Parasite’s Bong Joon-ho Just Tied This Man for Most Oscar Wins in One Night

Not only did Bong Joo-ho's Parasite make history at this year's Oscars by being the first non-English language film to win the Best Picture award, but the writer/director himself actually tied a creative icon for most Oscar wins in a single ceremony. Bong Joo-ho took home four Oscars tonight - for Best Picture, Best Original Screenplay, Best Director, and Best International Feature Film. In doing do he tied the record for most single night wins with...Walt Disney. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=oscar-record-holders&captions=true"] Disney too brought home four Oscars back in 1954 - for The Living Desert (Best Documentary Feature), The Alaskan Eskimo (Best Documentary Short), Toot, Whistle, Plunk and Boom (Best Short Subject Cartoon), and Bear Country (Best Short Subject Two-Reel). The pool for those who've taken home only three Oscars in one sitting is a little more crowed, as eleven people have accomplished that - including James Cameron, Peter Jackson and Alfonso Cuarón, to name a few.

4 Ways Parasite Made Academy Awards History

Bong Joon-ho's Parasite is one of the big winners of the 2020 Academy Awards. Not only did the critically acclaimed film bring home multiple Oscars this year, it managed to make history in the process. Read on to see all the ways in which Parasite achieved new milestones for South Korean filmmakers at this year's Oscars ceremony. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=best-reviewed-movies-of-2019&captions=true"]

Best Original Screenplay

Parasite took home an early win by beating out all challengers for Best Original Screenplay. In the process, it became the first South Korean film to win that award. It's all the more noteworthy achievement considering the Academy rarely nominates non-English language films in this category, much less gives them the top honor. For example, Alfonso Cuaron's Roma was the only non-English Language nominee in last year's Best Original Screenplay lineup, and it didn't win that category despite taking home the awards for  Best Foreign Language Film, Best Cinematography and Best Director.

Best International Feature Film

Parasite was a favorite to win the newly renamed Best International Feature Film category this year, and it didn't disappoint. It's now the first South Korean film to win that award. That may seem surprising given how robust the South Korean film industry is and how far this award (in its many varied forms) dates back in Oscars history. Prior to 2020, the category was known as Best Foreign Language Film, and Bong acknowledged and applauded the change during his acceptance speech. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/12/20/igns-best-movie-of-2019"]

Best Director

In one of the most significant moments of the ceremony, Bong became the first South Korean person to win the Academy Award for Best Director. Bong was clearly moved by the honor, while also admitting he assumed his time in the spotlight was over after accepting the Oscar for Best International Feature Film.

Best Picture

Parasite's hot streak continued through the very end, as it took home the top honor at this year's Academy Awards. Parasite is not only the first South Korean film to win Best Picture, but the first non-English language film of any kind to win that award. It's a real game-changer given the Academy's infamous track record in that regard. It's also worth noting that Parasite is the first film distributed by Neon to win Best Picture. Neon previously drew attention at the 2018 Academy Awards when I, Tonya's Allison Janney won Best Supporting Actress. Parasite was a popular pick in IGN's 2020 Oscar Predictions. Many writers wanted the film to win, but few expected it to actually take home the award. This is nothing if not a welcome surprise. To see why Parasite deserved all these accolades, check out our review of Bong Joon-ho's masterpiece and see why we picked it as IGN's best film of 2019.

Joaquin Phoenix Wins First Oscar for Joker

Joaquin Phoenix has finally taken home an Academy Award, and he has the Clown Prince of Crime to thank. Phoenix won the Oscar for Actor in a Leading Role for his performance in Joker. This was Phoenix's fourth Oscar nomination and first win, having previously been nominated for 2000's Gladiator, 2005's Walk the Line and 2012's The Master. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/jokers-oscar-chances-will-it-be-the-first-comic-book-movie-to-win-best-picture"] Phoenix has the distinction of being only the second actor to win an Oscar for playing a superhero character. The first? None other than Heath Ledger, who won a posthumous Best Supporting Actor award for his performance as Joker in 2008's The Dark Knight. The Academy clearly love that Joker. Joker was nominated for a total of 11 Academy Awards, but only took home one other Oscar, for Best Original Score. Phoenix also won big at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in January.

Oscar Winners 2020: The Complete List

The 92nd Academy Awards were held Sunday, February  9, 2020, wherein the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences announced their picks for the best films and artists of 2019 during a hostless ceremony broadcast on ABC. Although Joker lead the pack with 11 nominations, it only took home two (for Best Actor and Original Score) while Netflix only won two out of their 24 noms. No, Oscar night clearly belonged to Parasite, which became the first foreign language film to win Best Picture. Parasite was also the first South Korean film to win Best Original Screenplay, Best International Feature Film, and Best Director (for Bong Joon-ho). Our staff had overwhelmingly predicted that 1917 will win Best Picture, even though the majority of us stated their preference was that Parasite should win instead. (IGN named Parasite as the Best Movie of 2019, after all.) So needless to say there are a lot of happy IGN folks tonight!

Oscars: James Corden and Rebel Wilson Presented While Dressed Like Their Cats Characters

Cats may have have been a critically-panned box office bust that caused Universal to lose a cool $100 million, but that doesn't mean some of its stars can't have a sense of humor about it. At tonight's Oscars ceremony, James Corden and Rebel Wilson presented an award together, walking out on stage dressed like their Cats characters Bustopher Jones and Jennyanydots, respectively. "As cast members of the motion picture Cats," Wilson opened, to hearty laughs from the crowd. "Nobody more than us knows the importance of good visual effects," Corden said. That's right, the two of them were there to present the Oscar for Best Visual Effects. Yes, after Cats notoriously was rereleased, just a few days after its premiere, with an update to the film's rushed, slapdash visuals Watch their bit below...
