I actually think this is going to hurt the credibility of the Annies. A film that many thought would get a best picture nomination and tied Beauty and the Beast for the most Oscar nominations ever didn't pick up one single Annie? They may revamp their weird voting rules after this. ITA James althou...

The one animated movie I struggle to watch is Dreamworks Spirit. I find it ploddy and pretentious. I saw it at the cinemas and it didn't bother me that half way through something happened and they had to pause the film to fix it. And then since I collect animated movies I bought the DVD and to this ...

That's disappointing news for me. Yes Kung Fu Panda was good and probably one of the better Dreamworks movie but after my first viewing I was left wondering why people were raving about it. WALL-E on the other hand totally blew me away. Just hope this doesn't mean Kung Fu Panda will take the OSCAR. ...

I know it's expecting a lot but I would love it if they would release the film unedited with at least the Cauldon Born sequence fully restored.

To compound the politics involved in all of this, check out this idiocy: http://www.variety.com/VR1117998897.html As an Australian preferential voting makes perfect sense to me LOL and I can see why it's a fair way for the Academy to determine it's nominees . What is really confusing is the comment...

According to wikipedia, here is why A Matter Of Loaf And Death didn't get nominated this year The late completion of the film, after 1st October 2008, put it out of the running for an Academy Award for Animated Short Film nomination until 2010, So from the sounds of it, it will be in the running for...

I'm pretty sure the same rules apply for the shorts. They must have had their debut in a cinema some time during the year.

I believe it was ineligible as it made it's appearance on TV and not in Theatres.

The Reader's success in the nominations comes down to two words - The Holocaust. The OSCARS just loves a movie that deals with that topic. I was surprised to see Kate nominatred for Reader instead of Revolutionary. I was confident that she was going to finally get her Oscar but now I'm not too sure....

Well that seems to seal the fate of Delgo for a non-theatrical release in Australia. I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed that it will at least get released on DVD in the near future. But considering it took Everyone's Hero 2 years to be released in Australia. I'm gonna assume that Delgo will b...

The teaser really doesn't excite me. Sure the movie might end up good, but that teaser does not increase my interest in knowing more about the movie. In fact, I found myself tuning out before the house arrived. At the moment my interest level in this movie, at the same point for reference, is with C...

I was cruising around Amazon's website checking out what animated soundtracks I needed to order since Australia is really slack with releasing non song soundtracks LOL. Anyway I noticed that apparently this movies soundtrack was released on the 8th July but when I went there today I sure it is curre...
