Still, might be hard to get in. My current guess for the 5 nominees (with Turning Red as the predicted winner).

It’s still a competitive year but it’s probably in the top ten in terms of chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Marcel's reviews are Pixar-worthy but probably too much live action to qualify here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Very good sign for Turning Red. Also a good sign for Marcel the Shell with Shoes, but I'm not sure if it will count in the animated category. Or if it does count, will enough people realize it's a work of animation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Thinking that since Lightyear isn't doing so hot Disney might direct their attention to just pushing Turning Red and Strange World (provided that is well-received) and LY's slot gets taken up by I guess The Bad Guys or something similar. Still don't think we'll see more than two indies this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contrary, I think this is more likely Turning Red Pinocchio (Del Toro) Wendell & Wild My Father's Dragon Inu-Oh One Disney, two Netflix and two indie/foreign. I don't think The Bad Guys is getting nominated in any case. Just my impression, I haven't seen the movie, but it's not that big of a hit and there are movies that got better reviews.

cannastop Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 The question of who will win would be a lot more interesting if Spider-Verse 2 was released this year... but it won't be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 https://variety.com/lists/2023-oscars-predictions-ranked-best-picture/best-international-feature-2023/ What variety thinks at this point. My main takeaway is that Marcel counts as animated.“Lightyear” (Pixar)Angus MacLane, Galyn Susman“Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio” (Netflix)***Guillermo del Toro, Alexander Bulkley, Corey Campodonico, Lisa Henson, Gary Ungar“Marcel the Shell with Shoes On” (A24)Dean Fleischer-Camp, Andrew Goldman, Elisabeth Holm, Caroline Kaplan, Terry Leonard, Paul Mezey“Turning Red” (Pixar)Domee Shi, Lindsey Collins“Wendell and Wild” (Netflix)Henry Selick, Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Jordan Peele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morieris Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 ....Is Turning Red even eligible when it didn't play in theaters? Did the old rules of a theatrical US run go back into effect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannastop Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) If Marcel the Shell With Shoes counts, this is my prediction: Turning Red Pinocchio (Del Toro) Wendell & Wild Marcel the Shell With Shoes My Father’s Dragon In order of likeliness of winning. edit: I'm genuinely confused now if Marcel will be eligible for this category.

cannastop Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) I wish there was a chance for an animated feature to win 3 or more Oscars. I don’t think it’s happened before. Plenty of animated movies have won 2 Oscars. Realistically, this would be a movie that wins Animated Feature, Song, and Score. But there have been nominations for animated movies in Sound and Screenplay, and even Best Picture in the past. I guess that kind of sets the ceiling at 6 Oscars for an animated feature, unless they get more creative in honoring these movies. Edit: And visual effects, though this seems to go to mostly Stop Motion movies. So maybe 7 Oscars as the ceiling.

cannastop Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) I realize that three of my predictions are Netflix movies. Del Toro’s Pinocchio, Wendell & Wild, My Father’s Dragon. Is this feasible? Edited July 7, 2022 by cannastop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingdong Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 I’m not sure I’ve heard a lot of the movies you’re mentioning here, but SeaBeast reviews are through the roof so add that in here. I feel like The Bad Guys might be a shoo in as well and might take Lightyear’s slot in the nominees. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
