Takeaways
- The Oscars were predictable in terms of winners, but there were still some surprises.
- Memorable acceptance speeches included those by Emma Stone, Christopher Nolan, and the winner of Best Supporting Actor.
- Access to short films and documentaries should be improved to allow more people to experience and appreciate them.
- Bird law, a reference to It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, is not a real legal concept. Ryan Gosling's Oscars performance was highly praised and considered one of the best in the history of the awards show.
- Bradley Cooper has been consistently nominated for Oscars but has yet to win, leading to speculation and disappointment among fans.
- The release date of a film, such as Dune, can have an impact on its chances of winning Oscars.
- Pauly Shore and Tom Green movies are generally considered to be of low quality and are not well-regarded by the hosts.
