‘High School Musical 3: Senior Year’ = Best Picture?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
The industrious kids at Oh No They Didn’t! have compiled a bunch of For Your Consideration ad posters that will be published in the hallowed Hollywood magazine Daily Variety meant to suggest Oscar nominations for various categories to members of the Motion Picture Academy. This year’s batch of For Your Consideration ads are pretty standard (I really love the WALL•E and Batman: The Dark Knight ads) but one in particular caught my eye:
LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!! The folks at Disney CANNOT be serious, right? This HAS to be some sort of joke … RIGHT?! They don’t really think that High School Musical 3: Senior Year is worthy of a Best Picture nomination … RIGHT?!?!?! LOL! I mean … what? Words fail.
on a side note, i totally own that dress she is wearing in the screen cap above! and i’m not a teenager!! whoops
Is that galloping I hear? Why yes, it’s the Third Horseman of the Apocalypse.
(If HSM 3 actually gets a nom, look out for the Fourth…)
BOoooooooOOOO
EPIC FAIL! Nuff said.
Im not saying its worthy of a nomination but in the last few years the Oscars havent been watched that much…if they nominated a popular movie there would be more people watching the telecast. Because the Oscars arent about the awards- no matter what actors might say- its about the show. If it were about the awards it wouldnt need to be televised.
Years ago Entertainment Weekly did a story on unlikely Oscar consideration ads (i.e. Die Another Day for Best Picture, Best Actor, and more). They’re actually more common than we think– although HSM 3 is an amusing example, to be sure. I remember someone quoted in the story: “Often times studios are contractually obligated to publish these ads.”
