At Kansas.com

Visit Kansas.com/entertainment for our guide to where you can see Oscar nominees on the big screen in Wichita.

With Oscar nominees announced last week, movie marathons, buttered popcorn feasts and Oscar debates should be well under way. While you’re defending your pick for Best Picture and Original Screenplay, don’t forget to enter The Wichita Eagle’s Oscar contest.

If you guess the winners in our categories correctly, you’ll be eligible to win prizes and bragging rights.

This year, all entries to the contest must be submitted online at Kansas.com/oscars by 5 p.m. Feb. 26. (The awards show begins at 6 p.m. that day.)

We will notify winners by phone or e-mail, so all entries must include a daytime phone number and e-mail address. Please include your name, too.

Participants in The Eagle’s Oscar contest agree to be interviewed and photographed if they are selected as one of the top three winners.

One entry per person. Entrants must be at least 13 years old. Employees of The Wichita Eagle or their family members are ineligible for the contest.

We’ll report back on the winners after the Feb. 26 awards ceremony. It airs at 6 p.m. on ABC and KAKE, Channel 10.

How does it work?

When you visit Kansas.com/oscars, click on the “play game” tab and choose the nominee you think will win in each category. Click the “Submit Your Picks” button to complete your entry.

Participants must register before playing.

Are there prizes?

Yes! In the event of a tie, the winners will be drawn at random from the ballots with the most correct answers.

First: $100 gift certificate, four movie tickets and a year’s subscription to Entertainment Weekly magazine.

Second: $50 gift certificate and four movie tickets.

Third: $25 gift certificate and four movie tickets.
