The litany of "For Your Consideration" ads that precede each year's Academy Awards are just about the saddest display of desperation in modern marketing—which is saying something.

Luckily, these are fakes, lovingly crafted by pop-culture blogger "vehiclesshockme" at Oh No They Didn't. Originally posted in December, they've been circulating around the Internet on a boxcar of believability, likely thanks to being initially bundled with collections of actual "For Your Consideration" ads.
