The winners!

Theory of Everything

Selma
Best song, Glory 

Birdman
Best Picture!
Best director, Alehandro Gonzales Inarritu
Best Cinematography
Best Original Screenplay

The Oscars listened to the critics that liked both Boyhood and Birdman and possibly to Kal Kat, and decided that even though Boyhoood was a tie for best, it was late, and Birdman was on time, so it got the win! 

Grand Budapest Hotel
Best makeup
Best costumes
Best production design
Best original score

Won't get movie but will get something, but really Guardians of the Galaxy should have been nominated for this. They had a lot of good makeup on Zoe Sandara and others.

Costumes? They were better than the ones in Boyhood? Okay.

Well it is a close tie for production design, as it was pretty cool in both Boyhood and this film. Boyhood gets is really just for the years it took finishing it. Nope though, as Oscar liked this other one.

American Sniper
According to wiki long before results, best picture, best actor, Bradley Cooper
Best Sound editing

Well, when they win this it is possible they won't win the big one.

If it gets best picture, it's because it ends depressing, not because of the hype about the trail of the dude who killed him afterward, after he took a mentally troubled friend to the target range, and his friend wigged out and killed him. The hype should not have sold the movie to Oscar. It hasd to be the closing credits depressing part. Oscar loves that.

Birdman also had a downbeat ending but a better one, more Black Swan than There Will Be blood.  

Kat likes movies not based on reality. He wants to be entertained not see reality. Reality is everywhere. Boyhood also was kind of a 'reality' flick, but more of a Mary Sue fable.

Boyhood
Best supporting actress, Patricia Arquette

Winning this sometimes clinches the title of best picture, except for last year. 

Whiplash
Best supporting Actor, J K Simmons
Sound mixing
Film editing

When did this movie even come out?
That's a bold one, film editing, when Birdman is one long continuous awesome film take, and Boyhood took over a dozen years! 

Big Hero 6
Best animated film

No, the Lego Movie was way better, but it's Pixar here, so they win without trying.  Lego was not even nominated. Technically Guardians of the Galaxy had way better animation, including a fully CGI bionic raccoon.


Interstellar
Best Visual effects

This was expected as if they're going with scifi they will pick effects, even though Guardians of the Galaxy which wasn't nominated is a close tie.
