Anyway, how much do you know about the Oscars? Not much I guess, nobody needs it anyway. But i'll give you a little info. Thanks to my winkie(short from for wikipedia)


The 1st Academy Awards ceremony was held on Thursday, May 16, 1929, at the Hotel Roosevelt in Hollywood to honor outstanding film achievements of 1927 and 1928. It was hosted by actor Douglas Fairbanks and director William C. deMille.

Since 1950, the statuettes have been legally encumbered by the requirement that neither winners nor their heirs may sell the statuettes without first offering to sell them back to the Academy for US$1. If a winner refuses to agree to this stipulation, then the Academy keeps the statuette. Academy Awards not protected by this agreement have been sold in public auctions and private deals for six-figure sums
That's it, all you need to know about the oscars. Useless facts that will not help us in anyway.
