Bradley Cooper and Sam Elliott's nominations as Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor for their performances in A Star Is Born (2018) were the only nominations for fictional characters in their respective categories.

Bush, Dr. Don Shirley and Flip Zimmerman - the latter being a slightly fictional composite of a real personality.

Bad directing , rare shots of famous celebrities

I used to watch The Oscars just to see the celebrities and enjoy their laughs and reactions . This Oscars was a total mess. Even in this page I couldn't find many of celebs names either. I don't care who wins which category because mostly we already know the winners, but who is where and doing what in the Dolby Theater, I mean the actors and actresses. My rating is 2 and still believe the best one was The 85th Oscars (2013) hosted by Seth MacFarlane.
