So I have the perfect solution: 1v1 Oscar Deathmatches

8 Nominees for each category; there will be four 1v1 death matches. Survivors move on to traditional Oscars format

Why would it be cool?

  • Ensures new talent comes into the industry every year, also injects money into the economy via new Combat Trainers Of The Stars
  • Creates a sense of ownership and high stakes; You like being a famous actor? How badly do you want it?
  • Promotes physical wellness across adjacent industries; You might be a brilliant CGI compositor but what happens when your studio nominates you to fight in The Oscardome? Bet you wish you biked to work now.
  • Bloodsport is a symptom of society in collapse, so it fits

Just workshopping here, any more thoughts? I really think I'm on to something.

    what you describe is the only way forward, such is the way of the dialectics

    pretty high chances the whole thing was staged precisely to fix the falling ratings
