The ‘Oscar thing,’ of course, is how the Academy apparently messed up giving the right envelope to the presenter for Best Picture and thus hi-jinks ensued. But that’s boring. I want to believe that something else made it happen. Something absurd, and light-hearted, and not going down dark paths. Seriously, nothing about Reptoids or anything like that. That always gets weird fast.

PS: I already thought of blaming Deadpool for this one, but I don’t think Ryan Reynolds has the resources to set it up. Although he’s probably kicking himself now for not even trying.
I kid you not, President Trump is supposed to be responsible for the flubbed. That’s the popular theory floating around Hollywood right now. Those people have lost their damn minds and are slowly losing touch with reality.

I am not getting political. Just saying.
No, I’ll allow it. Because you’re right: that’s not political. That’s madness.
Ratings have dropped enough, I can almost believe it was intentionally done, to grab attention.
Lighthearted? Tinkerbell really liked La La Land, and switched the envelopes. Or the Ghost of Fred Astaire.
The Old Gods are coming back, and Coyote was bored.
PWC is really just that incompetent?

*Conspiracy* theory. Right.
.
The PWC guy was paid off to slip any wrong envelope to Dunaway and Beatty by Mark Burnett .. didn’t matter which one, although “best picture (in another category)” was preferred ..
.
This is to continue to drive down Oscar ratings, and to drive up ratings for Burnett’s “Peoples’ Choice Awards” show.

Apparently the PWC rep minding the envelopes was tweeting pics of Emma Stone from back stage. Perhaps, unsatisfied with best actress, Emma wanted to go for the sweep. She starts chatting up the PWC guy. One thing leads to another, and who figures once an announcement is made the producers would have the stones to be Steve Harvey 2.0 on a bigger stage? But… they did.
