Make $2,021 for watching 21 of Oscar's best picture winners

Do you like Oscar-winning movies? If so, you could make $2,021 for watching them.

So, you probably won’t be earning an Oscar anytime soon. But you could earn $2,021.

Not a bad consolation prize.

And all you have to do to make the cash is watch a few Oscar winners — say, 21 of them.

CableTV.com is prepared to show a movie fan the money just for sitting down for over 46 hours to catch all of the best picture winners from 2000-2020 and share your thoughts on the movies on social media.

The website — which helps consumers find the “best, most legit deals in TV, internet, and streaming services” — will give one lucky film buff one month to watch:

2020 – “Parasite” (132 min.)

2019 – “Green Book” (130 min.)

2018 – “The Shape of Water” (123 min.)

2017 – “Moonlight” (111 min.)

2016 – “Spotlight” (129 min.)

2015 – “Birdman” (120 min.)

2014 – “12 Years a Slave” (134 min.)

2013 – “Argo” (130 min.)

2012 – “The Artist” (114 min.)

2011 – “The King’s Speech” (119 min.)

2010 – “The Hurt Locker” (131 min.)

2009 – “Slumdog Millionaire” (123 min.)

2008 – “No Country for Old Men” (123 min.)

2007 – “The Departed” (151 min.)

2006 – “Crash” (115 min.)

2005 – “Million Dollar Baby” (133 min.)

2004 – “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King” (201 min.)

2003 – “Chicago” (113 min.)

2002 – “A Beautiful Mind” (140 min.)

2001 – “Gladiator” (171 min.)

2000 – “American Beauty” (122 min.)

There are a few requirements. First of all, you need to be 18 or older and eligible to work in the United States. And that’s about it.

Considering the winner will be getting $2,021 for their efforts, that should work out to about $43.86 an hour. While not Denzel Washington or Scarlett Johansson money, it’s still pretty good coin.

In addition to the cash, the winner gets a $100 Amazon gift card for film rentals (or purchases), a $100 Grubhub gift card, a replica of the Oscar statue, a red carpet runner and four boxes of microwave popcorn.

To apply, write up a 100-word essay telling CableTV.com why you are the best person for the job. Please include your first and last name, email address, your favorite movie, where you usually watch movies, a link to your most-used social media platform, your age and your legal resident status.

Good luck, film buffs.
