Best Win
Olivia Colman, who is now my favourite Oscar win since Marisa Tomei.
HM: I guess cinematography for Roma. So many bad wins made it hard to choose anything but this.
Worst Win
Bohemian Rhapsody for Editing
HM: Green Book for Best Picture. I will say again that I did enjoy the film on a basic level (lets face it, that was its main level), but damn if it isn't a shamefully lazy choice.
Best Moment
Melissa McCarthy and Brian Tyree Henry presenting Costume Design.
HM: The speech from the Period. End Of Sentence. winners.
Worst Moment
The Queen opening number. I love Queen, and I mean I really love them, but that was weirdly pointless and not particularly good.
HM: The Best Song performances.

Best wins: Roma, Into the Spider-Verse, First Man, Black Panther and Olivia Colman (such a pleasant surprise)
Worst wins: Bohemian Rhapsody for anything apart from Best Actor, especially Best Editing (worst winner in anything of the decade for me).
Best moment: Samuel L. Jackson announcing Spike Lee as the winner for Adapted Screenplay, Olivia Colman and the Bao ladies' acceptance speeches, Alfonso Cuaron and Guillermo del Toro walking away from the stage like a bunch of drunk best friends
Worst moment: I thankfully didn't witness Bohemian Rhapsody winning Best Editing, so I guess Green Book winning Original Screenplay.
Edit: And oh yes, John Bailey presenting. How can I forget that?

I'll only be able to watch the ceremony itself in about two weeks but as far as the wins go:
BEST WIN:
Easily Olivia Colman. My jaw dropped to the floor when I saw her on the winners list this morning - I thought Close was easily getting this career win.
H/M: Black Panther for Costume Design (Ruth Carter!). And also I love that Spike Lee is officially an Academy Award winner.
WORST WIN:
Hmm...Yeah, I guess Bohemian Rhapsody for Editing. But I'm not a fan of its Sound Editing win either - it's kind of a groundbreaker in that it's (correct me if I'm wrong) the first time a movie about a musician won this category (they never even get nominated here), but the work itself wasn't really that interesting aside from the fact that they combined a couple of voices to create the Mercury singing sound. It's obvious that the Academy members were just blindly voting for this movie when they saw the word 'Sound' on their ballot.

Best Win : Roma foreign pic fighting off Cold War another great but lesser film - that was actually a great "race" even if it wasn't close on paper.
Worst Win: Bohemian Rhapsody for Editing
Best Moment : Weird things to me like Rossomando getting an Oscar, Chabrol getting a mention, Irishman teaser..........I'm weird. I liked looking at the great artists in the death segment and reflecting back on them and their work - Finney, Milos, Bertolucci, Bregman, Muller, Audran for me but also fond memories of Reynolds too.
Worst Moment : Worst moment is screenplay every year nowadays - those nominees were mostly childish, those winners were either muddled or formulaic.

The best moment was Olivia Colman.
Were there other moments? Because for me, the Oscars was just that speech on loop for three hours.

bEST WIN cOLMAN, BUT POOR GLENN CLOSE
BEST MOMENT MCCARTHY BUNNY DRESS
Worst Win. Well I hadn't seen most of the nominees, so I can't argue. Until I've seen Green Book and BR
Worst Moment. The In Memoriam, too many omissions including Dorothy Malone again!!!
Worst Speech. The girl from Black Panther, I think was art direction, I think she was possesed by Green Carson's spirit.-

Best - Colman, deserving win (and I was the only one in my betting group who picked her  ) and great speech. Worst - The overwhelming love for the two utterly abysmal looking films I couldn't even bring myself to watch, Bohemian Rhapsody and Green Book. Seeing the latter defeat First Reformed for best writing felt like I was witnessing a hate crime. |

Best:
- Colman obviously
- Spike!
- Cuarón (predictable but 100% deserved)
Worst:
- Green Book beating The Favourite for screenplay is maybe the second worst win of the decade after Director in 2010.
- Green Book for Best Picture of course
- Bohemian for everything

Best:
Green Book
Colman
First Man for visual effects
Black Panther love
Worst:

Those were the only two that I was actively displeased with. There were other categories were my preferred nom didn’t win (supporting actress) but I wasn’t actively upset with the actual winner or anything.

Best Win
Olivia Colman, the best of the nominees and extra points for taking it from Close. Her speech was a tour-de-force of its own.
HM: First Man for SFX.
Worst Win
Green Book for Best Picture.
HM: Rami Malek, as well as Bohemian Rhapsody for editing. One of the worst edited films I've seen.
Basically, everything Green Book and Bohemian Rhapsody won is abysmal. Vice is even worse but at least it kind of deserved its win.
Best Moment
Melissa McCarthy and Brian Tyree Henry being absolute legends.
HM: I've always hated Barbra Streisand but really liked her presenting BlacKkKlansman.
Worst Moment
The speech from Vice's Make-up win. Worst I've ever seen. I felt rage.
HM: John Bailey not getting tomatoes thrown at him.

Best Win
Olivia Colman, not my favorite (no pun intended) but preferred her over Close and it was a pleasant surprise
HM: Lady Gaga's "Shallow" win
Worst Win
Green Book for Best Picture. I am not a hater and its by far not a bad film.. but it is really not a film that deserves BP in my books.
HM: Regina King... I like her and she is a sweet person I guess and gave a great speech - however everybody else in her category was more deserving.
Best Moment
Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper performing "Shallow"
HM: Best Costume Design presentation
Worst Moment
The acceptance speech of the "Best Make Up" winners - now that was cringeworthy.
HM: The general flow - it felt too rush and anticlimactic at times

The Best Moment - NO HOST.

Best:
Shocking Colman upset, no host, Regina King, Spike Lee's win / speech
Worst:
Pretty much everything else sans the wins for Ali and Cuaron which were fine but also boring because everyone knew they were coming. The thing about last night is that two thirds of the wins were predictable (including Malek and editing for that shit Bryan Singer movie) and the surprises for the most part were awful. Bohemian Rhapsody for both sound categories, Green Book for BP and screenplay, Black Panther for score and production design (costumes I understand because the film's costumes were its most striking and appealing element but there was nothing extraordinary about its set design). I wasn't predicting those and god did they hurt.
Best moment:
Oliva Colman's speech. Only moment of the evening that was truly wonderful, though King and Lee were pretty great too.
Worst moment:
the part where Peter Farrelly won two Oscars and Bohemian Rhapsody won four.

Best: Queen Anne winning, Black Panther's surprise wins, particularly score.
Worst: Bohemian Rhapsody for just about everything, outside of performance. Not deserved, especially editing. The awkward attempts at not-name dropping Singer did get some chuckles out of me, though.

Best: Picture. Actor. Editing. Worst: Actress. Cinematography. Animated Feature. I genuinely think you've gone too far into the joke, man. You're now Colonel Kurtz, sitting at the end of the river, mumbling Queen lyrics in a bad Marlon Brando accent. |

Best Win
Green Book, OS
HM: First Man
Worst Win
BlackKklansman, AS
HM: Bohemian Rhapsody for Sound. Is it time we combine these two categories? Laziness has prevailed the last couple of years.
Best Moment
Spike Lee being refused to leave. He's aged into a right ol' prick.
HM: Surprise/shock winners: Green Book x2; Colman; Black Panther; Bohemian Rhapsody. Good or bad, a little unpredictability adds to the show.
Worst Moment
Peter Farrelly's continued self-masturbatory behaviour. Ridley Scott pulled the same thing at the Globes, and he too failed to get nominated for director.
HM: The remnants of Queen. Why are we celebrating these superficial-listening, run-of-the mill fuckers? There's hundreds of more deserving bands, nay, thousands.

Ok so far I've legit only seen a clip of Colman's speech and the Vice make-up winners so those respectively get my best and worst because I did not think Colman could win me over in 3 minutes, but she did. And I also did not think I could be so blown away by incompetence in under 3 minutes but that too did happen.

) and great speech.
