> The great myth about this game -- and why some people don't even play -- is that you have to have seen the movies to have a chance. It helps, of course, but really all it takes is an eye on the industry buzz. Catch a few of the skillion online articles anticipating the Oscars, and you're in the game.

Hey, I watch a lot of movies, follow the buzz, etc. and I still don't play in the nominations game because it's such a crapshoot. I definitely think having seen the movies is helpful for the second half of the game when you guess the winners, but the nominations are based solely on buzz, it seems.
