Star Wars: The Force Awakens has yet to win an Oscar tonight, losing out to both Mad Max and Ex Machina, but there's still one very important award left: Best Original Score. The nomination, turns out, is the 50th for John Williams —€” his first being 1967's Valley of the Dolls. (In total, he's won five statuettes so far.)

Who better to remind you of this important note than BB-8, R2-D2, and C-3PO? No one, that's who. And they're right — Threepio does bear a striking resemblance to the night's little take-home award.
