I can understand him stopping laughing when he saw his wife was upset. Any decent person would do the same. But to go from laughter to violent rage like that...wow.

I bet the people who produce it are thinking about ways to use this to increase next year's viewing figures ("how about, instead of someone just opening the envelope and reading out the winner, we have a cage fight?")

Despite the year to year improvements (15.36 million last night), Sunday’s Oscars will go down as the second least watched since Nielsen began tracking total viewers in the mid-1970s. Prior to last year the audience had never fallen below 20 million viewers.

One movie that won was a streaming only movie. Does this mean that television movies are now eligible for a Oscar?

For example I think the the original Spectre movie deserved an Oscar.

The Doctor Who centenary special is going to be feature-length. Just saying.

Top Gun: Maverick: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Q_KJZ16SoU Youtube poster comment:
Scoobydoo-Forever

8 hours ago: 'He also threw a major fit when he (and film crew) was trying to get on to our base because the MA's refused to salute him and he wanted to be saluted So he left. This is why there was a pause and filmmaking for a little while because he wanted to be treated like an officer when he's not and the MAs refused to salute him. He didn't come back to film for a long time because of that. He was also very disrespectful to anyone who wanted to talk to him while he was on our base Looking around the hanger Bay. He acted high and mighty and thought he was better than everybody else. Needless to say, fellow Navy members were really pissed off about when he came back because how he treated others. You're also not allowed to talk about top gun at all as a pilot in the hangers because you get in big trouble. (On our base) A lot of people join to try and be like Maverick and it causes a lot of issues.'

Would you believe I've still never seen the original film after all these years?

While American Airlines flights aren't yet bookable and the flight schedule isn't known, Miami to Ocho Rios is expected to begin in November, operate 2x weekly, and use Envoy's 76-seat Embraer 175s. Ocho Rios' airport is called Ian Fleming International Airport. It takes its name from the James Bond creator and writer, and the area is of significance to the brand and various movies, including Goldeneye. There's even a James Bond Beach and Goldeneye resort nearby. The James Bond reference isn't lost on American. It has said it'll use the flight number AA4007 :!:

If you mean Fleming's former estate then yes, a music producer bought it in the 70's sliced it up and made it a resort. I believe it's Babbzy's favorite spot to lock herself away from the dangerous black people (as she alluded to in an email to Amy Pascal) when visiting the island nation.

The great thing about these is the fact they are so plausible. The amazon one had me for a split second considering the "source."
