Hey again. Short post today. I figured, for the sake of aesthetically pleasing summarization, I'd post my Oscar ballot, were I able to cast one. This is just a way of rounding up all of my Best of 09 in one place. I'll give each category: Winner in bold, and the choices that actually got Oscar nominations with an asterisk.

I wish you had an Oscar Ballot (official). Someday!
ReplyDeleteSomeday! I cheated a little because, as far as nominations are concerned, you can only vote for best picture and the category which pertains to whatever branch you belong to. For instance, were I in the Director's branch of the Academy, I could only nominate picture and director. Everyone votes for winners, though!
