What is Academy Idol?
Few parts of The Awards Circuit are more democratic, or more popular for that matter, than Academy Idol, a hallmark of Oscar season at the site. For the uninitiated, quite simply, this contest is our integration of American Idol style voting with the big Oscar hopefuls for the year. Once the field is selected in the fall, week by week, they compete against each other in categories like Directors, Cinematography, and so on…culminating in films being eliminated each week. How does that happen? Well, YOU, the reader get to vote and push your favorite candidate forward in the contest.
