[@RenanCMaia]

RIP Carrie Fisher (1956-2016).

[@jeffswim]

How did I not know Steven Wright is an Oscar winner??!!???

[@jwelch5742]

That's because it's say at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/61st_Academy_Awards.

[@Ma_Ba]

You can actually view the short film on You Tube!

[@captainhaire]

So is Peter Capaldi

[@lukess.s]

@@captainhaire yeah but that's not nearly as weird or interesting is it

[@amparonarbona5142]

RIP Carrie Fisher

[@tammyjej]

“And the Oscar goes to Tin Toy, John Lasseter and William Reeves” And thus, history was made. Pixar’s first Academy Award, John Lasseter’s first Academy Award and the first computer-animated short film to ever win an Academy Award

[@Lars_E_Mou]

Short nominations and Martin Short. What a pun.

[@tvobssesor2797]

Carrie fisher is the love of my life

[@lilybond6485]

Never knew Steven Wright won an Oscar. Makes my day. Love the guy !

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

Dean Parisot winning with Steven Wright, went on to make Galaxy Quest.

[@hunterolaughlin]

R.I.P. Princess Leia. 🙏🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷

[@gnelms24]

I like the part when Martin Short says "Alright I''ll change but the shoes stay!" LOL

[@MelissaThompson432]

He walks pretty good in heels...I never did....

[@alibugg1084]

Carries absolutely beautiful!

[@gradeahonky]

I like how at 4:00 you can see John Lasseter start to get nervous, he knows they are in big trouble if they don't mention Steve Jobs.

[@XJoe360]

I couldn’t tell which one was Carrie and which one was Martin

[@Jared_Wignall]

Steven Wright has an Academy Award and it’s not only awesome, but we’ll deserved.

[@ethicalphytophage]

The shoes didn't stay! ;)

[@MuppetHell]

*_ooo, Marty with glasses_*

[@shabadu9084]

"We're really glad we cut out the other sixty minutes."

[@richfprentice]

Wow look at Carrie Fisher!

[@stephenjones6030]

Aww! I used to WATCH the Oscars!!

[@TheSoundsage]

I tried for a long time to get a (non-bootleg) copy of this film and became convinced the reason it was so hard to find was that the American Psychiatric Association had bought up all the copies: it does no good to give people the idea their psychiatrists are making fun of them(and to get shot for it.)

[@lucashammar8180]

Wait a minute! Steven Wright has an Oscar!? Wow. DiCaprio must be pissed!

[@eamon2please]

Now they're even.

[@Ma_Ba]

2:14 "Aw, so, what are you saying?"

[@scottvasquez1401]

Steven Wright...friends call him Speed.

[@DougJrFan93]

Martin is so funny!

[@sushicourier]

Holy shit! I never knew Steven Wright win an Oscar!

[@Kovy2003]

I Can't Believe Tin Toy Was Made By Pixar

[@mariobabbo3497]

Tin Toy was very revolutionary for using Pixar’s animation system Marionette and their rendering system Renderman for the first time and it later gained attention from Disney, who sealed an agreement to create Toy Story starring Tom Hanks and Tim Allen, which was primarily inspired by elements from Tin Toy.

[@jedijones]

Never again has the Short Films Oscars segment aged so well.

[@marioiacolucci]

Rip Carrie

[@t-royentertainment1421]

Stephen wright thanked Johnny Carson!!!👍

[@jedijones]

And Peter Lassally, Carson and Letterman's producer.

[@mistercool3859]

They mixed up two the winners' names at the end.

[@eamon2please]

No, the captions were prepared ahead of the ceremony. The captioner(s) had no way of knowing whether Wright would stand on the left or the right.

[@NaviJediMaster]

R.I.P Steve Jobs. Pixar wouldn't be what it is without him.

[@MapleSyrupPoet]

Now that's comedy

[@lilybond6485]

Martin Short has beautiful legs. 😂

[@arturomiranda1837]

Good

[@starryeyedtarot8876]

Oh, my sweet Carrie...I miss her. I'm probably the biggest Carrie Fisher fan simply because I've always hated Star Wars. Like, it's just kind of embarrassing and dorky. I think she would have agreed with me. Well, maybe some days. :P R.I.P. sweet princess...this little bit brought such delight to just a few minutes of my Saturday morning.

[@DavidBaruffi]

Oh god, this was the Snow White year wasn't it? Boy, no wonder Bruce Vilanch kept writing this forever afterwards. This was baaaaaaaaaaad writing.

[@CJODell12]

Yeah, Allan Carr produced the show that year, the only time he ever did.

[@pauljamieson333]

❤

[@jeremystennett5942]

It not properly award winner Minnie Mouse

[@marioiacolucci]

Martin short is a cross dresser

[@scottvelardo700]

It must be incredibly tedious to sit in the audience through the taping of an awards show. Just so painful. This clip here is a poorly written bit and an unusually lousy performance by two people who are usually hilarious - probably because the material they were working with is so terrible. Comedians have been doing “drag” bits since forever, but I can’t think of one that’s ever been funny because of the costume. It’s stupid. In this case, it does poke fun in a Carrie Fisher way at the dumb things people worry about, such as wearing the same outfit as someone else. But then they had nothing else to back up the gag. Oh well. Carrie kept trying to play it, though! She was a trouper!
