“The Shape of Water” is set in Baltimore, but most of Guillermo del Toro’s newly crowned Best Picture winner was filmed in Toronto. To celebrate that victory, our friends to the north decided to update the Welcome to Toronto sign with a postscript: “We Made That Fish Sex Movie!”
Among the Canadian craftsmen who worked on the film were production designers Paul Austerberry, Jeffrey A. Melvin, and Shane Vieau, who won an Academy Award for their efforts; “The Shape of Water” was also honored with Best Director for del Toro and Best Original Score for Alexandre Desplat.
The new motto appears to be Photoshopped and has likely not been sanctioned by Toronto officials, but that could change when they see how warmly received the update is.

The 90th Annual Academy Awards were held on Sunday night, March 4, hosted for the second year in a row by Jimmy Kimmel. The Emmy winning comedian and host of “Jimmy Kimmel Live” impressed with his hosting duties in 2017, but that ceremony is probably best remembered for its twist ending: “La La Land” was announced as the winner for Best Picture, but minutes later it was revealed that the wrong winner had been announced and that “Moonlight” was the rightful victor. Was the 2018 Best Picture outcome just as shocking? Scroll down for our live updating report and analysis of the winners as they happened.
“Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” was the front-runner for Best Picture going into Oscar night after winning top prizes at the Golden Globes, SAG Awards and BAFTAs. But close behind was “The Shape of Water,” the winner at the Producers Guild, Directors Guild and Critics’ Choice Awards.
