86th Annual Academy Award Winners Live Update

Illustrated by Ly Ngo.

Well, folks, we made it. It's the end of awards season and what a run it's been. Between Lupita Nyong'o's sartorial domination and Jared Leto's sublime hair, there's been enough water-cooler fodder to keep us yapping for weeks. Oh, and we obviously can't forget the flicks that've glittered across the silver screen. Who's going to take the big gold fella home: a wolf of Wall Street, a stranded astronaut, an AIDS victim, or a man in love with his operating system? Your guess is as good as ours. But, one thing's for sure: These stellar movies range from the serious to the fantastical — a perfect portrait of 2013, and we're stoked for tonight's events.

Keep it locked here to track the big winners. We'll be updating this list as the night goes on and as Ellen DeGeneres slays the hosting game. We also suggest having our Oscars drinking-game rules at the ready because, well, why not celebrate with the best of 'em? Plus, if you need a few giggles and reassurance that Cate Blanchett is, indeed, a beautiful fashion fairy sent to us from some perfect planet, we'll be live tweeting the entire show, too. So, sit back, get your snacks in order, and enjoy. It'll be a year before we get to do this again.
