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.

    Next year is going to manufacture a controversy to top this year's controversy, sounds like. :brrrrrrrrrrrr:

    It might even become an expected thing for bazinga brains to tune in for, like how they already tell each other they watch "The Big Game" specifically for the commercials. :so-true:
