If you’re feeling confident that you may win your office Oscar pool, the good folks at Mondo will try to lure that cash out of your pocket tonight with a series of Academy Award nominee prints.

The local print mavens have sent out images for the first three films: A new DKNG design for best animated feature Paranorman, plus Laurent Durieux takes on Philip Seymour Hoffman’s mesmerizing best supporting actor performance in The Master, and Mondo regular Olly Mos returns for best picture contender Les Miserables. Mondo will be releasing these, and a bunch more, throughout the ceremony broadcast: You’ll have to follow them on Twitter at @Mondonews to find out exactly when they’ll be on sale.
