The 98th Annual Academy Awards have come to an end, but I can't be the only one still feeling inspired.

From acclaimed filmmakers Paul Thomas Anderson and Ryan Coogler earning their first Oscars to Autumn Durald Arkapaw making history as the first woman to win Best Cinematography, the ceremony was full of milestones. 'One Battle After Another,' 'Sinners,' and 'Frankenstein' were the night's big winners.

Conan O'Brien was also a pretty fun host, especially with his recreations of films, including 'Weapons' and 'One Battle After Another' from beginning to end.

The program included famous reunions, musical performances, calls to world peace, and a memorial to honor the giants we lost this past year. Miles Caton and the 'Sinners' ensemble delivered a stunning performance, bringing ‘I Lied To You’ to life on stage. Grogu from 'The Mandalorian' even made an appearance with Kate Hudson. It was an interesting night.
