last year's forgotscars


The Forgotcars:
Showing love to Oscar's forgotten
By Jon Chattman
Each year, it happens. Your favorite film, actor, actress, or director is snubbed by the Academy. This year, most worthy films and talent were honored, but alas, there were the few, the proud, who got the cold shoulder on Oscar nomination morning. With that, we honor the Oscar forgotten with our fourth annual "the Forgotscars." Be sure to send your picks to win via email (thecheappop@aol.com) by Feb. 27. Winners will not be awarded a gold statue or be able to attend a swanky party. They will, however, get some kind of recognition: something the Oscar voters failed to do.
