Interesting, thanks Bozo— I've yet to see any  (hopefully soon).
I think the two big shocks tonight will be Chalamet for Actor and Eisenberg for writing, but, being said, there's still a solid 5-6 major categories that don't have a clear outcome. It'll be fun.

There are many things to be said but I'll start by saying 'thank you' to the Academy for scrapping the song performances. That was always the worst part of the show, and the last thing I wanted was to hear anything from Emilia Perez performed live. And kudos to Conan for being a good host.

I disagree about that always being the worst part, however I'll agree that the songs were incredibly weak this year and it was a good call to cut the live performances. Clément Ducol and Camille really had to get a few notes in though during their speech, ugh.
Other than that and Brody's speech, I thought it was a solid ceremony, better than others in recent years despite the film slate being weaker.

I thought it was fine. Not great, but yeah. Happy Anora swept. Would've never happened 10 years ago. It's my favourite film of the year, and my favourite BP winner since Parasite. Having Baker go from Slamdance to Cannes to cleaning out the Oscars is such a ride. I was finally able to watch Take Out recently (one of his lower budget early works, and probably the best film I've ever seen within that budget range)— it's a fantastic legit indie/DIY film. Easy rec if you haven't seen it. Empty-pocket grit slurped from Styrofoam.
Shoulder-to-shoulder with Disney now for most wins in a single night. Dude did it.
And yeah, I know people are complaining about Brody's speech, but Ducol & Camille was leagues cringier. Mikey and Kieren's were great.
