IMDb kicks off the Road to Oscar

But it's good to add more voices to the pot. Give it a look if you want some bubble gum fun to pass the time. There's a trivia section, a "STARmeter" and, of course, message boards.
Red Carpet District is Variety contributor Kristopher Tapley's attempt at making sense of the ever-expanding glut of film awards coverage. He's been on the beat for six years. Email
