Jimmy Kimmel hosted the 2018 Oscars and opened with the monologue, “Some of you will be going home tonight with an Academy Award. This year, when you hear your name called. Don’t get up right away,” he joked.
“What happened last year was unfortunate,” Kimmel continued, explaining that last year, the Oscar producers wanted him to do a comedy bit with the Price Waterhouse accountants. “I said, ‘No, I don’t want to do comedy with the accountants.’ And then the accountants went and did comedy on their own.”
As for the accountants’ declaration that their focus this year will be solely on the envelope, Kimmel wondered, “What was your focus the other 89 years?”
“What happened with Harvey and what’s happening all over is long overdue,” Kimmel said, adding that Weinstein has been expelled from the Academy. “If we can work together to stop sexual harassment in the workplace, if we can do that, women will only have to deal with that every other place they go.”
“We will remember this year as the year men screwed up so badly, women started dating fish,” he joked with a nod to the plot of the Best Picture nominee The Shape of Water.

The Shape of Water – 4
Dunkirk – 3
