Oscar upset poll..

[tomandshell]

I would vote #5 off that list, for sure. I was shocked when Private Ryan didn't win. After winning best director minutes earlier, I think that Spielberg was already half way out of his seat when Harrison Ford came onstage to hand the Oscar over to him. That was the biggest true upset that I have seen over the years.

I still remember the shocked and disgusted look on Harrison Ford's face when he opened the envelope.

It would suck to be chosen as the presenter so that you can hand a coveted award over to a friend and frequent collaborator, only to find out the envelope had something else in mind...

I often wish Ford had just said, "**** it.", ripped up the envelope and walked off the stage.
