Ezen Baklattan Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Current Predictions: The Book of Life Big Hero 6 How To Train Your Dragon 2 The LEGO Movie The Tale of Princess Kaguya I'd argue that TBoL still has potential if The Boxtrolls' reviews don't pick up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spidey Freak Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Yup, Boxtroll's loss will be Book's win. Though will Kaguya manage to qualify this year? If not, then Boxtrolls may still eke out a nom over Song of the Sea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TServo2049 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I have been waiting four years for Song of the Sea. If it's as good as The Secret of Kells, I'd be rooting for it to at least get a nomination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the book of life having the best chance at getting in. I wouldn't call Kaguya certain. The Academy has been hit and miss when it comes to nominating Ghibli's.

TServo2049 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) I don't think Kaguya is certain, if only because the Academy has never nominated a Ghibli film that wasn't directed by Miyazaki. The only "hit and miss" to it is Ponyo not getting a nomination, and I feel that was down to how competitive and high-quality the 2009 slate was. (If Ponyo had gotten a U.S. release in 2008 or 2010 instead of 2009, I think it would have gotten nominated.)

AniNate Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Looks like two indies could get in. Boxtrolls and Book of Life don't appear to be contenders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Not quite, but reviews are weak enough that AMPAS could easily look elsewhere for a fourth and fifth nominee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lab276 Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 To think, Boxtrolls and BoL probably would've been shoo-ins last year. Well, no. MU would've been ahead of them and it didn't get in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I don't think it would be. Both would probably get extra points for being original. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXtacy Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) The Tale of Princess Kaguya easily the top animated score on metacritic with 90 and 100% on RT, studio Ghibli does it again. Probably wont win though Edited October 20, 2014 by eXtacy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) The Tale of Princess Kaguya easily the top animated score on metacritic with 90 and 100% on RT, studio Ghibli does it again. Probably wont win though The Tale of Princess Kaguya will easily get a nomination. I can see the Academy rewarding Studio Ghibli with the win since it will be their last movie for a long time, and there is also no Frozen juggernaut to go up against this year.
