Re: Oscar Noms Announced Tomorrow!

SotS became an instant favorite for me the moment I saw it, I loved the art and the story and the soundtrack was one of those 'get home from theater buy soundtrack now' things. Kaguya I felt the story was a little thinner but the art more than made up for it. HTTYD 2, I liked it but I felt like there was a pretty vocal crowd on Tumblr in particular that were in the mood of 'anyone but Disney or it's rigged' and they had decided HTTYD 2 was the more deserving winner because that was the one other nominated movie they'd seen. Which bugged because if you're going to complain about the Academy blindly voting for Disney without seeing the other nominees maybe see the other nominees yourself before declaring which one got robbed.

Yeah, I agree with you. I really think SotS should have taken it, but if not that, Kaguya was a close second because of really amazing art, which was clearly the bigger draw of the film. It's not meant to have a super complicated story, which is fine.
But HTTYD2 pales next to both of them on every level, imo. And it's kind of sad, because I would have liked for the recognition to have gone to that studio, to encourage them, and maybe break the stupid Disney monopoly on animation Oscars. But nooooo.
And yeah, people who only saw HTTYD2 making such a huge fuss is super hypocritical.
