Oscar Game - 2022

 OBJECT: Get the most points!



HOW TO PLAY:  Fill out a score sheet for each category with your choice (who you want to win) and your prediction (who you think WILL win).  




CATEGORIES



1.  MAJOR AWARDS


-Best Picture


-Best Director


-Best Actor


-Best Actress


-Best Supporting Actor


-Best Supporting Actress


-Best Original Screenplay


-Best Adapted Screenplay


-Best Original Score


-Best Original Song


-Best Animate Feature




On the night of the Oscars, give yourself 1 point for each correct guess in MY PREDICTIONS.  If you get a prediction wrong, subtract 1 point.  Give yourself 1 point for each correct guess in MY CHOICE.  There is no penalty for incorrect guesses for MY CHOICE.



For example:



Category


BEST DIRECTOR


-MY CHOICE = Steven Spielberg, "West Side Story"


-MY PREDICTION = Jane Campion, "The Power of the Dog"



BEST ACTOR


-MY CHOICE =Will Smith, "King Richard"


-MY PREDICTION = Andrew Garfield, "Tick, Tick... Boom!"




BEST ACTRESS


-MY CHOICE = Kristen Stewart, "Spenser"


-MY PREDICTION = Kristen Stewart, "Spenser"




If Jane Campion wins Best Director, gain 1 point for a correct guess in MY PREDICTIONS, but no points for an incorrect MY CHOICE  (total points = 1)



If Will Smith wins Best Actor, gain 1 point, for a correct MY CHOICE, but subtract 1 point for an incorrect MY PREDICTION (total points = 0)



If Kristen Stewart wins Best Actress, gain 1 points for correct MY CHOICE and 1 correct MY PREDICTION.  (total points =2)



You may NOT make a guess for a MY CHOICE in a category if you have not seen any of the films in the category.  You may, however, make a blind guess for the MY PREDICTION section even if you have not seen any of the nominees.




2.  TECHNICAL AWARDS


-Best Editing


-Best Cinematography


-Best Visual Effects


-Best Sound Editing


-Best Sound Mixing


-Best Makeup


-Best Costumes


-Best Production Design



For these, give yourself 1 point for each correct guess in MY PREDICTIONS.   Give yourself 1 points each correct guess in MY CHOICE.  There is no penalty for incorrect guesses for MY PREDICTIONS or MY CHOICE.





3.  MINOR AWARDS


-Best Documentary Feature


-Best Documentary Short


-Best Animated Short


-Best Live Action Short


-Best International Feature Film



For these, give yourself 1/5th of a point (.2) for each correct guess in MY PREDICTIONS.   Since so few people have seen these, there is no MY CHOICE section.  There is no penalty for incorrect guesses for MY PREDICTIONS.
