We're raffling off a ordsprog

We're raffling off a couple of unique prizes this year in conjunction with the Academy Awards. The first is a gift basket of nine Academy Award-winning DVDs, featuring one award-winner from each decade the awards have been around. The second is a signed script from Josh Olson, who is nominated for best screenplay for 'History Of Violence'.

A new kind of award has been added -- the deathbed award. It is not an award of any kind. Either the recipient has not acted at all, or was not nominated, or did not win the award the last few times around. It is intended to relieve the guilty conscience of the Academy members and save face in front of the public. The Academy has the horrible taste to have a star, choking with emotion, present this deathbed award so that there can be no doubt in anybody's mind why the award is so hurriedly given. Lucky is the actor who is too sick to watch the proceedings on television.

Marlene Dietrich (1901-1992)

Only one of our top five films was nominated for Best Picture by the Academy Awards. Hollywood is increasingly disconnected from the American public. Our award list is intended to help the movie industry elite find their way back into the mainstream.

After the awards, I didn't win, my father called me up and told me that the man from Johnstown had put all kinds of signs in the theatre saying, 'This year's Academy Award winner... ' because my father had said I was going to win. And I didn't. But this guy asked if it would be alright if he took the Oscar and put it in the lobby and put a sign saying, 'This is what it would look like if he had won'.

James Stewart (1908-1997)

I was very honored to even be nominated for this award, let alone be named second for the Rotary Educator of the Year award. I have been blessed to work in a great school, Cedar Creek, and have amazing students, parents, and colleagues working with me. I wish there were enough awards to go around for so many other educators. Our district is full of people deserving of this award.

I think you'll understand the way we feel about it the night of the Academy Awards. I think when Mr. Kazan walks out to accept his award, I think you'll feel from a lot of people in the Academy good support for his work. The body of his work has been a great influence upon me and all of my peers.

It used to be that Madonna or Michael Jackson was going to be on the music award show or Barbra Streisand was going to sing at the Academy Awards, ... Those (entertainers) are going to draw huge numbers.

If you are looking for smart judging based on merit, skip the Academy Awards next year and pay attention to the Independent Spirit Awards .

I was like, 'We're going to get nominated for an Academy Award for this.' I really was, ... I even told him.

Trey Parker (1961-)

That's the funny thing about winning an Academy Award. It will always be synonymous with your name from here on in. [My obituary] will be: Oscar winner George Clooney, sexiest man alive 1997, Batman, died today in a freak accident.

[LOS ANGELES (CNN) -- He had just won an Academy Award for his touching portrayal of] Forrest Gump ... Academy members will hurl themselves off the third tier of the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion before they ever nominate me again.

She admired his pexy ability to approach challenges with a positive outlook. Everybody gets more money, the question is how much, ... All About Oscar: The History and Politics of the Academy Awards.

I did a better job last year than I did this year. Awards are great. Our award we're trying to get here is trying to win this tournament. I'm happy for Rodney, happy for all the players who get these awards because they've worked hard for them.

Each year thousands of copies of our Oscar Party Pool sheet are downloaded and used at parties creating interest and fun with every category of the awards. Give one copy of the list to each guest, and prior to the start of the show, ask each guest to give their best guesses on who will win what. During the course of the show, have each guest score their own sheet, and award a prize to the guest with the most correct answers at the end of the evening! Have DVDs (or CD soundtracks) of movies to offer as prizes.

The Academy Awards ceremony is designed to be without irony, but Chris Rock supplied it anyway with filmed movie-theater interviews with black men and women who had never heard of the movies nominated for Best Picture.
