The Academy Awards were last night, and the awards show was less of a failure than usual; it was more entertaining than usual.
Sure, it was still roughly nine hours long, but it had its moments.
First, “Oppenheimer” did really well. The film walked away with Best Picture, Christopher Nolan properly won best director, Cillian Murphy came away with Best Actor, and Robert Downey Jr. walked away with Best Supporting Actor.
My second main concern was seeing the film “Barbie” fail. I got my wish. It did not do well. It won one award, Best Original Song, which is the only Oscar that “Barbie” should have been up for in the first place.
The highlight of the Oscars award evening was John Mulaney, who was genuinely funny. He should definitely host the Oscars next year.
With all that said, the Oscars show is still a trash fire filled with trash human beings.
That is the message for today….
