The Rules:

All voting and nominations will be done through Private Messages to myself.

When nominating, please have a minimum of 3 nominations per category and a maximum of 5.

When voting for a particular actor/actress, please indicate for which movie, as we have several actors who have worked with Ewan more than once.

Only one vote per member will be allowed.

The nominations will begin today, and will end on January 1st. I will give some consideration for the holidays if any of you feel this nomination period should be lengthened.

Voting will begin the day after the nomination process has ended, in order to give myself time to sort the nominations. Voting will end on January 16, 2004 and the winners will be announced on January 18, 2004.

Don't forget to visit the
Fan Forum Movie Awards thread and support Ewan over there as well [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

If you have any questions, please PM me [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Enjoy and let the nominations begin!

Ooooh, this sounds like fun. Unfortunately I haven't really seen many of his movies.

Oh well. I'll work on some nominations.

Couldn't we ask questions here? [img]smilies/look.gif[/img] It might help keep the thread busy and answer common questions for all ... a FAQ, if you will.

I haven't seen any of his interviews (living in a foreign country sucks), can I skip any categories where I can't possibly nominate anything?

I didn't know who to vote for in Best Supporting Actor in a Television Show or Miniseries so I skipped it.

If you can't vote for a certain category such as Interviews or Miniseries, then you can skip it and your votes will still count [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] If we don't get enough nominations for a specific category, that category will be dropped. I will let you know when I post the list of nominees on January 2nd [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
