Spielberg's facial expression is the best thing that happened this entire night I swear to god

[desiv]

Did not expect that cut back to Spielberg... Nice! ;-)

[FunEGallerE]

“Oh, America, not you too.” Brilliant!

[MikeD-tfdk]

I DIED when it cut back to Spielberg 💀🤣😂

[manuelbello]

To this day. No dinosaur documentary was Oscar nominated

[allanpluger]

I really loved how this year they turned to elegant sort of "classy" non-offensive humor. The Spielberg bit is just insanely funny. It really raised back the prestige of the event to have this kind of humor back. Bravo!

[Pendekar-Yoko]

I demand kate for next oscar's host.

[thomasappelby]

I love Stephen Spielberg. His facial expression is hilarious.

I really loved the show this year. It was entertaining, the right people won and I loved the way the awards were presented :)

Kate McKinnon is a national treasure. We must protect her at all costs

[celinesantoyo]

NOT THE CUT TO SPIELBERG!! OMFG IM DEAD

[believer]

America Ferrera ❤

Her character Amy Sosa from Superstore inspired me in my job, I am fascinated by her and her work ever since... So glad she got her due with a movie like Barbie and a night like this one 🎉

Doctor Spielberg Sir, Is this true :D lol

[BFG-hvml]

Not gonna lie, this was funny as hell.

[arielturcios]

This segment was probably directed by Speilberg.... After I am Ken, the best thing yesterday

[astray]

I saw Animaniac cartoon on Spielberg's face expression... so gold.

[seangates]

This was an amazingly layered piece. "Oh America, not you too, " followed by the Dr. Spielberg mixup.

[Wulfman]

Listen lady! You call him Dr. Spielberg!

[michaelburgos]

Every time I see Spielberg’s face expressions, reminds when of some episode of Animaniacs back in the 90s . 😅

Now I’ve gotta try to find it ! 😂
