I have some friends over right now and we're watching the Academy Awards.

Some time during hour-one, they had a tribute to Bob Hope. During the tribute, they showed his various appearances at the award ceremony. The last part of the tribute video showed an aged Mr. Hope rising from his seat in the audience. It seemed like he was in attendance.

My friends and I were shocked! We considered for a second: Waaaaait! We all thought that he had died last year. A few seconds later we came to our senses and realized that Mr. Hope rising from his chair was part of the tribute package, rather than a cut to live action.

Did this same reaction happen at any of your Oscar parties out there?

I noticed that also; I knew he's dead, so I knew it had to be a clip from a few years ago, but I know what you mean because it did look odd for a moment.
