【Corruption (1983)】

They may have Corruption (1983)gone on for several sunlit days, but the 2018 Oscars had their distinct highs and lows like any year. As usual, we could cut some bloated bits, but we also found celebrity pairings and breakout stars that gave us life to last through the long night.

Here are the best and worst moments from the 90thAcademy Awards.

Best

Those presenter pairings

From Greta Gerwig and Laura Dern being adorable to Kumail Nanjiani and Lupita Nyong'o advocating for dreamers, to Gina Rodriguez and Tom Holland – this year's presenters came to crush it, and they did. Hey, ABC, any of these dynamic duos would make great hosts next year. Especially...

Maya Rudolph and Tiffany Haddish win just by existing

Some wanted them to host, some wanted them to do a movie, and some of us were content to sit with our eyes glued to ABC for an indefinite amount of hours if it meant this perfect pair would keep slaying with impeccable chemistry and comedic timing.

"This Is Me"

All the Best Original Song nominees brought the feels, but The Greatest Showman's submission has become an anthem since the film's November release. It was performed, as in the film, by Keala Settle, her voice halting to an emotional whisper before the final chorus. The song didn't win (Coco's "Remember Me" rightly did), but the performance will stay with us.

Frances McDormand shouts out her fellow female nominees

No matter how you feel about Three Billboards, McDormand's show of female solidarity ("inclusion rider") was beautiful and empowering.

Worst

All the montages

This is hard for me personally, as an avid fan of montages, but these carefully-crafted tributes to movies and audiences bloated the ceremony significantly, to the point where we were still waiting on the four major categories at 11:15 p.m. Literally help.

The Star Wars cast's jokes

Who wrote these jokes, if we stretch the definition of "joke" to its limits? Oscar Isaac, Mark Hamill, and Kelly Marie Tran are all insanely charming and basically pre-packaged viral content. Their bits were so thin they were essentially transparent and stifled the natural charisma they would have had even if unscripted. BB-8 deserved better, too.

Surprising those strangers

It can't have escaped Oscar producers that the infamous bus-full-of-tourists bit bombed at last year's ceremony, so it feels like a weird choice for them to have Kimmel and a dozen A-listers surprise people at the nearby Chinese Theater. I watch the Oscars for glamorous, talented celebs, not bums like me! To be fair, they were thrilled, and the bus tourists could not have given less of a fuck.
