Welcome to the Movie Awards Redux Past Awards for 2008.
The following categories will have up to 7 nominees:
Best Picture Best Director Best Actor Best Actress Best Supporting Actor Best Supporting Actress Best Original Screenplay Best Adapted Screenplay
The following categories will have up to 5 nominees:
Best Ensemble Cast Best Cinematography Best Production Design Best Costume Design Best Makeup and Hair-styling Best Stunt, Fight and Dance Choreography Best Visual Effects Best Editing Best Sound Mixing Best Sound Editing Best Original Score Best Original Song
Please submit ranked ballots to me. You can submit ballots with less than the category's number or without certain categories other than the top 8.
The top 8 categories will be scored thus:
1. 5 points 2. 4 points 3. 3 points 4. 2 points 5. 1 point 6. 1 point 7. 1 point
You can submit just 5 if you'd like and your top choice will still get the full points. Less than 5 and it will count for fewer points.
The eligibility period will be for the first theatrical release in the film's country (or one of its countries) of origin. Look on IMDb for that information.
The voting period will be until May 6th at 11:59pm PST.
You can post any FYCs in this thread.

Just so there's no confusion, we'll have a list of films whose eligibility might be unclear. If you know of any other films that might cause confusion, let me know so I can add it to the list.
These films are eligible this year:
The Fall Julia Love Exposure* Revanche Shotgun Stories Timecrimes Two Lovers
These films are not eligible this year:
Boy A The Hurt Locker Me and Orson Welles Paranoid Park
*This was technically eligible for 2009, but I don't think anyone was aware of that, so we'll allow it to be eligible this year.

Post by Ryan_MYeah on Mar 19, 2019 21:44:52 GMT
Okay, maybe just a little.
ABSOLUTELY vote for it in Sound Mixing and Sound Editing.
I’d argue no other film this decade has sound design more vital or varied than this.

Just wanna point out that Love Exposure wasn't released theatrically until 2009 according to IMDb, which by MAR standards would make it a 2009 film. Though if people voted in 2009 unaware of this, that shouldn't necessarily make the film ineligible this year. But it might be worth knowing.

I suggest that we allow it for 2008, as it's a pretty big deal with several people.

And I assume that this song is original (it's from Love Exposure). I could be wrong.
