forg Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Looks like to be a close battle this year! Again, never dismiss the indie/foreign animated flicks they could easily pull a surprise win 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) I think Guardians may be out. Freaking Madagascar got better reviews. Who would've seen that coming?Final predicts:BraveFrankenweenieParaNormanThe Pirates! Band of MisfitsWreck-It RalphThe indies don't seem very strong this year, and I'm thinking if Ponyo couldn't get in in 2009, it'll be a tough task for Up on Poppy Hill with a worse reception and less prominent.distributor.

Blankments Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 With Guardians disappointing, the race will definitely be between Ralph and Frankenweenie. Both Tim Burton and Disney Animation have never won Oscars, and they both seem like great movies to award them with. It'll be close, though I'll be rooting for Ralph.

It'll be close, though I'll be rooting for Ralph.Ralph's the only Hollywood animation I loved as didn't think was dreadful this year. So I definitely want it to win, however I do really want see Tim Burton win an Oscar if only for the speech he'll give. Or they could give it to an indie for once this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Burton's speech would be seriously awkward considering he can't say four words without mumbling and doesn't care about Oscars. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forg Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Rooting for Ralph! But I liked Frankenweenie as well so will not complain about that. I think this an exciting race with no frontrunner this time around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I would squat down and shit my pants if Frankenweenie won. Seriously, the successful crowd-pleaser over the artsy-fartsy B&W stop motion animated flick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Frankenweenie has pretty good momentum going right now. It took the LA, NY, and Boston critic awards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really depends on SAG and the DGA. Both of those award ceremonies pretty much decided 2011's Oscars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I feel Wreck-It Ralph's loosing momentum right now Might have to start rooting for a indie to win again if the only studio animation I liked can't win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
