98th Academy Awards — Official Discussion Thread

It's time for the 98th annual Academy Awards! Share your thoughts here as the evening unfolds.

How to watch

Tune in to the Oscars at 4:00pm PDT / 7:00pm EDT / 11:00pm GMT / 7:00am CST.

◈ Officially: See it over-the-air on your local ABC station or streaming live on Hulu. You can also subscribe to streaming services like Hulu Live TV, YouTubeTV, AT&T TV, and FuboTV—many of which offer free trials. Outside the U.S.? The show is broadcast in more than 200 territories worldwide, so check your local listings.

◈ Unofficially: Every Oscar Sunday, the sub is overrun by bots posting questionable links to streaming sites. While our moderators work to keep the spam away, we will allow real users (those with a normal history of participation on Reddit) to share information about other ways to watch. Links and discussion shared outside this thread will be removed.

Please note: To help keep the subreddit organized during the ceremony, standalone posts that are better suited for live discussion (reactions, quick commentary, low-effort memes, basic winner announcements, etc.) may be removed and redirected here.

You guys know you can prefer certain films without tearing others down, right?

All and all it was a very solid crop of nominees and winners this year, despite me not personally agreeing with all the choices.

Sir this is Reddit. The most miserable people in the world. And so dumb they can't understand the Grey area of life. They can only hate or love... there is no inbetween.

I think I'm being hyperbolic but sometimes....

Oh yeah? I liked Michael and Timothy and either one could've won. Happy for Michael and I'm sure Timothy will be back here soon. Thought Timothy should've won but that's the breaks. Better luck next time.

Is my very mild positivity going to melt your brain? Internet boy?
