leo walked on stage from different sides.

Nothing about this shocks me. Everyone knew a minority movie was winning best picture
Moonlight wasn't best picture by a mile.
Just like Crash, this movie will be forgotten about in a few months

I haven't seen either movie, but are you looking at this objectively? Is it possible that Moonlight was just the better movie?

just saying i saw numerous tweets last night after it was all over saying the oscars is still too white.
Blacks won 3 of the 6 main categories, is it ever enough? All of this bending over backwards over 12% of the population
everyone knew about last years backlash that a black movie would win best picture

All of what you said is so true

Have you seen Moonlight?

Of course it doesn't. But let's be honest, a movie about gay blacks winning after the SJW crusade about their not being enough black oscar winners...seems a little too convenient.
If it was something like Glory or Rent...sure.

No kidding
The year after the white guilt/lack of diversity narrative at the Oscar you throw out a gay minority movie. Bam. Done deal

Fair enough. Like I said, I haven't seen either movie so I just wanted your perspective.
But remember that last year's bitch fest was started by the Will Smith family.

Just watched a clip of the mistake. That was so setup it is ridiculous. Hollywood is such a joke.
