An A-list army -- Taylor Lautner among the ranks -- turns out for agent Ari Emanuel's pre-Oscars hospitality

William Morris Endeavor talent agency topper Ari Emanuel kicked off his Oscar weekend Friday with a celebration for clients and friends -- including Taylor Lautner, Justin Timberlake, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg, Janet Jackson, Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz, Victoria Beckham, Renee Zellweger and Ryan Phillippe.

At Emanuel's Brentwood home, old pals (and Oscar winners) Affleck and Damon talked shop while their wives, Garner and Luciana Barroso, chatted up a storm.

Wahlberg greeted Lautner with a hug; the budding action star, clad in a black suit, stuck close to his WME agent, Thor Bradwell.
