The rules are pretty much unchanged
from the last couple of years: I’m going to run through and give my own five
nominees and winners for the traditional Oscar film categories, with a
few exceptions. I’ve removed some of the categories that either a) I’m not
really qualified to judge due to, you know, not having seen (m)any (see, e.g.,
Best Documentary), or b) I don’t give a turd about (like Best Original Song).
But as Paul taketh away, Paul also giveth, so for every category I’ve taken
away, I’ve added one of my own. These new categories are the same as last year,
which means nothing more than I didn’t feel like spending time trying to think
of new ones. The only real change from last year is that I have reinstated the
two different Screenplay categories.
All of this is, of course, only in
my own humble opinion…though I am right. It says so in the title.
And, without much further ado…the
Pauls!
