We’re only a few hours away now, ladies and gentlemen. The Academy Award nominations are in the morning, so to help pass the time, here’s something silly for you all to enjoy. My short little Oscar poem I’ve done in the past, updated for this season:
‘Twas the night before nominations with voting in the can, not a creature was stirring, not even those pulling for the Fabelman clan. Our fingers are crossed, our predictions are done, here’s hoping Adam Sandler as a nominee shall come. The Academy has voted, we’re ready to see, regardless of whatever shall be. It’ll be a one of a kind set of nominees, you’ve had your warning, so go rest up…we’ll see you in the morning.
Stay tuned for the Oscar nominations tomorrow morning!
