As Nora and I were reading through the recent 2015 Oscar Award/Academy Award nominees, we noticed that a few of the names and movie titles could be arranged into funny phrases. Even the “Academy Awards” themselves had a fun anagram — “DAYCARE WAS MAD.”

- SECRET STABS – Best Actress (3)
- OBSTRUCTING A STOPPER – Best Supporting Actor (3)
