In a serious break from custom, the 2017 Oscars have been removed from boring.

Greatest

Since then, the pleasant rivalry (principally pleasant) turned a recurring bit on Jimmy Kimmel Reside! and eventually transcended the Oscar stage on Sunday night time.
The Hidden Figures forged welcomes Katherine Johnson
The lady whose real-life story is on the middle of Hidden Figures took the Oscar stage subsequent to the powerhouse trio of Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monáe. Johnson's story might have been hidden for many years, however now it is lastly seeing mild.

Worst
Jimmy Kimmel being lazy
Kimmel's opening monologue included a poor Moonlight intercourse joke and a really previous joke that sounded better from Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. He parachuted in sweet the best way that Ellen delivered pizza, he introduced in a bus filled with vacationers who could not care much less, and ABC shamelessly highlighted his present with a piece of "Mean Tweets." Sorry, Jimmy, however we deserve higher.
All of the Mel Gibson jokes
Hey Hollywood, we all know: Mel Gibson is problematic. You possibly can't un-nominate him by awkwardly acknowledging how bizarre it's at each obtainable alternative. In case you really feel bizarre about honoring the work of a recognized anti-Semite, do not honor the work of a recognized anti-Semite. Or an alleged sexual abuser, at that.
this entire present is like, "mel gibson is racist and everyone knows it and we'll snigger about it however invite him anyway" #Oscars
