You can always watch Tom Hanks on SNL with Bruce Springsteen as the musical guest, hosting a week after the 92 LA Riots, do a monologue bit where he re-enacts Joe Pesci in Goodfellas with Chris Farley, Phil Hartman, and Mike Myers because Joe Pesci had to cancel to finish shooting Home Alone 2.

Every time I look at the internet now I get the impression I'm watching a couple of international chess grand masters who joined an intelligence service instead of playing chess go up against people who don't know that they're playing chess, much less how to see a fork coming a few moves away.

If Sean Baker wins Best Original Screen Play, Best Editing, Best Director, and Best picture that's going to be insane. Walt Disney is the only other person to have won 4 in 1954 but that was for 4 random documentary and shorts categories with 4 different movies.
