The boys had jokes discussing the various Bonds (Connery, Craig, etc.), mostly centered around which one was the GOAT. Hawk was throwing shade, and snowboarder Shaun White may have done a little acting when insulted.

Not all were too happy with the athletes’ inclusion, though. Some took to Twitter before the show to question why presenters with no cinema ties would be included in the lineup, to which Hawk took issue. “If being in every Jackass movie, xXx, Police Academy 4 and Sharknado 5 doesn’t qualify me to present at the Oscars, then your taste in movies needs readjusting,” the pro skater Tweeted.
