Maybe the Academy feels Sorkin zingers aren't enough to elevate a film. I personally liked Nomadland a great deal.

That song should've won the Oscar that year. Starship is the best.

This is also confusing...Zellweger giving Actress instead of Actor?

Did she just use her speech to plug her next movie?

Frances McDormand - watching Zhao's earlier speech and saying "I'll just do the opposite."

They're going to give it to Boseman and that's why it's last?

Edit: Nope.

Edit: Oh good, we ended the ceremony with a winner who wasn't there.


Worst. Oscars. Ever.

And that's why ... the most anti-climactic ending ever to the Oscars.

"The Academy accepts the award on his behalf" - hell of a way to end the show!

She quoted Macbeth and she's playing Lady Macbeth in her next film. Get it?

I guess they were really betting on Boseman winning with that move.

Her abrasiveness is just so odd. I kind of hoped she might say something about Scott Rudin, but who am I kidding.
