CAYOM Year 7: OSCAR NOMINATIONS (Ceremony At 8 PM EST, Saturday 5/25)

[Alpha]

Of course you can vote Alpha. It's part of the honors system.

 

Just don't do anything fishy, like giving Amulet a Super-1 ranking worth 7 points instead of 5.

 

Speaking of which, what's a Super-1? Is that legal in CAYOM?

By now, all Oscar submissions are closed so I can work on the actual ceremony. This thread can now be used for things such as Oscar predictions and such. The ceremony will be hosted tomorrow night at 8 PM EST. As a new feature this year, a special "red carpet event" will be posted at 7:45 PM EST.

12 wins for JC? I dig it.

[ChD]

Only 12 for JC? Now that's harsh.

[Ezen Baklattan]

I'm waiting for Numbers to realize that if JC wins, all of his BP wins occurred on years where a Spark movie was made, and he's going to blackmail me into making more movies/prequels beyond the main trilogy.

Or I just happen to release my best films every three years.

[Ezen Baklattan]

I just like to feel that I have influence over you.

I just like to feel that I have influence over you. 

 

Only when it comes to casting Cumberbatch in Mysteries 2.

[ChD]

I swear I don't get the deal with Cumberbatch's rising popularity.

[riczhang]

Cumberbatch is awesome. 

[Blankments]

Y'all knew this was coming:

 

[riczhang]

Out of Curiosity, who submitted a ballot?

[Blankments]

On the subject of Cumberbatch, there's a good chance he'll be showing up in the DCU's Phase 2...

[4815162342]

I swear I don't get the deal with Cumberbatch's rising popularity.

 

I used Cumberbatch back in Year 2 before it was cool to do so. Now he's taken off in mainstream so his role in a Year 8 sequel I have is kinda small for him it seems.

Also, I'm using Cumberbatch for Mysteries 2 because someone pointed out that the Spasslians are similar in description to Ezen's race and then Spaghetti cast two actors from Mysteries in cameo roles in Spark 2, so I decided to continue with cross-franchise honoring.

Star Trek Into Darkness. And maybe Sherlock.

[Ezen Baklattan]

And Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.

[Alpha]

And Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.

 

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy did gain attention for Cumberbatch, but it wasn't unfortunately a cultural milestone.

[riczhang]

And Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy.

 

And what a masterpiece that was.
