The web-goddess Oscar Contest 2008 is now CLOSED for new entries! The awards show is about to begin. I’ll be updating scores as often as I can over the next few hours. You’ll be able to see how you’re doing on the results page. And remember to count the dead people for me! Thanks…
Update: And it’s all over! Congratulations to Gerald Granozio, who takes out the top prize this year. There was actually a five-way tie for first between Gerald, Brinton Callaghan, Jeremy Muir, Kevan Tucker, and Terry Rutherford, all of whom got 11 out of 12 correct. It came down to the dead-people tie-breaker then, which this year ended up being 43. Gerald guessed 42, just beating out Kevan who guessed 45. I think this was our closest contest ever! Thanks to everybody who entered.
Even later: Wow! It turns out that Gerald is a bit of a ringer. 🙂

Good grief. This thing’s been on for an HOUR, and so far they’ve given out a single award? Ridiculous.
LOL
Tilda Swinton? THAT’S thinned the ranks a bit.
That’s exactly what I said when she won.
Tilda Swinton AND Marion Cotillard.
I am sucking this year.
I knew you’d get sucked in by the Dylan movie… 🙂
I feel bad for picking Atonement as Best Pic now. Might as well have followed my heart and gone NCOFM…
I got 43
Ditto on 43.
I still can’t believe about Tilda Swinton. I JUST watched Michael Clayton, and although she was compelling, she wouldn’t have been my first or second choice.
Thanks for counting, guys! You = THE BEST.
Tilda Swinton and Marion Cotillard.
Who would have picked that!!!!
You can still see the flames where I crashed and burned!
