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

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

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!” 😂😂

“Do what you did last year, nothing” 😂😂😂

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!

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

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

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

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. 🤣💗

One of the best Oscar monologues ever. Love the John Williams shoutout. Listened to him since I discovered his soundtracks as a kid. And love Andrew Garfield’s face when Jimmy said Spider-man 😂 wrong one!

"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." 😂😂😂

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

Jimmy’s monologue was absolutely a home run!! I’m so glad he was able to acknowledge all the talent this year without bringing up politics and division!! He made it funny, sweet and memorable!! This is definitely one for the Oscars History Records!! Well done Jimmy !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤❤❤

2:55 He was tearing up!! Such a genuine reaction..it indeed is an honor to even be nominated...such a deserved win!

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

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

What a difference ONE year makes! From the absolute crass, classless Will Smith train wreck to what will be one of the best comeback story of once blackballed and forgotten actor Brendan Fraser as Oscar winner for best actor. Jimmy’s Opening monologue captured the energetic upbeat vibe.

Its been a while since I felt this happy watching a video!!! Jimmy saying Top Gun Maverick was the best was emotional, every frame had 2-3 people I know but after Jimmy saying creed and beautiful Michelle yeoh, The Mandalorian Pedro Pascal AND OFCOURSE Spider-Man Andrew Garfield will be protecting him, broke into absolute hysteric applause!!! I loved this soo much!!!!! Well done Jimmy at the Oscars! 14.3.2023

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

“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 ❤❤❤

I liked his monologue. It was funny and respectful.

That was an incredible opening. Well done, Jimmy.

That Guillermo bit made me so happy!!🥰🤣🤣

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

Classic! After last year’s disastrous ending this comes as a refreshing reboot!

Finally.. The Oscar's back on track. Excellent job Jimmy! Glad Guillermo was able to have his own seat.

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.

I love that he was danced off the stage... 😆😂

I never saw this on Sunday night, so am happy this is up on KZfaq. I think the writers and Jimmy Kimmel did a *terrific* job! This must be a difficult gig, and when live, anything can happen. Yet the participants in his jokes all played along, which was fun, and no one was insulted (too badly). It *is* just movies, after all.

Great opening monologue! Jimmy nailed it!!!🎉

As a current student in a public speaking class, I really appreciate the skill it takes to be able to speak for such a long time without reading off of something. Kudos to you Jimmy!

12:20 Andrew constantly serving the meme community

Jimmy Kimmel is my favourite Oscars host. So thrilled that he was asked to host again.

Jimmy Kimmel's 2023 Oscars Monologue delivered a perfect blend of humor and wit, making it a memorable and entertaining start to the 95th Academy awards. 😁👍

The Oscars are just so much better with a host. Any awards show needs an MC, gives the whole things structure and doesn’t feel awkward like the other years. He gets people laughing and loosens up the energy a bit and then its not as stiff for the rest of the show.

John Williams is an living legend, our finest living composer🥰💜💞

One year on, and every clap at the Oscars still feels like a tribute to that legendary slap.

Spielberg might be the most dangerous man in that room. Lol

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.

I have never seen so many people smile so hard, so long, ever😂

That was an awesome opening!!! ❤

The “maybe even give the assailant a hug” 😂🤣💯🔥did it for me. Jimmy is a legend for that whole monologue. Between this and Chris Rocks Netflix…..it was worth a year wait.

This is the first time the Oscars have felt like "good old days" in probably 5-10 years. No grandstanding, no angry hurt-filled speeches, no drama, no Harvey Weinsteins creeping up the red carpet, no real politics, no lineup of legacy nominees only there to make condescending statements about Hollywood's narcissism. Just a whole bunch of first-time nominees THRILLED to be there, speeches full of joy and enthusiasm, and a round of movies that I actually felt like I've seen. This felt like an Oscars full of positivity with very little cynicism, and I was genuinely overjoyed for every person who won. I wish more people actually watched this year because I feel like this was the year they finally got it right.

this was actually a really solid ceremony overall

I love the shoutouts to the different actors and actresses. That was awesome

That Guillermo joke was pristine 😂

✨Guillermo sitting next to Questlove, that’s a fine duo!✨

Well said...He introduced the movies and actors nominated, spoke about cinema and other movies not nominated...+ Some funny facts. He brought some respect back to the Oscars.

This is comedy in its highest form. It was hilarious, it was brave and it had class. Thanks for such a deliverance! The good old days are back!

That was an awesome monologue. Jimmy K hit just the right balance!

Damn, I can't believe tonight was Jamie Lee Curtis's first Oscar

The entire night was about comebacks. All four acting Oscar recipients, each one had a story about being either past their prime or dealing with rejection. One of the rare nights Hollywood got it right. And thank goodness no Slap-Gate to dominate the headlines. This was all about letting these actors shine in the spotlight. Congrats.

Wow, Jimmy Kimmel really brought his A-game to the Oscars this year! His monologue had me laughing from beginning to end.

I do love hearing your stories and watching your videos, thank you for making them

Brendan Fraser deserves more love from his peers.

So glad he can convey through a joke how absolutely ridiculous the lack of response to the slap last year was by Oscars and audience.

Haven't watched this in thirty three years. And my happiness just keeps going.

Finally a good monologue after so long! Also can't get over how everyone went absolute bananas over Andrew Garfield🙌

Jimmy in his finest hour insists on having Guillermo by his side!❤👏

It actually would be funny to see people danced off stage lol

Best monologue ever in Jimmy Kimmel.. Oops !! the Oscars!! 👏

Jimmy Kimmel was the perfect host. I laughed out loud a lot, right up till the final bit. I noticed in the comments a lot of new fans - watch his show, as he is perfectly hilarious every single night. He is the absolute best!!!

Not a Kimmel fan in the slightest, but this was a solid monologue, he had me cracking up more than a few times.

Now that is what you call "An Oscar worthy entrance"... brilliant idea!

Maybe it was just me but I really love the sense of camaraderie that Kimmel developed just calling out the names of those characters....(got chills with Mandalorian) as if they would form some kind of an Oscar superleague LOL....

Jimmy kills it every time he does this show

Really glad to see Brandon Fraiser getting love. Dudes had it hard and everyone loves a comeback story.

At last, a ceremony where monologue isn't boring!

Also, I like how Pedro Pascal quickly reacted to the camera. He's ready. LOL.

One of the safest & tame monologues in Oscar history

Kimmel killed it! Great monologue!

"When I look around this room I can't help but remember, is ozempic right for me?" 💀💀💀🤣

Jimmy Kimmel is Incredible :) Please bring him back to host the Oscars next year :)

That Seth Rogen joke 😂😂 Jimmy was amazing here 👏

Jimmy Kimmel did an outstanding job hosting the show! I have not watched the Academy Awards for years and really, really enjoyed it this year!

Two actors from "Encino Man" won an Oscar in 2023, so happy for both of them, Michelle Yeoh & Jamie Lee Curtis👍👍👍👏👏👏😂😂😂

I watched in uk yesterday. Jimmy is the best. Made me laugh. Was my favourite opening in many years. Great job Jimmy.

Jimmy is perfect for this. He was extremely entertaining. I hope he is chosen for next year’s, too. 👍

Make sure not to make fun of Will Smiths wife now.

3:29 I’d be pissed if I had to sit behind her you can already see the guy beside her trying to look over her 😂

3:15 I love how you can hear Ke Huy Quan answearing Kimmel's question

Woah Donnie Yen sitting back on John William?

Perfect host and monologue. Addressed everything that needed addressing including a little reprimand for the audience’s apathy last year. Well done Mr Kimmel👏

That's how you redeem yourself! jokes and remarks that are almost crossing the line but just don't... Incredible job Jimmy Kimmel... And finally the oscars where worth watching again!

HAHAHHA he killed it with ET 🤣

That Michelle Yeoh smile *melts*

I loved seeing mad eye moody and the penguin sitting next to each other 😂

Jimmy really nailed it. Especially the way he talked about last year's incident.

I just love how Andrew knows were expecting Tom🤣

I love that Jimmy points a spotlight on Guillermo any chance he gets.

You know you're getting older when the Oscars camera pans to the audience and you have no idea who 50% of the people are

the hesitation in applause when he said spiderman 😭😭 they were definitely expecting tom holland there

Andrew Garfield is the best Spider-man from the worst Spider-man movies. Even the best actors can't redeem a poorly written film. He deserves another shot. He was so damn great in No Way Home. Honestly the best part of the movie.

I love you (so to speak). I find you a quick , funny, just mean enough & I like your comparisons . Simply I like you. Thanks for all your your utube content. Thanks for eating super with us every night especially durning Covid 19. Thanks again

'The way movies are meant to be seen - in a theater'. Damn right Jimmy!

Jimmy did a GREAT job! And for all the Pedro Pascal fans 12:15 you're welcome. 😁

That was a great opening monologue!

Can you imagine if Ricky Gervais had hosted? Absolutely nothing would have been held back 😂
