Ceremony information
Despite the mixed reception received from the preceding year's ceremony, the Academy
rehired Michael De Luca and Jennifer Todd as producers for the second consecutive year.[56]
In May 2017, it was announced that Jimmy Kimmel would return as host for a second
consecutive year.[57] Kimmel expressed that he was thrilled to be selected to MC the gala
again, commenting, "Hosting the Oscars was a highlight of my career and I am grateful to
Cheryl [Boone Isaacs], Dawn [Hudson], and the Academy for asking me to return to work
with two of my favorite people, Mike De Luca and Jennifer Todd. If you think we screwed up
the ending this year, wait until you see what we have planned for the 90th anniversary
show!"[58] Jimmy extensively campaigned for the ceremony, shooting several promos and
discussions on his talk show.
On December 4, 2017, it was announced that the timing of the ceremony and its pre-show had
been changed and both would be scheduled to broadcast a half-hour earlier than prior Jimmy Kimmel hosted the
telecasts.[59][60] In the first half of the nominations announcement, pre-taped category 90th Academy Awards
introductions were included that featured actresses Priyanka Chopra, Rosario Dawson, Gal
Gadot, Salma Hayek, Michelle Rodriguez, Zoe Saldana, Molly Shannon, Rebel Wilson and
Michelle Yeoh.[61][62]
As per the tradition of the Academy, the previous year's Best Actor winner usually presents the Best Actress award for the next year's
ceremony; in lieu of this, last year's Best Actor winner Casey Affleck reportedly decided not to attend the ceremony due to his sexual
harassment allegations;[63][64] Jodie Foster and Jennifer Lawrence presented the award together in his place.[65] The Best Actor
award was presented by Jane Fonda and Helen Mirren.[66] Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway returned to present the Best Picture
Award for the second year in the row, after last year's announcement error.[67][68] Sixth-year in a row Derek McLane designed the
stage with forty-five millionSwarovski crystals.[69][70]
Thirty-six nominations went to 15 films on the list of the top 50 grossing movies of the year. Of those 15 films, only Coco (12th),
Logan (15th) Dunkirk (16th), Get Out (18th), The Boss Baby (19th), and Ferdinand (35th) were nominated for Best Picture, Best
Animated Feature or any of the directing, acting or screenwriting awards. The other top 50 box-office hits that earned nominations
were Star Wars: The Last Jedi (1st), Beauty and the Beast (2nd), Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (8th), Kong: Skull Island (17th), War
for the Planet of the Apes(20th), Wonder (33rd), The Greatest Showman (29th), Baby Driver (36th), and Blade Runner 2049 (41st).
Others were more critical of the show. Television critic Maureen Ryan of Variety said, "All things considered, the show had a more or
less low-key vibe. Normally it takes about two hours for the numbing effect to set in, but despite host Jimmy Kimmel's best efforts,
Sunday's telecast started to feel a bit languid and low-energy far earlier."[84] Television critic James Poniewozik of The New York
Times said, "despite the recent upheaval in Hollywood, the ceremony at large still focused mainly on celebration and glitter literally,
in the case of the blinding set, which looked as if the ceremony were encased in an enormous geode. There's also the perennial
problem of bloat. The hitch, of course, is that every part of the show has its constituency."[85] Darren Franich of Entertainment
Weekly wrote, "What fun we had at this year's Oscars! Long show, sure, but where to cut it?"[86] Writing for Deadline Greg Evans
said, "Did the nearly four-hour running time contain any moments for the Oscar ages? Probably not."[87] David Wiegand of the San
Francisco Chronicle wrote, "Even the hope that the noise of clapping might keep the audience at home and in the theater awake,
there was little of that for anything except the entrance of actors of advance age."[88] The Oregonian columnist Kristi Turnquist
eah, kind of."[89]
wrote, "Was it respectful? Absolutely. Did it make for kind of a dull, earnest Oscars show? Y
In Memoriam
The annual In Memoriam segment was introduced by Jennifer Garner with Eddie Vedder performing a rendition of the Tom Petty's
song "Room at the Top".[97] The segment paid tribute to following forty-four artists in the montage:
[98]
On the Academy's website there is a gallery focusing on several other artists who were not included in the segment.
