The 66th Annual Academy Awards

Originally, Macaulay Culkin was scheduled to give the award for Best Visual Effects. The plan was, after Culkin announced the nominees, he would say, "Could I have the envelope please?" A giant, roaring, animatronic T-Rex (from Jurassic Park (1993)) would then suddenly appear onstage, with the envelope naming the winners. After taking the envelope from the T-Rex's mouth, Culkin would return to the podium and say, "Thanks, Dad." Macaulay's father, Kit Culkin, was offended by the line and demanded that it be cut from the show. When the Oscar producers refused, Kit Culkin pulled his son from the show, and Elijah Wood gave the award instead.
