The Academy has bafflingly dedicated 10 minutes of an extremely long broadcast to a James Bond montage featuring intricate song and dance, but at least it makes sense because a Bond movie has been nominated for so many awards tonight.

...what's that? A Bond film hasn't been released in 4 years?

I thought it must have been an anniversary, but Dr No came out in 1962

Is it because the Broccolis are winning the Thalberg?

Could have saved the Bond tribute for the In Memoriam segment.

It's James Bond's In Memoriam number.

It's a funeral, in light of the recent news...

Let them mourn the Amazon acquisition, for pity’s sake!

What WAS the occasion exactly? The sale of the franchise to Amazon. Maybe it was dirge?

I'd bet good money Amazon spent a nice chunk of change trying to cement James Bond nostalgia to cinephiles before whatever is about to happen the franchise happens. Would've loved nobody but Brody getting their speech cut off instead. (As much as I love Halle Berry, and James Bond tbh.)
