2022 Rotten Oscars

Well theyre going WAY late despite the cuts, but something tells me that the ratings might just turn around this year.

Yeah, for better or worse, Will Smith sorta saved the Oscars' ass with that slap.

[ArchibaldTuttle]

He apologized to the Academy but not to Chris Rock

Is this the weirdest Oscars moment we've seen in the 11 years of this contest? I think so! So weird

Has there ever been anything so crazy in the history of the Oscars??? (I haven’t googled this so maybe there is.)

Apologizing would have been admitting fault, which would’ve been a bad move in the eventual settlement negotiations.

But everyone laughing and giving him a standing o after assaulting someone in one of the most public ways possible is very crazy to me.

Oh yeah all the top 4 right now have the same picks for the rest of the categories (I think) and I way underbaked the tiebreaker thinking it’d actually run shorter with the whole preshow thing.

Rolling Liza out like that was not good. Gaga did great helping her out

Congrats to ArchibaldTuttle, CSmiley317, and onesheet for receiving the top scores of 22/23!


Tiebreaker is the show runtime. To be determined soon...

[cerebus]

nazman went for all the marbles by going for POTD. Would have been the sole winner if that one had come up.

[jkw3000]

Congrats to the winners! 3 incorrects on my end, all shorts - like a goddamn curse on my house. Stoked I nailed all the major ones though.

[RottenAtom]

Huge congrats to ArchibaldTuttle, our 2022 Rotten Oscars Champion! Tuttle, you get first pick of the prizes and you may take the stage for an acceptance speech if you'd like. This is your shining moment

CSmiley317 gets 2nd pick of the prizes
Onesheet gets 3rd pick

Huge thanks to the donors, binky79, revmod, and Salty Winters

Cheers to everybody who participated! Strong year for competition. Happy with my 21/23

Thanks again to RottenAtom and to all the gift donors, for keeping this thing going - always fun to play this game with you monsters. Here's to next year, and a tiebreaker involving guessing which two celebrities will get into a fight.

Looking forward to the rematch

All I know is Chris Rock's next standup is going to be hilarious

Was waiting for this meme.

Internet delivers.

What in the what????? I’ve been doing this for many years now and have never come close to winning anything.

The prize or the competition has never been the draw for me. I say it every time I see the thread pop up, but this is my favorite time of year on EB. It exists for the pure love of movies and this community, and I’m just happy to be here and participate.

Biggest thanks to RottenAtom for continuing to graciously host and engage with the forum. This is completely unnecessary, unprompted work, and I hope it’s obvious that it’s been meaningful.

Huge thanks to everyone who donated a prize, present or past. I’ve been meaning to volunteer for years, but RA - count me in for a prize donation next year.

I do it up for the Oscars every year, even if the nominees or ceremony are not the most exciting. A final thank you to everyone who has participated in any Rotten Oscars for giving me something funny to read or a prompt to respond to with some ish while celebrating the evening.

I have too many posters (and already have the 007) so imma go with the Nightmare Alley tarot cards. Loved the movie, figured it wouldn’t win anything, but always have a great time with a GDT film.

Thanks again and cheers to all!

[RottenAtom]

Cheers, Tuttle! Always a class act. That late switch to Encanto was a good move

Watching Brazil right now on your behalf


AT chose the Nightmare Alley cards, CSmiley317 gets next pick of the prizes.
