How to Have a Pre-Oscars Viewing Party

Before the Oscars air this year, celebrate the awards ceremony with your own pre-Oscars bash. Read on to find out how to plan your own pre-Oscars viewing party.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Small faux Oscar statues
• DVDs of at least 4 2008 Oscar nominated films
• DVDs of the 2007 "Best Picture" Nominees
• Oscars trivia
• Snacks
• Drinks
• Hat

1. Send out an evite to your friends, inviting them to your Pre-Oscars Viewing Party.
2. Head to a novelty shop, costume shop or toy store and purchase small Oscar statuettes. Head to a grocery store and buy snacks and drinks of your choice.
3. Type up your Oscars Trivia Game. Choose 10 questions that relate to Oscars trivia. For example, "Who won best actor in 2007?" "What film won best picture in 2006?" Give 4 multiple choice answers for each question.
4. As guests arrive, hand them each a trivia sheet. Tell them to write their names at the top, then hand them back to you once they've finished answering the questions. Allow them to help themselves to snacks and drinks you've provided.
5. Write the names of the DVDs you purchased for viewing (2008 noms) on pieces of paper, then throw them into a hat. Have a guest pull a title. That will be the first film that will be viewed.
6. Tally up the results of the trivia game and give the results at the end of the first film. The guest with the most questions right will receive the DVD set of the 2007 Oscar "Best Picture" Nominees.
7. Continue to party while playing the films and snacking. Ask random questions throughout the night and give out the statuettes to those who answer correctly.
