They threw Best Picture at Moonlight just so people would stop calling them racist. I hope ratings keep plummeting.

instead we got two movies crammed in one year, one of them completely spoiling how the movies are made, leaving a bad aftertaste.

Maybe I'm too optimistic, but this could actually benefit non-mainstream cartoons:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but getting nominated for an Oscar makes you a member of the Academy, right? Look how many times Disney/Pixar have been nominated and awarded. The animation branch of the academy is overrepresented by the Walt Disney company! No wonder we got both Moana and Zoo this year in that category.

By letting other people not employed by Disney decide the nominees (directors, screenwriters, foreign filmmakers...), we might actually get more diverse animated films nominated by pushing Disney out of competition; no more Disney/Pixar bias when it's time to vote!

Even for anime, Your Name's core plot was trite. The things it had going for it was its rendering and the plot twists, but once you get past those, its just another "boy meets girl" deal that you could watch done better in too many other anime.

I don't get how Moonlight was a good character development movie.

The main character is basically the same as he was at the beginning, except he's swole and gay

From what I've heard Funimation didn't know how to run a campaign so it may not have even been seen by the judges. And there's no way it would have won anyway. And it's not like the awards mean anything anyway.

Nobody would ever say these things if they weren't evaluating animation movies with special Disney-derived standards.

>>94877009
Plotfags and originalityfags are the worst and understand nothing about cinema.

>>94877049
There's nothing generic about it, and high school is not a genre or plot, it's a setting. It's not even about high school specifically.

>>94877087
Japanese movie. By definition it can't be weeaboo.

>>94877129
Ghibli movies are the most mainstream anime there is.

I'm fine with Zootopia winning, but Kimi no na wa should've gotten the nom.

Lego Movie not getting nominated the year before was the most infuriating bullshit.

If animation was treated the same as live action, a movie like Zootopia would never win. People just have a whole different set of standards for animation. Animation has never been approached as real filmmaking in the US.

Movies like Your Name should just be competing in the best foreign film category instead.

Animated films in 2017:

Wolfwalkers
The Breadwinner
Coco
Mary and the Witch's Child
Despicable Me 3
Loving Vincent
Captain Underpants
The Night is Short, Walk on Girl
The Lego Batman Movie

Animated movies from 2016 that could be nominated in 2017 because they'll get an English release and/or simply weren't nominated last year:

In This Corner of the World
Ballerina
A Silent Voice
Your Name
The Girl Without Hands
Another Day of Life

The actual nominees will be shit though.

People shouldn't care about ANY award ceremony, really. They all end up being popularity contests or agenda-pushing contests.

We certainly shouldn't give a shit about one that mixes in commercial with art and has now changed the rules to negate most art.

Haven't seen it but my mom hated it so much she's convinced it was some kind of practical joke. She's ranted at length about it multiple times.
It's pretty funny. I think she appreciated Moonlight more

The people who NOMINATED in years past were the animation branch, ie. those who actually gave a shit about animation and the variety it can present as a medium.

The Academy as a whole are the ones who do this bullshit

which will surely result in a list of only mainstream nominees, UNLESS nearly all of them abstain

Bruh they haven't even finished production on Wolfwalkers. We're not seeing that movie for another two years at least.

Also Your Name was eligible last year, and is therefore ineligible this year.

While I agree with >>94872105 in that the Oscars are a fucking joke (and the Moonlight fiasco was really the perfect storm), here are my predictions:

>>94875396
>Coco (will win because of The Mouse)
>The Star
>The Breadwinner
>Mary and the Witch's Flower
>Loving Vincent
B-listers:
>Captain Underpants
>The Emoji Movie
>The Boss Baby
>Ballerina/Leap
>The Girl without Hands
>Birdboy

I'm not counting on Despicable Me or Cars because sequels never get in. If anything the nominations are more interesting than the actual Best Mouse Award.

Could Your Name be submitted for another category this year? I could be like City of God, which failed to get nominated for Foreign Language but got noms for other categories the following year.

My fast-selling predictions for the nominees this year are:

>Coco (Winner, because Pixar)
>The Breadwinner
>The Lego Batman Movie
>Loving Vincent

And a fifth nominee that could come from literally any one of these movies:

>Cars 3
>Despicable Me 3
>The Lego Ninjago Movie
>The Big Bad Fox
>Mary and the Witch's Flower
>In This Corner of the World

It really is a wild card race for this category this year, since I have no idea in which direction the nominees will flux (blockbuster kiddie flicks vs. indie "artsy-fartsy" / foreign fare).

Loving Vincent has the backing of being a film many years in the making and being the first of its kind, while The Breadwinner is coming from a company whose first two films have been nominated for the award.

The formula is always the following:
>Two big-name studio productions (Zootopia/Moana)
>One original anime (The Red Turtle)
>Two mid/small passion projects (Zucchini/Kubo)
Coco will obviously be a big-name (and the winner), Mary and the Witch's Flower has a safe lock on the anime, and it's easy seeing Loving Vincent and The Breadwinner as the arthousers.

Per standard, that only leaves the second bigwig. Of course, shit could very well be *all* bigwigs because of the Academy's animation division getting relegated in the nomination process. Only time will tell.
