The 90th annual Academy Awards show took place last night, and there were definitely some exciting twists that most people did not see coming. In fact, some of the winners of the 2018 Oscars’ most coveted awards didn’t even see it coming.

Among the many, many, many awards shows that take place every year, the Oscars is probably the only one that people really care about. We mean really care about. Tens of millions of viewers tune in each year to see which pictures take home the top prizes, and to see which actors and actresses grab top honors. At this year’s 90th Academy Awards, most of the big Oscars went to the favorites.

Frances McDormand was awarded the best actress Oscar for her role in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, marking the second time she has taken home the Oscar for best lead actress. Meanwhile Gary Oldman took home the Oscar for best actor for his work in Darkest Hour. The Shape of Water won best picture, as expected, and Guillermo del Toro also won the Academy Award for best director. The biggest surprise of the night was probably when Jordan Peele won the Oscar for best original screenplay after rumors that Get Out would be snubbed. His tweet said it all: “I just won an Oscar. WTF?!?”
