Our 21 favourite funny Oscars reactions from Bluesky
The 97th Academy Awards – the Oscars – took place on Sunday night, with all the beautiful people out in force, strutting the red carpet in outfits that cost as much as your rent for a year.
A former host sent a good luck message to the current one.
Happy Oscars Sunday! #Oscars

Host Conan O’Brien got in a pretty good dig at Donald Trump, and it was a subtle one.
Conan: You know, Anora is having a good night. That's great news. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian.
Bluesky users had a lot to say about the proceedings, and these are a few of our favourites.

Ridiculous that in 97 years they’ve never given an Academy Award to the single most important person on every film: whoever takes the lens cap off

There should be a tribute to David Lynch, where they just show 60 seconds of a static shot of a steam filled underground corridor, with a flickering fluorescent light backed with ominous washing and a distant scream
