Given the events of last year’s memorable-for-the-wrong-reasons Academy Awards, everyone was likely either hoping for a buzzy reprise or (on the producers’ front) a quiet evening. As it happens, the show tended towards the latter.

And the viral, memorable moments are mostly going to be remembered for being on the positive side –– Michelle Yeoh’s historic Best Actress win, Ke Huy Quan and Brendan Fraser successfully completing their trophy tours on the biggest stage (with typically emotional responses and standing ovations) and ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ proving to be an awards powerhouse still.

Nominated for 11 Oscars, the indie sci-fi film might not have seemed to be potential Oscar bait; could a movie with dildo fights and hot dog fingers really win over stuffy voters? But win them over it did, taking home seven awards, including the aforementioned acting triumphs, Best Original Screenplay, Best Director and Best Picture. Its cast and crew were universally thrilled with their recognition and pulsed with joy.

Elsewhere, it was also a good night for ‘All Quiet on the Western Front’, the World War I movie wining a nice clutch of awards itself. And there were trophies for movies such as ‘Top Gun: Maverick’, ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’, ‘Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio’, and ‘RRR.'

The ceremony around those blips of happy success was more mundane, feeling like a safe overcorrection in the wake of Slap gate to ensure things ran smoothly. They did (the show actually finished early), but even with Jimmy Kimmel drawing from the book of Oscar Hosting 101 (he arrived on stage under a parachute having spoofed ‘Maverick’) it was all blandly factory produced.

Presenter banter was slight and cheesy (enlivened by Elizabeth Banks sharing the stage with an actor in a bear costume and Hugh Grant telling the audience he’s “basically a scrotum” in a gag about moisturizer use while standing next to ‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’ co-star Andie MacDowell), and things ran on rails. The musical performances ran the gamut from energetic (‘RRR’s “Naatu Naatu”, which would go on to claim the prize) to seeming more like they were set to be performed in a coffee shop (Lady Gaga’s muted, yet still effective “Hold my Hand” which ended with a sweet tribute to original ‘Top Gun’ director Tony Scott).

It might not have been the most memorable show, but some of the moments will linger longer than the sting of any slap.
