The Nominees


Howl's Moving Castle (Hayao Miyazaki)



Corpse Bride (Tim Burton & Mike Johnson)



Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (Nick Park & Steve Box)




Only a three nominee category, and for the first time in the short history of this award no Disney or Pixar. Hell, there's not even a DreamWorks. So, does that mean that Miyazaki will be able to win his second Oscar? And how do you feel about his work being seen here in dubbed versions? Why didn't they get Helena Bonham Carter to lend a voice? Everybody else did. Will Tim Burton get in the back door as an Oscar winner in this animated category? Should he only make animated features from now on and spare us from any more Planet of the Apes debacles? Will Nick Park and his characters Wallace & Gromit, who have won two Oscars in the Animated Short Subject category in previous years, translate that success into the new Feature competition?


Your thoughts?
