2:33 PM Friday Aug 31, 2012

There will be more songs vying for Oscars at next year's Academy Awards.

The motion picture academy said there would be a minimum of five nominees in the original song category at next year's ceremony.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said the five nominated songs receiving the highest number of votes from music branch members will be up for the final award.

The voting process previously only allowed songs that earned an average score to be nominated.

Only two songs were nominated for the trophy earlier this year for the first time in Oscar history, with Man or Muppet from The Muppets winning the prize over Real in Rio from animated film Rio.

The 85th annual Academy Awards will be presented February 24, 2013, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.

I believe that the 2012 Oscars situation was to make Bret a winner. :;

I guess it wouldn't be the first time The Academy pulled some strings to make their favorite song win. I remember "
It's Hard Out Here For A Pimp"
winning the award several years ago. :#lol#:

This looks familiar to me, but I couldn't it find here or in The Muppets thread.

Anyway...

Yes, I had seen it before and it must have been posted somewhere, but it's good to see it again. :#lol#:
