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

I normally pride myself on rooting for the underdog - not on this occasion, however. Ratatouille all the way!

I'm pretty confident that Remy and his pals will make it through to the next round, and fingers crossed will take home the gold from there. It's true that last year's selection for Best Animated Feature was a bit of a surprise, but then again the Pixar offering was Cars, which had attracted a much more lukewarm reception than their boys are normally used to.

The other nominees I either haven't seen or didn't take particularly strongly to. I've already penned an extremely long-winded review of The Simpsons Movie in the relevent thread, so I'll keep this brief - it was a more agreeable time-passer than I'd been expecting, but still struck me as something of a potboiler. I personally don't deem it as Oscar-worthy, but that's just my opinion, and if popular outlook is anything to go by it'll no doubt be at least nominated. I think I speak for a lot of people, however, when I say that Shrek the Third has no business whatsoever even being invited to the Oscars.
