I should start by noting that of all the nominees in all categories for this year, I've only seen "The Banshees of Inisherin", "Causeway", "Everything Everywhere All at Once", "The Fabelmans", "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Story", "Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio" and "Le pupille".
It was inevitable that this Oscars ceremony was going to reference last year's infamous slap. I also liked Jimmy Kimmel's dig at Scientology, and Elizabeth Banks's skit with the Cocaine Bear. One thing that I found weird was Morgan Freeman's shaved head; he looks better with hair.
Since I've only been watching the Oscars since 1995, I can't say which ceremony was considered the best ever, but I liked this one. Obviously it was impressive to see two winners of East Asian descent - one of whom was a refugee - but Daniel Scheinert made an important point (in an obvious swipe at anti-LGBT legislation) by noting that drag harms no one. Another good thing was that the anti-war "All Quiet on the Western Front" took home more awards than the militaristic "Top Gun: Maverick" (which I have no desire to ever see).
All in all, I liked it. To be certain, Malala Yousafzai responded perfectly to Kimmel's silly question.
