Did they include Shirley Temple in the tribute? Ihad just woken up from a nap at that time but don't recall seeing her name.

I looked it up and she died February 10, 2014 so she was probably included in last years Oscar telecast.

She was probably in last years list, as she passed before the Oscar's last year (she passed in Feb, Oscars were in March)

I must be getting old then. I can't believe it has already been a year since she passed!

Sometimes when I am watching the tribute I think "wow, I thought they passed away a long time ago" or the opposite "I didn't know they passed".

Yeah it was last year. I can tell you this people on facebook are complaining galore that they didn't have Joan Rivers in that remembrance tribute.

Joan should have been listed...I wonder how they could have overlooked her....

Shirley Temple and Joan Rivers died this year. I didn't see Hoffman either. I forget his first name, he played Trueman Capote, and died of heroin OD?

I still can't get over them leaving Farrah Fawcett out of the tribute when she died. She was a 70's icon !

IMO they should've mentioned her.

Apparently you have to be a member of the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences and Joan wasn't. It's by invitation only.

I don't know about Joan (or the criteria for being listed on the Oscar In Memoriam) but Philip Seymour Hoffman and Shirley Temple Black were both listed last year as they passed before the ceremony in 2014.

Shirley Temple and Phillip Seymour Hoffman died last year and were included in last year's tribute.

Oh, I get it now. That is odd, I always thought it was the whole year. Well that makes sense now.

I see that Louis Jourdan was added to this year's tribute after a few days from his death.

What movies was Joan in? There was her documentary and some TV movies. I'm not sure why she would have been included.

Yes, I remember seeing his name. So sad he's gone.

C'mon !!! ..... Joan wasn't a film actress, nor a member of the fil academy .... and I've never seen a TV fashion interviewer listed in the tributes .... she really didn't qualify.
