I would agree, except that they included in the montage people like Isaac Hayes and Maila Nurmi who are more linked to other media, as well as other borderline cases.

I'm not overly worked up about this, but I'm curious as to what the decision-making process was. I have heard in the past that they either give exclusive or preferential place in the montage to Academy members, so maybe that was it.
