Well, with my old computer I had to avoid too many add ons, but for about 6 months I have a new one, and so I care more than just a little bit about awards, too.
So the Awards-Tool is great stuff. Respect for the ones who did all the data.
So far I am mostly on the Academy Award, quite sure the other awards will be kind of "interesting" later, too, but the Oscar might cost me a lot of time.

So now using the tool with it's database, I got a shock!
Practically ALL Oscars are in the database with one year to early!

E. g. "Asphalt-Cowboy" (OT: "Midnight Cowboy") recieved several Oscars at the Academy Awards in 1970 - but they are all listed in the tool with 1969.

Am I the first one who recognized this?
If not: Do you care about that?

I do for one simple reason: Academy Awards are always around the beginning of April. And now - in case of Asphalt-Cowboy - I have to ask, how a movie could be honored in the beginning of April when it started at cinema at the end of May?

That's true in something like 95 % of the cases...
but there are some in between, where the year of the Award is the same as the year of the movie, and others sometimes are 2 or 3 years before.

So this way I think the assumption goes wrong that way:

When the headline says "Academy Award (19XX)"

The year in brackets should show the year of the Awards, not of the movie. Doesn't it?

I looked at the data file for the Academy Awards to see if there is any obvious connection to the movies release year, and I find that there is not. So I'll have to agree that it would be logical to show the award year.

If you want Tom to do anything about it, I guess it would be best to post a request about it in the official thread.
