'Don't Call Me Oscar' Tumblr Has Kids Reenact Scenes From Oscar Nominated Films

The Academy Awards category for best picture is often chock-full of dramatic, heavy, and tear-enducing pictures. This year's contenders are no different, with films like 12 Years A Slave and Dallas Buyers Club tackling difficult and controversial issues. So when a Tumblr account called Don't Call Me Oscar emerged in 2011, parodying the year's best pictures by adding a small child to the mix, it was a welcome breath of fresh air.

This year, the kiddos are back, giving actors like Leonardo DiCaprio, Bradley Cooper and Jared Leto a break, while they reinvent the actor's infamous scenes.
