The Academy Awards finished their 93rd Annual Ceremony just a short time ago and while we didn’t watch as it happened, we now present the winners list for you in the rundown you will find below. I watched a short bit of it and it felt very sterile but that is what we are faced with nowadays since nothing is being done in the fashion that so many of us enjoy. There wasn’t an actual host this year and I’d have to say that there wasn’t any real debate about this based on the circumstances. Let’s take a look at the list shall we? I will return at the close with some additional opinion.
