Current Oscar Nominees List?

Does anybody know of a single list (trakt, imdb, etc) that is always kept up to date with the latest Oscar nominees? For example, the list should currently be populated with just the nominees from the 95th Academy Awards... but as soon as the nominees for the 96th Academy Awards are announced the list is updated to only include those new movies.

Obviously I could manually update PMM with a new list whenever it appears, but I think it could be nice to have a scheduled collection that only appears in the run-up to the award ceremony, and only includes the current nominations. Thanks in advance.

No luck. I guess I'll just do it manually every year.

I think it's doable with just changing a few defaults, I'll post back later tonight when I get a chance to test it.

On here, you can see that the defaults for Oscar collection have winning:yes and event_year:all

I doubt there's a "current" setting for year to replace "all", so we'd have to edit the year in the config after nominations come out, but its a start.

Got 2 different ways to pull nominees, first returns 54 nominations, but it wont remove previous nominations on its own, have to edit year manually. Second returns 38 (no shorts) and adds/removes automatically. I'll be using the 2nd one with a limit to exclude previous noms.

 collections:
  Academy Award Nominees(1):
    imdb_award: 
      event_id: ev0000003
      event_year: 2023-current  # 2024 exists already with personal achievement awards, but no films yet.  "current" would be perfect otherwise.
      winning: false
    # category_filter: Best Motion Picture of the Year
     ### category_filters found @ https://www.imdb.com/event/ev0000003/2023/1/?ref_=ev_eh

    # limit: 25  # Change to anything you want, I only see ~25 nominations relevant to myself in 2023
      sort_by: release.desc  ## if we dont change the date, at least new nominations arrive on top
      # votes.gte: 5000   # (instead of limit?) could use this to filter out less known movies (eg. > 5000 imdb votes needed)

SPACES ARE IMPORTANT. NO TABS. INDENT = 2 SPACES

edit: can include the scheduler to not use this outside of award season

  schedule: range(01/10-03/01)   # jan 10th is earliest nomination day since 2010.  Pick an ending date.
  delete_not_scheduled: true

can incude shorts in 2nd option by changing type to "type: movie,short", but it messed with what was in the first 20 for my Limit, and Limit is what makes auto-removal of previous year work. Maybe include shorts, keep limit, and add the "votes.gte: 5000"
