AniNate Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Right now it looks like Rango is the only lock to be nominated. All the other contenders are hovering around the low 7s and any one of them could get left out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichWS Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 They might as well mail the Oscar to Rango's team a little early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobThePizzaBoy Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 My predictions for nominees: Rango Kung Fu Panda 2 Winnie the Pooh Arthur Christmas (winner) The usual surprise foreign film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 If Tintin gets nominated it will win.2011 is one worst years in animation, nothing stood out. Sad that his year there could be 5 nominations, last year could have used 5 nominations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 No, it's definitely better than 2006. Rango was awesome and I fully support it winning. And the other likely noms are certainly no slouches either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I haven't seen any of this year's animated films. Usually I see 1 or 2. It's a weak year for them.Hope to see KFP2 on DVD soon. Couldn't find it in Red Box the other day though- has it been released yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I agree that if TINTIN gets nominated, it will win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK007 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) Rango and Adventures of Tintin would be good nominees.KFP2 was nowhere near the original.Rio was insanely childish, Cars 2 was abysmal, Gnomeo, generic.Have still to see Puss and Arthur Christmas. Happy Feet 2 is a joke, won't even see it.edit: Forgot about Pooh.Nominees & chances of win1. Rango2. Tintin3. Arthur Christmas4. Winnie the Pooh5. Puss in Boots/indie filmsecond edit:Just to say that Toy Story 3, How to Train Your Dragon and Tangled were all above all these. Despicable Me and LOTG were better than everything either than Rango and Tintin. Edited December 4, 2011 by BK007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Rango is so overrated. I hope it looses. Rio was way more fun and a better movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travod Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Rango is so overrated. I hope it looses. Rio was way more fun and a better movie.Yea, the best part of Rango is the actual animation. Rio also had great animation and the story was great. So colorful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 Rio only had a better story than Rango for anyone under the age of 8. Rio was so annoying and childish, it had almost no originality, I'd be horrified if that won. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 http://www.annieawards.org/consideration.html10 nominees for Best Animated Feature, and 3 of them are independent.It appears to them that Tintin counts as animation.

AniNate Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm honestly not sure if Tintin has much of a shot at all of winning right now. More than 50 reviews in and it's still pretty far behind Rango. At this rate even Arthur and Winnie would be favored over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK007 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) You know what's amazing? Cars 2 has had like ZERO nominations.Of course Rango has been dominating but still mostly every other half-decent offering this year has got at least 1 nomination.edit: I lied, there's one for the Annies but aside from that even Happy Feet 2 and Rio have more nominations.

AniNate Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I hope that trend holds all the way to the Oscars. For both Pixar and AMPAS' sake, Cars 2 should not be nominated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 What's embarrassing is that there will be 5 nominees this year. That's nearly 30% of all animated releases domestically.The equivalent would be Best Picture having something like 70 nominees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) Well, to be fair, animated films on average are of higher quality than live action films. I remember there were a lot of people complaining that there weren't enough noms last year.This was just a down year for the medium; not much can be done about that. At least it's not as bad as 2006.
