2016 Fantasy Oscars Party Game
Guess what? It's year five for the Fantasy Oscars game. I've been creating and sharing this little game deck since 2012 (I invented it with friends at our 2011 party), and that's pretty crazy to think about. Even more crazy
2015 Fantasy Oscars Party Game
It's that time of year again, folks. 'Tis the season to lock yourself in at home and avoid the bitter cold outside by making good on your promise to watch every Oscar-nominated movie before the awards air (in two weeks, by the way).

So how are you doing? I'm definitely slacking this year. Of all the Academy Award-nominated movies and performances, I've only seen The Grand Budapest Hotel and Gone Girl (with leading actress nominee Rosamund Pike, who was crazy scary in the movie, no?). While I slacked at actually watching movies this year, I've been keeping up with the awards race, and getting to see little bits and pieces of 2014's best films and actors. So, not to brag or anything, but I think I'll be really great at the Fantasy Oscar Draft at this year's party.
If you're new to the game, here's how it goes:
Get Motivated: Free Spring Prints for Your Office

2014 Fantasy Oscars Draft Game
I'm getting the annual Fantasy Oscars game cards out a little late this year, but I just couldn't leave you guys hanging. I'm actually overwhelmed by the amount of people who've reached out to me since the Oscar nominees were
Making Spirits Bright
I love Stock the Bar parties. Maybe it's because my friends and I are at the stage where we already have all we need, but I love the idea of starting newlyweds (or nearly weds) off with a fully-stocked home
Gifts for guys: The “Bro”quet
I don't know about you, but I'm always stuck on what to get my boyfriend for a special day like our dating anniversary or Valentine's day. Guys have it so easy: Buy flowers, sign a card, rinse and repeat. But my
2013 Fantasy Oscars Draft Game
It's that time of year again! No, not Valentine's Day or Can-We-Put-The-Coats-Away-Yet? Day. It's almost time for the Academy Awards. And of course, for the 2013 Fantasy Oscars Draft.
Looking for the 2016 edition? Right this way...
In case you missed it last year, I put together a little cut-and-play game for you to follow along with the award show and make it more competitive (a great idea, especially, if you've got some guys who think an Oscar party is their version of hell). It borrows elements from Fantasy Football, where you put together a dream roster of pro football players who earn points for your fantasy team; only this time, you're choosing films, actors, actresses, performers, preseneters, producers and directors to fill out your 2013 Oscars Dream Team.
