 Best Animated Feature 2013 Nineteen films will compete for a nomination, which means there will be five nominees in the end. The contenders are: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2
The Croods
Despicable Me 2
Epic
Ernest & Celestine
The Fake
Free Birds
Frozen
Khumba
The Legend of Sarila
A Letter to Momo
Monsters University
O Apóstolo
Planes
Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion
Rio 2096: A Story of Love and Fury
The Smurfs 2
Turbo
The Wind Riseshttp://www.avclub.com/articles/here-are ... ar,105206/It is so strange to me an animation/live-action hybrid such as The Smurfs 2 is even eligible. Anyway, I predict: The Croods Despicable Me 2 Frozen Monsters University The Wind Rises Though I may end up replacing The Croods with one of the lower profile foreign titles. _________________   1.

The Wind Rises My current prediction as well, but I guess one of the lesser-known titles will bump The Croods off the list. Sadly. _________________The greatest thing on earth is to love and to be loved in return!

Re: Best Animated Feature 2013 Ernest & Celestine has a solid chance of getting in over The Croods or DM2. It's being released by GKIDS, who have gotten in other foreign animated films before (Secret of Kells, A Cat in Paris, Chico & Rita), and they're getting it a solid American version dub (includes Forest Whitaker, Lauren Bacall, Paul Giamatti and others). The only issue I guess is that the voting is being expanded to voters outside of L.A., which could make it harder to push smaller films like that to a nomination.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2013 If something is being bumped out, it'll be The Croods, I'm afraid. Mainly because DM2 is such a monstrous hit. I'd much rather MU or DM2 to be bumped out than The Croods, though.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2013 Darth Indiana Bond wrote: The Wind Rises? There's starting to be a backlash against it ... the main character makes planes for Japan in WWII. "It's like making a movie about the guy who made the ovens for Germany!" one critic said. Might be a great film; haven't seen it yet. But yeah, that might color some views. I'd give the odds to Frozen. _________________Buy my books! http://michaelaventrella.com

Re: Best Animated Feature 2013 Miyazaki is very anti-war though and critical of Japanese aggression. See the article in http://www.scmp.com/news/asia/article/1 ... m?page=all. And this being his last film does give it a fighting chance. If he hadn't won for Spirited Away, the film would have definitely been the frontrunner. _________________Recent watched movies: American Hustle - B+ Inside Llewyn Davis - B Before Midnight - A 12 Years a Slave - A- The Hunger Games: Catching Fire - A- My thoughts on box office

Re: Best Animated Feature 2013 I do not believe the controversy will spread much beyond a certain niche. The Wind Rises can still easily, easily win.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2013 But it's not better than Frozen or Monster's University, you see.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2013 Frozen is a phenomenon and Miyazaki has won before. I believe the Academy will reward Disney after Tangled and Wreck-It Ralph didn't win.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2013 Well, we all know that won't happen.
It looks to be Frozen, Monsters University, The Wind Rises, Despicable Me 2 and The Croods with Ernest & Celestine being a dark horse. I can only hope that The Croods won't get bumped off the list.
