Congrats!!!
Thanks to Bianca for putting this together! I hope everyone enjoyed playing along.
Thank you Bianca for organizing this!!! Job well done! And congrats to Judy for winning the First Annual Award Contenders Oscar contest and for stealing my Hurt Locker DVD ! Great predictions!
Damn that foreign language film category! That’s two years in a row now the foreign language category produced an upset. Had I done my homework more in this category, I would have seen Entertainment Weekly’s predictions. They predicted an upset win for A Secret in Their Eyes. My choice was The White Ribbon. I have a feeling that this category is going to cost me my other Oscar contest I joined as well, as it was the tie-breaker category.
Oh well, now I got to go out and buy my copy of the Best Picture of 2009 instead of getting a freebee. The question is, “Do I buy it now or should I wait for a special collector’s edition to come out complete with bells & whistles?”
I had fun setting this up and seeing the varing choices. I execpt us to add more ativities to increase reader participation and just have fun! Free stuff is always fun, right?
Thomas – you did really well. I’d say you had a really good night! Thanks as always for visiting the site!
Who’s ready for the 2010 race?
Yeah! Well Done, Good Quiz…a Shocker for me was ‘UP IN THE AIR’ not winning Adapted Screenplay.
I am Bianca!! Let’s hope it’s a great year!!
Bradley – Yeah, that was the biggest upset of the night no doubt!
Thomas – There’s always next year, right?
