I expect that Jack was so high, that he thought he was standing.

It could be that being from the old school of Hollywood, Jack believes in artistic integrity, and not giving an Oscar to documentary for a political reason. He MIGHT agree with the message of the documentary, but he might not agree with the reason(s) for awarding it an Oscar.

My sense is that Jack doesn't suffer fools.
To really know, we'd have to ask him though.

As Melvin Udal in As Good As It Gets.... Where do they teach you to talk like this? In some Panama City "Sailor wanna hump-hump" bar, or is it getaway day and your last shot at his whiskey? Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here.

I don't think Jack stands for anything or anyone....pure speculation.I agree with you, but I think it's because he has too much of an ego to stand for anyone else.

Wow...lots of possible reasons posted here on why Jack didn't stand. I think Occam's Razor is in effect. Maybe he just had gas and couldn't stand at that moment.

Well, just because he is a democrat doesn't mean he buys the global warming thing.
Or perhaps he just really hates Algore.

Maybe he regrets his donations to Al Gore in years past. Let's hope so.

I am no fan of Jack Nicholson Are you kidding. Nicholson is the one of the few actors I respect out of Hollywood. He was excellent in "The Departed."

Jerry Seinfeld reacts to Al Gore at the Oscars. I saw it. It was pretty funny.

I can't find a picture, maybe he just fell asleep.
Was he wearing his sunglasses?
