The 2022 Academy Awards are finally here, which means it’s time to celebrate movies, movie stars, movie directors, and movie editors (well… maybe that was a bad example). Granted, movies and movie stars and whatnot have been consistently celebrated for the last few months, like at the Gotham Awards and the SAG Awards, but this is the big show. The one that counts. The one that everyone’s going to be talking about tomorrow when they read up on the winners because they inevitably did not watch the show live.

Well, if you’re interested in reading up on the winners, here’s the place to do it. Here’s the full list of all the Oscar winners, including CODA for Best Picture, Jessica Chastain for Best Actress (for The Eyes Of Tammy Faye) and Will Smith for Best Actor (for King Richard). You’re kind of out of time, but if you’d like to catch up on any nominated films that you missed, you can use this list as a guide.

Also, as alluded to above, eight categories—Best Documentary Short, Best Film Editing, Best Makeup And Hairstyling, Best Original Score, Best Production Design, Best Animated Short, Best Live-Action Short, and Best Sound—were not supposed to be presented live and instead were given out before the show even started… And yet, they were still given out on the show, just in pre-taped segments that ended up saving approximately zero time.

Either way, they’re still on this list. We’ve got you, production designers, and we appreciate your work.

    It still kind of blows my mind we got a Dune film that ended up being a pretty great adaptation, did fantastic at the box office, and was nominated for (and is apparently winning) a bunch of Oscars.

    • iggypoops-av says:

      My 12-year old self still enjoyed David Lynch’s DUNE more than my 48-year old self enjoyed Denis Villenueve’s DUNE… which was pretty to look at, but just ended up feeling “ok.” Maybe Part2 will be something special. 

      • cavalish-av says:

        Watching the film at a formative age vs now is probably the major difference in quality, honestly.

        • iggypoops-av says:

          Oh, no doubt. But I was also disappointed that the new one was like a cover song where they hit all the notes but don’t capture the spirit of the “original” if you know what I mean. I missed Lynch’s batshit craziness and grotesquery… compare the portrayals of Baron Harkonnen – it was like Villenueve was *trying* to make him a grotesque and disturbing copy of Lynch’s Baron, but out-grossing Lynch (not in financial terms obviously) is a hard ask. Obviously the SFX was going to be better given the 35 years of advances, so that’s kind of beside the point. It just felt somewhat lacking in character, relying instead on “vastness”…

      • fragad-av says:

        I’m with you 100% — I enjoyed the ‘21 DUNE, but didn’t find it nearly as otherworldly and alien as Lynch’s DUNE. I saw it opening night in the theaters in ‘84, and it made me a superfan for life, as evidenced by the tattoo sleeve on my left leg…

      • Maxor127-av says:

        I agree. One thing that annoyed me about the new Dune was the constant “visions” were cheesy and overused. And the one thing I didn’t like compared to Lynch’s version was the music. From what I remember, the new version’s music was generic, vaguely Middle Eastern music.

      • dirtside-av says:

        I don’t think it’s ever a good idea to compare the emotional impact thing A had when you were 12 to thing B when you’re 48.

      • labbla-av says:

        Same, Lynch Dune just embraces the madness and absurdity of the concept. 

      • tmicks-av says:

        15 year old me thought the movie wouldn’t be over by now. I remember virtually nothing about it except that I thought it would never end. Haven’t watched anything Dune related ever since.

    • cura-te-ipsum-av says:

      Mad Max: Fury Road was a great action film that looked fantastic, got loads of critical acclaim including Academy Award wins (a well deserved Best Editing award among them) and nominations including Best Director and Best Picture.May have lost money on the theatrical release. I think I all but gave up at that point.

      • drdny-av says:

        Hollywood accounting, Cura Te Ipsum — it makes you wonder if any film has ever been profitable.
        Given Mad Max: Fury Road grossed close to 2-1/2x the production budget, I suspect any “loss” was more than made up for in ancillary rights.

      • nilus-av says:

        I think it broke even at the box office but didn’t blow away and records. It had a real chance at winning best picture too. That year had a lot of strong contenders but no break out leader.   In my mind Spotlight, The Revenant and it are all on the same level movie wise.  Mad mad is just amazing because that sorta genre picture rarely gets to be as good as it was 

    • jonesj5-av says:

      I knew Dune saying would win best score. I stayed to the end of the credits just for the score. No surprise that it won multiple technical Oscars as well. It was extremely well made.

  • John--W-av says:

    Congratulations Ariana! Puerto Rico!

  • it-has-a-super-flavor--it-is-super-calming-av says:

    Hans Zimmer’s Dune score had some interesting moments, but it’s a shame Anne Dudley’s Benedetta wasn’t even nominated.
    I mean, I wish the soundtrack to Belle had won, but that’s probably just me.

    • actionactioncut-av says:

      I’m still mad about Spencer’s score not getting a nom (also for cinematography!).

    • jonesj5-av says:

      IDK. I thought the Dune score was brilliant. I stayed to the end of the credits just to hear the entire score. That said, I realize there is some subjectivity in how much one likes a score.

      • it-has-a-super-flavor--it-is-super-calming-av says:

        Human perception of sound is one of the most subjective things I can think of.
        Music doubly so.

  • actionactioncut-av says:

    I was holding out hope (and $5 on a betting app) for a stunning long shot Raya and the Last Dragon upset for Animated Feature, but alas!

  • weedlord420-av says:

    I have literally never been less surprised than hearing Encanto won Best Animated

    • syafiqjabar-av says:

      Should have been The Mitchells!

      • cavalish-av says:

        Encanto and Mitchell’s were both movies about dealing with a Narcissist as the head of the family. I give Encanto points for figuring that out.

    • yttruim-av says:

      Not surprising at all. Thee vastly superior Flee was right there, but i at least hope more people are going to watch it as a result.

    • maulkeating-av says:

      There’s a quote from a few years back from Jack Black:“Every year I do a Dreamworks film, and then I bet that paycheque on the Disney film winning the Best Animated Feature.”

    • mikepencenonethericher-av says:

      I found Encanto and its songs perfectly adequate but it was a much bigger deal because of the story and themes resonating a lot with Hispanic / Latino/x culture. But yea as a whole it was fine. 

      • richardalinnii-av says:

        Me and my 8 year old kids are whiter than a blizzard in Alaska they absolutely went ape shit happy over hearing Encanto won, so it doesn’t just resonate with Latinx cultures.

        • mikepencenonethericher-av says:

          Oh I know that, I know plenty of families that loved it that are not Latinx / Hispanic, but I think that was just adding to the phenomenon. 

          • richardalinnii-av says:

            I was responding to this in your comment “but it was a much bigger deal because of the story and themes resonating a lot with Hispanic / Latino/x culture.” . Those themes and the story don’t mean anything little kids. If it were American/Canadians/Italians/Australian or whatever the fuck, my kids still would have liked it.

          • mikepencenonethericher-av says:

            Ok cool. You seem a bit pressed though.

          • richardalinnii-av says:

            Not sure how you jumped to that conclusion. Just stating my opinion based on experience.

        • cosmicghostrider-av says:

          So what you’re telling me is that we’re allowed to like films where we dont identify with the protagonist in a physical representation way? Get out of town.

          • cosmicghostrider-av says:

            It’s almost as if we’re similar to other races in almost everything except the minutia of our appearance and cultures. That’s craaaazy mind blown. 

  • killa-k-av says:

    I busted out laughing when they revealed Zack Snyder’s Justice League won the Movie Moment Twitter BS thing.

  • bagman818-av says:

    I don’t get the professional athletes presenting. I guess they’re trying whatever they can think of to shore up ratings?

    • Robdarudedude-av says:

      The Williams Sisters were why King Richard was made in the first place. In terms of source material, that is.

  • syafiqjabar-av says:

    Villeneuve will get his directing award some day. Not today, but some day.

    • thefilthywhore-av says:

      “In a confusing display of take-backsies, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences have rescinded the Oscar for Best Director and awarded it to Denis Villeneuve mere minutes after the ceremony concluded. Denis was previously not nominated in this category.”

    • drdny-av says:

      “Some Day” likely being the 2023 Oscars, for the year Dune, Part Deux gets released.

  • rogue-jyn-tonic-av says:

    Good or bad, with all the elements Don’t Look Up had to juggle, it really should have been a no-brainer for best editing.

  • maulkeating-av says:

    Congratulations to the makeup team for The Eyes Of Tammy Faye:

  • surprise-surprise-av says:

    Are they using awkward editing techniques to make it look like the attendees are reacting to pre-recorded acceptance speeches by the winners in the technical categories?

    Also, that The Last Duel joke was brutal.

  • yttruim-av says:

    I love the smaller stage and seating area, i would welcome this as a permanent change. Hosts are doing okay so farAll these “oscar moments” are just AHAHAHAHAHH. That someone would even think more people would watch the Oscars because of them, is funny, in the sad kind of way. How much money did Apple pay people for the, it exists and is forgettable, movie of the week CODA, to be winning some of these awards. It is the distracted boyfriend meme with Netflix going “wtf” and Apple just walking by without doing any of the work and the Academy unable to look away. I dont know who edited all the Best Picture montages, but wow, they are just atrocious.The song performance of “we don’t talk about Bruno” just reiterates how bad of a song it is. OMFG! Will – Chris WTF!!!!!

    • glo106-av says:

      Glad I’m not the only one who wondered how much iphone profits went into “campaigning” for CODA to win things. 

    • omegaunlimited2-av says:

      I finally watched “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” on YouTube and was thoroughly underwhelmed. I don’t get the hype.

  • Robdarudedude-av says:

    Well…that was awkward… but even more awkward if Will Smith wins.🤨

  • bloggymcblogblog-av says:

    Damn! Will Smith slapped Chris Rock!

  • cogentcomment-av says:

    I’m watching an international stream that’s uncensored and the Will Smith-Chris Rock part was definitely unscripted.For those who didn’t get to see it when the US version cut it, Rock made a joke about Jada being ready for GI Jane 2, which I didn’t connect to her shaved head – but Jada immediately did and gave him a look of pure hate and clearly Smith did too. Smith goes up and slaps Rock, which I thought briefly was staged based on the sound and the angle of the camera.Then Rock says something else, and the camera goes back to Smith and he screams at him, twice I think: “Get my wife’s name out of your FUCKING mouth.” I’m not at all surprised they cut the US feed even if the camera was going, and that’s when I was like…woah, this ain’t fake at all.Either both are a lot better actors than I think or that was just wild. Smith was smart to laugh the peace joke after commercial break, since those who didn’t see him before are going to have to search hard for it; the Oscars take down everything on of their show on Youtube so it’ll be a hassle. (Edit: never mind, the Japanese TV one is already up on Twitter thanks to Timothy Burke. Go watch.)But wow.

    • Robdarudedude-av says:

      Jada has stated she has alopecia  hence the shaved head I guess to hide uneven growth. Will laughed at first, but when he saw Jada react badly he kinda lost it.  

    • it-has-a-super-flavor--it-is-super-calming-av says:

      Looked real to me.
      Apparently Jada has a hair loss condition that she’s open about, but yeah, probably isn’t something that should be joked about.
      And after this I doubt it ever will be again.

      • martyfunkhouser1-av says:

        If she’s open about it she oughta be able to take a joke about it. It’s a better way to cope than being thin-skinned about it. 

        • it-has-a-super-flavor--it-is-super-calming-av says:

          Just because you can talk about your condition publicly doesn’t mean you want jokes to be made about it at your expense. And Jada has a right to react however she wants. She’s certainly not at fault here. Chris Rock said his shit about her apparently unsolicited, and now she has to deal with it. Let’s not blame or shame the victim.

          • gonalddoofy-av says:

            Granted that the joke was unfunny and in bad taste, but JADA was the victim here?? Chris Rock got SLAPPED in the face on live TV! He is allowed to make jokes, that’s the name of the game at these shows, and clearly it was okay’d by the academy if he said it. Rock is the victim, Will Smith is an emotionally unstable man-child, just listen to his extremely uncomfortable, blabbering acceptance speech where he excuses his actions by explaining how men must “protect” what he clearly sees as their female possessions. Give me a fucking break. Violence (especially by someone considered by many to be a role model) is unacceptable in pretty much any situation, but this is just egregious. Can’t believe people are seemingly okay with someone being publicly and physically punished for exerting his right to free speech. He’s a COMEDIAN, I mean come on

          • cosmicghostrider-av says:

            It’s sorta like how the death of Snyder’s daughter / him stepping down from directing Justice League was public but you don’t see anyone making jokes about it.

        • geralyn-av says:

          No she doesn’t have to take an internationally televised joke about a condition that very obviously causes her distress. But good on you for condoning what in another situation would be bullying.

          • martyfunkhouser1-av says:

            That’s not what I’m doing. I’m suggesting she should – and hopefully will – someday accept her condition with positivity. She’ll feel a whole lot better laughing about it and not letting it define her than being sensitive about it (which is also valid, but unhealthy). She can be a great advocate for alopecia among women, but she’s going to have to work through her feelings about it first.

          • geralyn-av says:
      • kirkcorn-av says:

        I’m confused, hair loss (in its many forms) that is experienced by… 80% of men and half of women? Pretty much every bald/hair thinning person I know of gets dunked on round the clock (including myself). It sucks, but somehow everyone but Jada’s supposed to take it? Granted Jada’s condition is perhaps a magnitude more severe than most women and obviously women being bald hasn’t been normalized by any means near what men have. But still, I mean, GI Jane is a pretty benign comparison.

        • typingbob-av says:

          What would Larry David do?

        • it-has-a-super-flavor--it-is-super-calming-av says:

          Rationalising the joke doesn’t matter.
          Jada is allowed to not like a joke made about her.

        • nilus-av says:

          Part of it was emotions were high with Will. Part of it is that Chris Rock has used her as a punchline a lot. A bit of it may be that they already made a crack about their open marriage earlier. And part of it is the fact that black woman have to deal with a lot of shit around their hair and what they do with it. Rock knows this, he made a documentary about it. That being said,  the joke was most likely not writing by him anyways and was just what the teleprompter said to say.  

    • well-lighted-av says:

      I don’t think the moment was scripted, but you have to wonder if it was encouraged. I mean, presenters don’t just get to go up and riff at the Oscars. Even someone like Rock would have their presentation pre-scripted and rehearsed. So this joke went through the writing and editing process, at least one rehearsal, and was plugged into the teleprompter, and no one thought it was maybe going too far? I don’t believe it. 

    • robgrizzly-av says:

      The reason I believe it’s real is because of reports about Denzel pulling Will Smith aside. Washington does not strike me as the type who would be “in” on some level of elaborate ratings ploy

  • uselessbeauty1987-av says:

    I’m delighted Ken Branagh won. Belfast was a lovely movie.His speech acknowledging the people who had died on the way to making the movie (including his agent’s daughter) was classy.

  • MisterSterling-av says:

    Rock is going to press charges, isn’t he? Please.

  • derptracy-av says:
  • martyfunkhouser1-av says:

    The H U G E gap in quality between best animated picture and best picture needs to start closing. Encato? It was good; standard Disney fare of late.But best animated picture good? Maybe the best of what was was nominated, but that’s not the same thing.Animated films need to step it up if Encato is best out there.

    • synonymous2anonymous-av says:

      I was really mesmerized by the first 15 minutes of Encanto…and then it just fell off of a cliff. Woof.

    • maulkeating-av says:

      Best Animated Feature judging works thusly:Some crusty old Academy member glances over the list, sees the word “DISNEY”, remembers that their great-grandkid has has been crapping on about whatever Disney film came out this year, and votes for it.

    • cosmicghostrider-av says:

      There’s this amazing film called Turning Red. Have you seen it yet? Probably going to win Best Animated next year.

  • syafiqjabar-av says:

    LOL. Someone told me ZSJL did not deserve that Cheer Moment fan vote because it did not get released in theaters. Now an Apple TV+ movie won Best Picture.

  • bc222-av says:

    Coda wins, Troy Kotsur wins… and Will Smith still made the biggest statement with his hands.

    • drdny-av says:

      Given the statement was, “Don’t you fucking mock my wife, you misogynist PoS!”, bc222?I’ll allow it….or as everybody forgotten that every other word out of Chris Rock’s mouth used to be “Bitch”?

  • zwing-av says:

    Perhaps the Academy has a real problem when the most memorable Oscar moments of the last decade are a misread Best Picture and a movie star hitting a comedian.

  • robgrizzly-av says:

    I felt strongest about Andrew Garfield performance in Tick, tick… Boom, so that disappointed me. However, I doubt he would have had the acceptance speech Will did. I also was really rooting for Kirsten Dunst in The Power of the Dog. I still think the movie should have been about her character instead. Everything else went as predicted, which can be a good thing when the movies deserve it, but often just feel like the voters are on autopilot, just following what everyone else has been picking. I still want some sort of rule making sure they are watching every movie before they cast their ballots.
