The following list of Oscar winners and nominees at the 90th Academy Awards ceremony in 2018 is presented here in the same order it appeared on CNN’s website. I have completed it where I could. They haven’t respected the original order. Doesn’t matter, it seems my Oscar predictions from yesterday were only partially right, but better than in other years. I enjoyed The Shape of Water enormously, but I liked Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, more. Winners are specified and written in bold characters.

That’s the list, folks. I have missed only twice: the Original Screenplay and unfortunately, the Best Picture. Anyway, in my opinion, professional critics’ predictions about the winner were based all on the wrong reasons. The Shape of Water apparently contained the correct elements: women, one black, one disabled, the amphibian, the white bad guy who is cruel with the amphibian and sexually harass the disabled woman, plus it was made by an immigrant…
