Movies.com Launches the First Annual Movie Site Awards
Movies.com recently announced their First Annual Movie Site Awards. Submissions are being accepted through June 25th. Here are the qualifications according to their site:
In order to qualify for award nomination, the candidate site must involve a movie, actor, actress, director, or screenwriter associated with a theatrical release in the last six months of 2003 or any time in 2004. Sites are considered "Official sites" if they are directly operated by a movie studio, distribution company, actor, actress, director, or writer, or their authorized and designated agency.
Nominees will be selected by Movies.com from all candidacy announcements received by Movies.com no later than 7/7/04 via the defined submission process. Candidates with demonstrated early grass-roots support on the Movie Site Awards message board will be more likely to be considered as final nominees.
Looks like Movies.com is trying to build some traction at their message boards. At any rate, it's free and linking from your pre-existing site can't hurt -- especially for indies. Surprising though -- no separate indie category....
