Finally Leo has the trophy as well.

 

[Lacey]

Brie Larson was special, and Jacob Tremblay should have even more been nominated, for Best Supporting Actor (Oscar).

 

[Jimena]

I would've given it to him for The Departed.

 

[VGThuy]

I'm glad he won. Now I hope the fan girls can calm down about him not winning an Oscar.

 

[my little pony]

i am happy for stewie griffin though.

 

[VALuvsMKwan]

I'm glad he won. Now I hope the fan girls can calm down about him not winning an Oscar.

Thank Jeebus yes.

 

[Lacey]

I am surprised that many are standing for Leonardo. His part and his performance was ok, not special.

But his speech about saving the planet was fantabulous.

 

[jenny12]

Yay Leo! Love him for his environmental work!

Great speech from Leo as well!

 

[Allskate]

Leo's best performance was in What's Eating Gilbert Grape for which he was nominated in the supporting category. Hope he finally wins

Not "Growing Pains?" Hmm. No mention of that in his speech.

 

[Kasey]

Maybe DiCaprio will throw in to the Presidential race now....

 

[Meoima]

I'm glad he won. Now I hope the fan girls can calm down about him not winning an Oscar.

to be honest I secretly wish he hadn't win just for the meme....

 

[sweetsparky]

Finally!

The audience knew that everybody was expecting for this.

 

[Kasey]

SPOTLIGHT!!! Holy crap!!

 

[Deleted member 40371]

Wow, Spotlight won it. Bravo...

 

[VGThuy]

Btw, I appreciate the race consciousness but I could have done without the Asian pot shots tonight. Being "in" on the joke doesn't make it better.

 

[Matryeshka]

SPOTLIGHT! I wonder if they'll be talking about that one at work tomorrow...

 

[vesperholly]

Fabulous speech by Leo. Not his best performance (I pick The Departed too) but more a body of work win in a weakish field.

Holy crap Spotlight!

 

[Maofan7]

Well well - another shocker. Spotlight wins for best picture!

 

[IceAlisa]

I keep reading it as Mad Max Furry Road.

 

[Sylvia]

SPOTLIGHT

 

[my little pony]

i think spotlight was very well made. but like most oscar nominees and winners of recent years, i will never watch it again.

 

[Lacey]

Wow, Spotlight, good for the makers and actors of that movie. Yes, and for the reporters.

 

[Kasey]

I wonder if Morgan Freeman's pause before announcing Spotlight as the winner was a "Oh crap, don't do a Steve harvey" kind of moment

 

[sweetsparky]

It has been a year of good movies but not outstanding IMO.

 

[smurfy]

Best part. Morgan freeman n Michael Keaton taking gs cookies for Chris rock

 

[vesperholly]

Oh, I like this last bit with all the winners on the stage! And glitter!

What's with the Girl Scout cookie shilling??

Well they saved the biggest surprise for last. "Spotlight" won the SAG, and with the actor's branch being the biggest part of the Academy maybe this win wasn't the biggest upset, but it is a pleasant surprise.
