I agree Jeff. But I do think that it is also up to the older generation to educate the younger one. I can't tell you how many people older than me who don't even know who William Powell or Peter Lorre was. It's ridiculous.
You saw that the stars of High School Musical were excited to get a glimpse of Meryl Streep. That made me hopeful.

I know he had fans in the business. Not huge but most of the older actors didn't get huge applause.

I was waiting to see the audience reaction and I don't recall they showed him. And he did pass away in '08 so he should have been included?

They spent so much time trying to feature the singer and zooming in and out on the screen that there were some names that you could not read. That is not a segment that they should be messing with and trying to make it fancy. Just focus on the screen and leave it alone.
