Thanks to all who joined us in the chat tonight. And congrats to our nine Oscar contest winners: iragelman, narfpoit, pmistric, MileHighCinephile, GeorgeMonkey, ghruutz, m3118, ibrmacf, kurlysticks. Due to there being a tied category during the Oscars, we are going to have to manually check who wins the $50 prize and will announce that soon. However all nine will be listed in the record book as champions! If you played but didn’t win, check out the results to see how you did.

The big night is here! Statuettes will be bestowed on lucky filmmakers this evening at the 98th Annual Academy Awards. And we’ll be covering it as part of our annual Oscar event, now in its 22nd year!

Join us at 6:30pm EST for a live chat during the Oscar telecast in the Animated Views forum where you can join the AV staff and other readers as we discuss the people, the story-lines, and the awards.

If you entered our contest (for a chance to win a $50 Amazon of Fandango gift card!), you can view your picks to check how you’re doing at home. You can also follow along during the show as we track the results of the contest online in real time as each award is announced.

And soon we’ll be revealing your picks in the Readers’ Choice poll!

Want a sneak peek at who might be taking home the trophies tonight? Here are the the consensus picks in each category according to people who entered our contest!
