18. Al Gore isn't listed as a producer, so he likely won't go up.
But he is a big part of the documentary, so he's absolutely entitled to be there.

24. Yes he was and he just won! He was not the only one up there. The
director took the Oscar but he said that it was Al who was behind the who thing and he said that Al has been working to save the planet for 30 years. I loved it.
