Thank you! I always thought it was in bad taste for people to clap during those montages...I wish everyone would just hold their applause until the end...

Take that Discovery channel! They refused to air this documentary because they said it was "too controversial". HBO will show it now.

Why are there 3 people on stage when only 2 of them are winners?

Aw, no speech from Michael Moore this year!

Anyone else notice that Brad Renfro got screwed by that death montage?

I think its because his SAG union membership had lagged. Seriously.

I noticed! I think it's pretty callous if they excluded him because of that. His contributions were made while he was a member so he should have been mentioned. Bastards.

That is strange. I was thinking it was because he died so recently, but he died on January 15th, which was before the end date they had in the credits. That sucks.

Didn't Renfro die before Heath Ledger though?

You're right. I had a wrong idea about timing but I edited my post once I checked the dates.

"We drove cars off cliffs and people got out and walked away. We're not going to do that [in the movie]. In this the tone is more dangerous - you can really die. It's very tense and exciting."
