Options expand for flicks nominated for the Oscars

NEW YORK (AP) — More movies and cheaper options arrive online Tuesday for movie fans still needing to catch up on Oscar-nominated flicks. Of the 62 full-length movies and shorts nominated for any category, 45 are available in some form online. That includes animated and live action shorts released Tuesday by the cable channel Shorts HD. One more title, the best picture nominee “Fences,” comes out online Friday, leaving just 16 that you can see only in theaters.

Watching all 46 online will cost at least $173, assuming you already have subscriptions to Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime or HBO Now. Focusing on just best picture and the four acting categories will still cost you nearly $70, not including the monthly subscriptions.

It’s the cost of improving your chances of winning the Oscar pool. The good news is that prices have fallen for a few titles since last week.
