Oscar Contest Results

February 23, 2015

Thank you to everyone who entered our 18th annual Predict the Academy Awards Contest. As usual, the contest drew hundreds of high-quality entries, with the winners predicting at least 21 of the winners on what proved to be an unpredictable Oscar night.

Read on for our list of 2015 prize winners...

Our overall winner is Oliver Davidson of Houston, Texas, who was the only player this year to predict 22 out of 24 winners on Oscar night. Oliver wins all eight Best Picture nominees on DVD or Blu-ray.

Second place goes to Drew Winser of Billerica, Massachussetts, who was the first person to submit predictions that matched 21 winners. Drew’s prize is Best Picture winner Birdman and Best Animated Feature winner Big Hero 6 on DVD or Blu-ray.

Finally, our bonus prize for our regular entrant with the best score not in the top two goes to Paul Marsh of Lansing, Michigan, who was eighth overall, and one of the earliest entrants who scored 20 out 24. Paul wins his choice of Birdman and Big Hero 6 on DVD or Blu-ray.

Congratulations to our winners, and thank you to everyone who entered.
