In prep for the Oscars this evening, try “The Literary Oscar Quiz” on the L.A.Times book blog, “Jacket Copy.”

We only got 6 out of 10. Tell us your scores and, as a bonus, which of the above did NOT get an Oscar nomination.

UPDATE: We weren’t able to fool anyone — Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter is the correct choice. A different Lincoln movie caught the Academy’s eye.

    8 out of 10. And I’m going to say that Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter did not get an Oscar nomination. Maybe they should have made Android Karenina instead.

    I got 8 out of 10 right and not nominated is Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, there is a strangely fascinating interview with the director of the film on Studio 360.
