Jimmy Kimmel’s Oscars Monologue 2023

Jimmy's opening monologue from the 95th Academy Awards. #Oscars

The fact that Brendan Fraser was just tearing up being mentioned, being a nominee warms my heart. He totally deserved his win

[ChrisDavidsonDoobieWainwright]

If Matt Damon had stormed on stage and slapped Jimmy that would have been the best bit ever.😂

So happy Guillermo has a seat at the Oscars

I'm so glad Michelle and Brendan got their Oscars. Both very underrated people.

“Do what you did last year, nothing. Sit there and do absolutely nothing. Maybe even give the assailant a hug!” 😂😂

Damn how smooth and cool is Pedro Pascal?
I need a gif of that moment of his

3:29 I feel sorry for the people seated behind the veiled lady. 😭

I simply love how his opening is filled with great humour and nothing less of respect and homage to artists like Spielberg, Yeoh, Fraser and many more who deserve the spotlight for their excellent works!

[gunjan]

I really like how he pointed out that what happened last year was wrong and how the audience didnt react to it . he didnt shy away from saying what is right and did it in a classy way <3

I love the face of Andrew Garfield when Jimmy mentions him 🤣

[markcalvert]

A well-deserved shout-out to John Williams! Thank you, Jimmy and the writers for acknowledging this living legend and remembering his 53 nominations!

[maroselucas]

The dancing off the stage and pushing Jimmy, omg made me laugh so hard...still laughing...will repeat 10x damn this was a good one. 🤣💗

So glad that they brought back all 23 categories to be broadcast live. It was ridiculous to eliminate such important categories like cinematography, the very thing that makes movies as movies. Without cinematography, movies are plays or novels for chrissake. Finally everything is back to how it should be.

“We have nominees from every corner of Dublin.” This line always gets me 😂 among five Irish actors, four of whom are for the roles in The Banshees of Inisherin. Definitely worth watching ❤❤❤

[darthbiker]

That was just amazing. I love how happy Ke Huy Quan and Brendan Fraser are at just getting a mention, Brendan was literally in tears. I love how Jimmy called out last year's audience for their inaction after the slap - and not just the audience but the Committee in general for still giving Smith the award. I love how game everyone is especially Spielberg ("Oh you're here too, Sepp or Seb is it?, how long have you been there?"), the two Guillermos and Garfield. And the RRR bit when they played Jimmy off. And the absence of the Matt Damon prop gag.

Not the funniest but easily one of the best, most grounded opening speeches in recent years.

First time for Colin Farrell? I did not know, he is such great actor! And this latest Irish movie was fantastic!

[jaberjb]

Guillermo Moment was all worth it for me. He so much deserved it😊

[mmikels]

"And if any of you get mad at a joke and decided you wanna come up here and get jiggy with it... it's not gonna be easy." 😂😂😂

[jplowkey-qf]

I'm so happy Guillermo has a seat at the Oscars
