If you watch Beatty now, knowing what happened, you can see him look at the card, then look at the envelope to see if there's another one. So I don't think he messed up at all, except for maybe not waving offstage to ask why his card said "EMMA STONE."

I was looking at the confused faces in the audiences and thinking - OK I'm not alone here.
Oh dear. Someone's head is gonna roll

Yeah, Beatty looked legitimately confused. Someone screwed up badly.
That was going to go down as one of the biggest Best Picture upsets ever, but now with the envelope confusion it is just plain weird and will be remembered that much longer.
Wowzers.
Wowzers.

I can understand that. He probably just saw La La Land on the card, and probably thought "well, yeah, of course it did."

No, he said in his explanation "I opened the card, I saw it say "Emma Stone, best actress, La La Land... and I was confused, I wasn't trying to be funny.." then instead of calling someone over to bring the right envelope, he hands it to Dunaway who thought he was kidding and she read it
