Corey Feldman Reacts to Rob Reiner Oscars Snub

'Even if he wasn't on the stage, he'd love to be there, to honor Rob.' 

Both O'Connell and Wheaton allegedly reached out to the Academy 'for some answers' but were 'met with silence.' 

The pair felt that Feldman should have also been 'a part of the tribute' before the insider alleged that organizers were possibly 'looking to snub him out.'

Before the awards ceremony, the actor briefly talked about not being invited on his X account. 

'HI FOLLOWERS & SUPPORTERS, I JUST WANT 2 BRIEFLY MENTION THIS WHOLE OSCARS THING!' he began. 

'YES ITS TRUE THAT I WAS NOT INVITED, I UNDERSTAND MANY BELIEVE ITS DUE 2 BEING OUTSPOKEN ABOUT THE ABUSE I SUFFERED AS A CHILD & THE CAMPAIGN 2 SILENCE ME.'

Feldman made headlines back in December when he claimed he was .

In Corey Feldman vs. The World, Feldman alleged that Haim, who died aged 38 in 2010, sexually propositioned him while they filmed the 1987 vampire thriller The Lost Boys. They were both 16 years old at the time. 

'When we did Lost Boys, Corey said to me, "Hey man, let's mess around." And I said, "What do you mean?"' he said in the doc.

Feldman alleged that Haim told him: 'This is what, you know, what guys in the business do, right? You know, you suck each other's d**ks, or you f**k around - you do this stuff."

Feldman said Haim had then initiated sexual activity, claiming that he decided to oblige Haim in an effort to make the behavior stop.

'I called [Haim] and said, "Come over,"' Feldman said. 'But you know, when you have got somebody that's trying to come onto you sexually, and you don't want that, and you are a kid, and you are scared, you do whatever you can to stop it from happening.

'And that's what was happening. I was being molested by Corey Haim. Truth be told.'

Afterwards, his team released a letter to the Daily Mail and other media outlets clarifying: 'Mr. Feldman's statement that Mr. Haim "molested" him was in reference to Mr. Haim's advances, not physical molestation.'

They alleged that the claims were a 'sensationalized mischaracterization of the statements made in the film' and that Feldman 'did not reciprocate [Haim's] advances.' 

They further claimed that 'the producers of the film made the film without Mr. Feldman's knowledge and obtained the footage through dishonest means.'

To refute Feldman's claims, an attorney for the production team of the documentary released a statement to the Daily Mail.

The attorney stated that 'all footage used in this film was obtained lawfully and with Feldman's express written consent' and claiming that he 'repeatedly invited filming to take place.'
