I want to know what kind of people go on a tour to the theater where presumably they said "where the Oscars are held" and not be like "isn't that

From moment one, I wondered if that was staged to some extent. -- nm - ty97 Feb 27, 11:37
I want to know what any producer was smoking -- (edited) - znufrii, not a sociologist Feb 27, 11:15 23
- I didn't like them laughing at ordinary people's expense. The host was as much as saying "look at these pathetic starstruck people". - Loyola Feb 27, 11:19 18
  - "Ordinary people" - znufrii, not a sociologist Feb 27, 11:29
  - Yeah, but they were well "compensated". -- nm - Spawn Feb 27, 11:25 8
    - You know Jax is hunting down the person who walked away with JANIS glasses. [nm] - Mel Profit Feb 27, 11:32 7
      - "Come on, Jen, give him some of your boob tape." -- nm - Max Feb 27, 11:36 6
        
        "If you give him that maybe he'll stop rubbing up against the limo window." -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 27, 11:38 5
        
        "Oh god, he's taped his nipples to the window." -- nm - Max Feb 27, 11:39 4
        
        "this is creepier than the scene in 'Midnight Express'!" -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 27, 11:41 3
        
        "that's not his nipple!" -- nm - budice Feb 27, 11:43 2
        
        this escalated perfectly. -- nm - Diva Feb 27, 11:44 1
        
        We're the ST Boys. -- nm - Max Feb 27, 11:47
  - I've bristled at some of his "foreigner" skits as well. - Mel Profit Feb 27, 11:22 5
    - He is a Trump secret agent!!! -- nm - Spawn Feb 27, 11:38
    - yeah - and the way he made fun of Mahershala's name and the tourist Yuraly. - Diva Feb 27, 11:25 3
      - Yep - the next guy had an easy name which he made sure to contrast. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 27, 11:28 2
        
        "Patrick. That's a name." -- nm - Andie Feb 27, 11:29 1
        
        hmph. -- nm - Diva Feb 27, 11:44
  - There's a truth to this -- nm - budice Feb 27, 11:21
  - Well, he was inspired by Letterman. -- nm - Max Feb 27, 11:20
- it was hilariously fun though - oblique, SuperFeud Champion Feb 27, 11:16 3
  - Meh. -- nm - znufrii, not a sociologist Feb 27, 11:18 2
    - you're just dead inside -- nm - oblique, SuperFeud Champion Feb 27, 11:18 1
      - I'll grant it was slightly amusing at first, but it got bogged down and ended up far to drawn out. -- (edited) - znufrii, not a sociologist Feb 27, 11:26
I'd presume they said something more like "The tour will include a free trip to an exhibition of Hollywood gowns and costumes" -- nm - Roger More Feb 27, 11:14 5
- Wish they had shown more of the setup footage, wondering just how staged it was. -- nm - budice Feb 27, 11:15 4
  - You think any part of it wasn't? -- nm - znufrii, not a sociologist Feb 27, 11:16 3
    - You think they were actors, or informed a head of time? -- nm - Max Feb 27, 11:18 2
      - At least the latter, probably had to sign all sorts of releases and whatnot. -- (edited) - znufrii, not a sociologist Feb 27, 11:19 1
        
        1) There's all kinds of street closures, 2) Oscars swag is plastered everywhere. Certainly to be on a Hollywood tour during the Oscars... - budice Feb 27, 11:21
unless they came in some back entrance. -- nm - Andie Feb 27, 11:11 2
- Yep, I thought they were expecting to see some kind of Oscar museum - expecting to be in a different part of the building. -- nm - Meg Feb 27, 11:16 1
  - I'm a little surprised there wasn't more of a meme created over Pete, the guy with the nametag on his hat -- nm - oblique, SuperFeud Champion Feb 27, 11:17
