The Oscars: Prep for Hollywood’s biggest night

Download your Oscar ballot and watch former and future winners with Comcast

From silent films to “talkies” (or from Shirley Temple to Quvenzhané Wallis), the movie industry is constantly changing. While it cost a nickel to see a movie in the old days, there are some things that won’t ever change: Hollywood’s glamour and the priceless feeling after watching a great movie. That’s why the Oscars are one of the top-TV events celebrated by 39.3 million people last year.

With the 85th Academy Awards this Sunday, Feb. 24, Comcast customers can prep with a selection of more than 10 nominated movies on XFINITY On Demand. The 2013 Oscar nominees available include:

Still reeling from Kathryn Bigelow’s big director win for The Hurt Locker or just can’t get enough of Forrest Gump?

For this year’s full collection, check out the On Demand guide on Xfinity’s TV Blog, where you can download your own Oscar ballot to follow along during the big night.
