Ezen Baklattan Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Probably not Hotel Transylvania. The Pirates would get in before that. Maybe even Rise Of The Guardians if it's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezen Baklattan Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 It would be hilarious if HT actually turned out to be pretty good, based on that joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 Yep. Actually it could be pretty good but not what the Oscars are looking for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) I'm finding this year very mediocre for animation. The Pirates was the most entertaining for me so far. Brave was alright, Tangled was better though. I'm looking forward to seeing what Paranorman is like on Sunday, so hopefully some hope may be restored to me.

PatrickvD Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 FrankenweenieParanormanWreck-it RalphBraveRise of the GuardiansI think it will be between Paranorman and Wreck-it Ralph. Early word on Ralph is that it's absolutely spectacular. And seeing as how that word has yet to be used to describe ANY of the other animated features so far this year, I'd say Ralph will take it home. Frankenweenie has the best reviews of the year so far, but the Academy is not so into Burton, so he will be snubbed as usual.Rise of the Guardians has been winning things left and right, only because Katzenberg is shopping it around. He's back to his old ways. The last few times he set out to make an an animated film designed specifically to win an oscar... he failed. Twice. (Pocahontas and The Prince of Egypt). Variety gave Guardians a negative review, so that's not a good sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I think Frankenweenie has a better shot than ParaNorman. It's reviews were a fair bit better, and it's a B&W ode to old cinema, which the academy seem to love. Plus they didn't mind nominating Corpse Bride back in 2005.

Kvikk Lunsj Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I do not think Wreck it Ralph is in the academy taste. It movie about video games. The academy would rather have a film like Frankenwennie, Brave, or Paranorman to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 We should not discount the indie/foreign animated films, two got in last time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 I still have high hopes for Brave.You know I wouldn't be suprised if Mad 3 got nominated. (I think it should be but whatever ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forg Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I like Mad 3, it's in the same level of Puss in Boots for me so yeah it has a chance but I don't think it will happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Article @ In Contention says that 21 films have qualified for contention. Is that the most ever? I think a couple indie/foreign ones could sneak on like last year, maybe one could even win this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win, would be lovely but probably not happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
