Who cares about the video- I just can’t stop staring at Glen changing colors- is it just me? I almost peed my pants- made it to the bathroom but got blinded by the damn light since it’s four in the morning. Thinking of buying it because I want to try out the rainbow.
@WTFsunshine I know it isn’t Sunday, but “Blinded by the Light” and “Paradise by the Toilet Light” are earworming after your post. I’m sure that there is a song list waiting to be discovered.
I wouldn’t use his award nominations as a knock against him of not being “poor”. It’s an accomplishment he worked towards – it wasn’t just handed to him.
I know this isn’t actually the focus of the video, but I did feel like “poor Warren Beatty”. Within hours, I literally saw dozens of examples of both serious articles and “humorous” images unjustly portraying him as a doddering old buffoon. Like was pointed out here, he absolutely knew something wasn’t right and was showing the envelope to Faye Dunaway as if to say “This seems weird, it has Emma Stone’s name on here also. What do you think?”
Because its no fun ridiculing the faceless PricewaterhouseCoopers firm, Beatty has bore the brunt of the jokes. People interpreted his hesitation (the normal, appropriate reaction) as incompetency, while Dunaway’s oblivious announcement (the more suspect action of the two) went by without criticism. But the blame is clearly on PwC here.
I do feel a little sorry for Warren Beatty. Not because of the Oscar gaffe that most people won’t remember in a month, but because both of his last two movies flopped really hard. Town & Country lost something like $100 million, and this year’s Rules Don’t Apply was one of the lowest wide openings of all time–and that one he wrote, directed, starred in AND produced, so there’s nobody else to take the blame. Neither of them did well with critics either.
