Academy Awards 2012: Funny Moments to remember from Oscar 2012; The Oscar telecast takes hours, but it's the moments we remember. Just a few of them, of course ones that are so emotional, funny, or bizarre that they'll stand out in our collective memories, candidates for future Oscar montages, of course, but also for office watercooler talk.

Later he was even blunter- "We're gonna slam the 78 to 84 demographic," he said. Next year, he added, we'd be in the Flomax Theater, referring to the prostate medication.
