Acceptance speeches at award shows can go so many different ways. If you're like Matthew McConaughey, you've already figured out the perfect formula. Then there are the speeches that are filled with tears and gratitude and that make you smile and cry along with the bewildered recipient. Or, you know, there are always those unsuspecting winners who end up giving a flustered and ultimately endearing speech. Luckily for us, 2014 has brought a very eclectic variety of moments, which is why we're rehashing our favorites below!
We're not the only ones who noticed, either. In fact, during the SAG Awards, Cate Blanchett had some choice words about the whole ordeal.
Not only did Cate Blanchett totally fondle her statue, but she took a jab at Matthew McConaughey when they tried to cut her short. "Twenty-nine seconds?! Matthew McConaughey spoke about Neptune. I think that I can have five seconds."
Mostly just this quote: "Thank you to my parents. I thank you and I simultaneously apologize to you about everything I did in this movie."

Arguably the best use of Anna Gunn's Breaking Bad clutch.
Even better, she had everyone on the floor with this amazing joke: "I'd like to thank George Clooney, for floating away and never coming back."
You know you've made it when Oprah gives you a standing ovation.
Because what else do you do when you win your first Golden Globe?
Also, be on the lookout for Matt Damon's reactions while you're watching.
"And number five be . . . number five . . . have knack . . . have a knack for memorizing."
This, after requesting a spotlight and dramatic music.
