The 96th Academy Awards took place at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood Sunday, and they generated a fresh batch of memes.
Hollywood's biggest stars were in attendance at the Jimmy Kimmel-hosted event, from Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling to Emma Stone and Robert Downey Jr. Messi the dog, the standout star from "Anatomy of a Fall," also had a seat at the show.
Here are the best memes and tweets from the night.

Messi the dog was a highlight of the evening, "clapping" respectfully from his seat as Robert Downey Jr. won his first-ever Oscar for his performance in "Oppenheimer." Messi's piercing blue eyes also drew comparisons to "Oppenheimer" star Cillian Murphy.

John Cena went onstage nearly nude with a pair of sandals to ironically present the award for best costume design. Some were perplexed, but others applauded his commitment to the bit.
