7th Annual Awards Daily Simulated Oscar Ballot – deadline extended

Update: Deadline Extended to Wednesday, Jan 14th, Midnight Pacific Time

For the 7th year in a row, to help us better understand the Academy’s voting system, we’re running a Simulated Oscar Ballot built by our own accounting wizard, Rob Y. AD readers represent a demographic that doesn’t match the AMPAS — and yet, in spite of our differences, the results of past years have shown surprising alignment with the choices of Oscar voters. We always want to tell our voters that we’d rather you fill out your ballot with your own preferences rather than try to guess what the Academy might do. Rob says it best: “Pretend you are an honorary member of the Academy, and you are asked to nominate films in their respective categories. Make your selections accordingly.” Simple as that. Have at it!

Voting for the nominations phase will close on January 11 at 10:00 PM PST.
