Submissions for Best Animated Feature Oscar - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

Ccook50 · 11-09-2007, 12:55 PM

12 theatrical animated feature films will be submitted to the Motion Picture Academy for 2008 Oscar consideration. Only up to three films will get nominated. The submissions:

Alvin & The Chipmunks (due out Dec. 14)
Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters
Bee Movie
Beowulf
Meet The Robinsons
Persepolis
Ratatouille
Shrek The Third
The Simpsons Movie
Surf's Up
Tekkonkinkreet
TMNT

The three I think will get noms:
Ratatouille
The Simpsons Movie
Surf's Up

Who will win:
Ratatouille

But don't hold me to it. I'm the same yutz who said Philadelphia and the Yankees would be in the World Series.

Well, I'm pretty sure The Simpsons will at least get nominated. That movie was the definition of funny.

It would be great to see The Simpsons Movie get nominated. I can definately see Ratatouille getting nominated (and possibly win).

I'm rooting for the Aqua Teens. Not much chance of success, but they're definitely my favorites.

It'll be interesting to see which film comes on top. Ratatouille may be a favorite, but favorites don't always come out on top, and as you saw last year, Pixar doesn't always win. This should be very competitive this time around.

It would be a lot more competitive if they had MORE THEN 3 SLOTS! I mean come on, how stupid is that? Every other category for movies, TV shows, and best script and all those other ones get at least 5 slots for possible winners.

There is a lot of good animated talent in those 12 and to only put up just 3 is freaking idiotic as hell. That's the only award I even care about anymore. The rest are given to the same 5 films NO ONE sees except for one and that's it.

Oh PUH-LEEEEZE! it will be Disney that wins - they always do! it is natural law in the screen world!

I am surprised that Alvin and The Chipmunks is even being considered at all, it's not a full length animated feature. It's a live action/animated picture.

Invader Bloo · 11-10-2007, 11:37 AM

YAY! Shrek won't win this year!
I see this being what we'll see:
Ratatouille (Which will probably win)
The Simpsons Movie (Which I want to win)
Bee Movie or Surf's Up

Mr. Marshmallow · 11-10-2007, 01:46 PM

I personally haven't seen most of those movies, the only ones I did see are the Aqua teen Hunger Force movie, Simpsons movie, Ratatouille, and TMNT. To be perfectly honest the movies I think SHOULD be in the stupid ass small 3 available slots are Ratatouille, TMNT, and Beowulf.

Now I have not seen Beowulf nor do I plan to but from what I see the movie looks like a visual feast of kick ass animations, and I trust Zemeckis seeing as how he is a kick ass director. I believe Ratatouille and Shrek the 3rd have the best chances of winning (despite I've heard Shrek was craptacularly bad).

I thought TMNT was fantastic and I hope that makes it in the top 3, I felt that was such a better constructed movie in story, characters, and voice acting. Surfs up looked completely stupid if you asked me. It looked like an unintelligent mess of cheap, uninteresting characters and a plot that sounds superbly lame.

However, even though I'm pretty positive Aqua teen will not even be in the top 3, if it does, I will laugh my ass off uncontrollably because if anyone has seen that movie its hilarious to think a movie with THAT kind of content is in nominational status with the likes of Pixar and such
