Given my age, I cannot officially endorse any drinking of any sort. So I will say that this game is for the 21+ readers out there (or if you are overseas, 12+ most likely). If you're underage, then I guess you'll just have to have a fun night with grape juice or something. Use your imagination. Many people have made Oscar drinking games in the past, but I would like to think that mine is at least slightly original. Here are the cues to drink. Feel free to add in any of your own:
- Billy Crystal makes a joke about how old Christopher Plummer is.
- Sean Penn addresses a humanitarian crisis.
- A montage honoring old movies.
- A montage honoring a bunch of movies that came out in the past year that nobody liked but still get a mention at the Oscars anyway.
- In their acceptance speech, an award winner tells their kids watching at home to "go to bed."
- Someone makes a joke about George Clooney.
- George Clooney says something really funny and charming.
- George Clooney makes a reference to a humanitarian crisis or a political cause in his acceptance speech.
- Someone makes a joke about Meryl Streep.
- Someone appears on stage in a "War Horse" costume.
- A dance number dedicated to silent movies.
- Someone makes a joke about how many movies Ryan Gosling has been in this year.
- Sean Penn goes on stage saying the previous joke about Ryan Gosling wasn't funny, and that he is a talented and valued actor.
- A nominee mouths something at the camera, or makes a Jim Halpert face.
- Two talented actors get on stage and perform a terrible bit of scripted publicity for their upcoming movie.
- Someone makes a joke about the amount of Jews in the room.
- Someone makes a joke about Republicans, to which the entire audience cheers.
- Fox News runs a new story about liberal bias in Hollywood the next day (this one is for the morning after).
