That's actually heartwarming to see Ke Huy Quan showing up, always energetic, always down to earth. Happy for his comeback. I hope he really get some jobs after this.

Ke Huy's joy is so infectious!I LOVED that Everything, Everywhere, All At Once allowed this adoreable man to showcase how multifaceted he can be! Extra thanks to the people responsible for bringing him back into acting. We've been denied a truly warm spirit all these years. Better late than never!

Ke Huy is such a cool guy. Super down to earth. You could tell with the special appearance, and the red carpet with Guillermo. So glad he won, much deserved!

I understand exactly how Ke Huy Quan must be feeling now. He must've thought his days in show business is over, but still looked up to it with hope, like a sport player would when they're sidelined due to a career-ending injury. So glad he not only got an opportunity to act in a movie, but that role bought him an Oscar is the icing on the cake.

I love that Ke Huy Quan's accent hasn't changed/faded at all since The Goonies and Indiana Jones. I can still hear the kid in his older voice. That's some quality nostalgia. 😄

[riddlechallenge]

Ke Huy Quan literally showed us that when you never give up in life, you will always have a second chance. As long as we are always ready when the opportunity shows up, we can do it! I love this guy and he deserve all the love in the world!!

[nicked_fenyx]

Ke Huy Quan is so fun to watch. He's just out there living his best life, making the most of it, and taking nothing for granted. Love that guy.

Ke Huy Quan is a gem ❤️ Hollywood better give this man great opportunities to shine!!! We need to see this kind man as often as possible.

I think the MVP from this year's Oscar is Ke Huy Quan. I swear that man is full of happy energy and somehow managed to steal the spotlight. He is literally everywhere and being so humble all the time

[tassymccormick]

I’ve never been happier for a person I’ve never met than I am for Ke Huy Quan. He’s impossible to dislike

[shawolsarah]

So refreshing to see a wholesome Hollywood actor like Ke Huy Quan

[bearin]

Guillermo is gold, inside and out. He just radiates his good vibes and it transfers through the screen.

[hanginthere]

Ke’s words to Guillermo warms my heart. He is so genuine. And that’s why I think every member of the academy is really rooting for him to win. So worth it ❤❤ I have to say watching Guillermo interviewed at the Oscar red carpet is the best thing of the Oscars, and it really should be a tradition ❤❤❤

[itsallGudmin]

That Guillermo and Ke moment at the end was the most wholesome thing my cold dead heart has seen in a time.. absolutely W men right there

[Flkser]

Brendan Fraser and Ke Huy Quan dissapeared for several years from the acting industry then suddenly make a comeback, gave some of the best performance of 2022 and won an Oscar is truly something that should be put in the history books. Cheers to their future, can't wait to see more good roles from them

[ajpisharodi]

My 2 favorite parts of the show were Ke Huys tearful victory, and Ke Huy and Harrison reuniting and embracing at the end. Those two moments overshadowed even the spectacular Natu Natu number which tore down the house! Overall, best Oscars I've seen in decades!

[peachesandpoets]

Melts me heart seeing someone so happy for the Oscar. Well deserved.

[Warinphat]

That little appreciation he had with guillermo at the end just shows what a sweet person he is🥹

[louiselaliberte]

Ke Huy Quan had me 😭😭😭 from the moment they called his name! I was a kid wnen Goonies and The Indiana Jones franchise came out and I was a huge fan. On and off screen, there is just something so endearing and likeable about him. So much so, that I can still remember how I felt watching his promo interviews on tv decades ago. I know I'm not alone in my standom either, because I've had many convos with many people over the years about how lovable he is and how disappointed we were that he seemed to have disappeared from the big screen after Encino Man. I know he worked behind the scenes and probably did have small on screen roles here and there, but we've missed him as a part of the main cast. I'm so happy for him and I hope that this is just the beginning of an amazing ascent in the industry for him.

[daydreamer]

I hope the universe keeps giving all the good things to Ke Huy Quan! That man is truly a down-to-earth, positive, inspirational human being. Congrats to him for his Oscar win and to the whole cast of Everything, Everywhere, All at Once!!
