The 94th Academy Awards caught the world’s attention for a number of reasons, from the planned segments to the shocking and unexpected moments. The biggest winner of the night was Warner Bros.’ live-action remake of Dune, which earned six Oscars in total across the night. Among the film’s list of winners was composer Hans Zimmer, who won his second Best Original Score Oscar for his work on the film. While Zimmer did not attend the awards ceremony in person, he did break his silence on the award in a pretty epic way, sharing photos of himself accepting his plastic Oscar while wearing a bathrobe in a hotel in Amsterdam. Zimmer then subsequently shared a video of his acceptance speech, still clad in the bathrobe.

Thank you to @TheAcademy, but most importantly, to all the @DuneMovie musicians and our leader Denis Villeneuve. pic.twitter.com/XbVBYJ8dHY
