That's all fine and good, but more importantly, next Sunday we will host the second annual Way Things Turn Online Oscar Pickin' Contest!
Sure, our contest won't have a red carpet or a celebrity host, but we will have live results updates throughout the broadcast (on the blog and on Twitter @waythingsturn) and a $25 gift card prize for our winner.
And dammit, we'll have fun!
Here are the basic contest details.
- Entry in the contest is free.
- Ballots will be collected via online survey (I'll publish a link a few days before the show).
- Participants will vote on 9 categories (one more than last year):
- Best Picture
- Best Director
- Leading Actor
- Leading Actress
- Supporting Actor
- Supporting Actress
- Cinematography (our new addition)
- Original Screenplay
- Adapted Screenplay
- We'll once again use the Oscar broadcast "end time" as our official tie breaker.
We'll announce the winner on The Way Things Turn website, and I'll mail a movie theater (or Starbucks) gift card to the participant who makes the most correct picks.
Here's a printable list of all the Oscar nominees for your reference. There are nine Best Picture nominees, and a host of other films that received nominations for their screenplays and for the outstanding performances of their stars.
You only have one week left and there are tons of films to consider, so get busy with your last minute movie-watching and stay tuned to The Way Things Turn for updates and the official contest link!
