Gettin' Revved Up

Here are a few Oscar sites to help you along your way this week before the big shoo:

Vanity Fair 2011 Hollywood Portfolio catches the best of the best for the 17th year in a row. I've only missed out on one in the past 17 years, and I'm still mad. If you don't want to shell out the cash, check out the gorgeous snapshots here.

Turner Classic Movies celebrates the Academy Awards every year with their 31 Days of Oscar. See the best of the best, unedited, and commercial free. TCM is the best movie channel on cable, premium or no.

The Official Oscar site offers you a ballot for your party, daily Oscar trivia, plus those splashy commercials starring this year's hosts.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences offers insight into the academy, a list of the past winners, and gives the lowdown on all that other "stuff" (for example, that film preservation that Scorsese is always on about) the AMPAS does, besides that big, flashy show once a year.
