Oscar bingo: 2011 edition
Update: Looking for 2013 Oscar bingo? Get it right here.
The Academy Awards draw nigh! Due to popular demand, I've updated Oscar Bingo for 2011. Download and print twelve different bingo cards. Give one to each of your party guests and race to see who can mark off five squares in a row on February 27. The annual disclaimer still applies: My psychic powers are weak, so I have no idea if it will be possible to win ten minutes into the telecast, or if there will be a winner at all. Good night, and good luck.

I downloaded this, but it was for 2010. Fun idea!
Dang it, I pasted in the old link and thought I'd fixed it before anyone clicked it. You're too speedy! Try it again.
You have VERY speedy readers! lol

I was looking for ways to round out our Oscar party, and then found this. It's awesome--sooo much nicer than the official version. Thank you!
Hi Jessica - Hope you don't mind but we posted a link to your Oscars Bingo on our facebook page, facebook/mazehomestore. MAZE is a home furnishings store in Winnetka (we'd love to have you come visit) and online (mazehome.com), and we are sponsoring a gift suite at the Oscars this week, so I thought our followers would love your game. We are also giving away one of our celebrity swag bags ($150) and a leather handbag ($575) by Chicago designer Maggie Wilson. Your readers are welcome to enter, just need to post a comment on our facebook page by 5:00 central on Tuesday, March 1 (random drawing). Don't mean to advertise on your site and hope you can moderate this out if you don't approve, just wanted to thank you for the game and give your readers a chance to enter. Thank you for your constant inspiration! sara@mazehome.com
Hi! Thanks so much for the Oscar bingo cards. We used them last year and they were great. They are always hilarious and entertaining!
Wonderful idea, loved it! Thanks a lot for sharing it with us!
Hi!
I created a page that automatically generates as many pages you need and makes each one unique.
http://hiimandy.com/projects/oscars-bingo/
If you're tech savvy, you can download this zip and add custom spaces to the array (around line 47)
http://hiimandy.com/projects/oscars-bingo/oscars-bingo.zip
It'd be best to use Firefox or Chrome when you print it to get the page breaks right.
Hope this helps someone!

Someone already said this, but SO much nicer than the official version (featured on Nate Berkus). Great idea!

Thank you for the fun game! It kept the kids and adults entertained at our family Oscar-watching gathering.
Thanks, this definitely enlivened our Oscar night!
This was G-R-E-A-T! I just watched the re-run as had to work today (and live in the UK so staying up till 4am not an option really), and the bf watched the whole thing with me and even won at the bingo! Thank you for sharing :)
Used your Oscar bingo cards last night - total blast!!

All of my friends' significant others, who normally dislike awards shows, totally got into it too. Way fun - thanks!
Thank you for posting this! I used them for my Oscar party on Sunday and they were a huge hit! I blogged about it here: http://www.kathrynmcelroy.com/blog/2011/03/an-extravagantly-good-time/
Thanks again for your great bingo cards.
Hi, just wanted to let you know how much my 13-year-old and her friends enjoyed your Oscar Bingo cards last Sunday. It was her first Oscar party (mine too!), and she didn't really know how long and uneventful parts of the evening can get. Also, being young teens, they hadn't seen all the movies, and weren't even familiar with most of the actors. But they LOVED spotting Oprah, Buzz Lightyear, et al, hearing presenters flub their lines, telling their kids to go to bed, etc. It really livened up the proceedings, especially during the less exciting moments... Thank you for making our first Oscar party a success! Skimom3
Wow, that's great! Thanks for the story! :)
Are you going to do a 2012 version?
Definitely! Stay tuned.

So excited for the 2012 version! My family loved this game! And look, the Oscars copied you: http://www.oscars.org/awards/academyawards/partykit/bingo83.pdf

HAO: Thanks so much for the BINGO and ballots. They were a huge hit and already looking forward to next year. Perhaps a Red Carpet version?
Hello,
I'm a French blogger and my subject is parties, adults and children, friends and family.
I have adapted your gorgeous idea with some bingo cards about our French ceremony. We call it "Cérémonie des César". I made hypothesis with French films. I Thank you very much for giving us all this. Best. Claire.
Partageons nos fêtes
