Did Toy Story 3 get any Annie’s?
I know it lost “Best Feature” last year to HHTYD.
Sadly, there are too many issues with the Annies. I kind of gave up after Wall-E lost every nomination. But I’m sure that controversy has been discussed on this forum many times.
My pick for best animated feature: Rango, for bringing something refreshing to the animation table and having stunning visuals, and then Kung Fu Panda 2 for being a decent sequel with some interesting visuals as well.
Well I gues Pixar can’t win them all. it would get boring if they did.
That’s true, and I’m glad that HTTYD got recognised at the Annie’s last year when TS3 did so well everywhere else, but I hate how if one film wins, they win everything.
Like I said before, it seems like an unfair system. There’s a reason Kung Fu Panda won certain awards Wall-E was getting Oscar buzz for (writing, best picture, music, and even directing—LOL at that last one). KFP is one of Dreamworks’ best, but it’s not that good.
If I was part of an animation studio I wouldn’t be that biased in my voting, even if the studio was Pixar. Just sayin’.
I put my money on Puss in Boots and Kung Fu Panda 2 to win everything they’re nominated for in the Annie Awards.
I think the Annies are a great idea, but they’ve been rigged the past few years.
Most of us arn’t pulling for Pixar this year though. Most are hoping for Rango to in.
I think Cars 2 would be lucky to even get an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature. I also think Rango is one of the most deserving, and plus it’s very different from animated fare over the years. Even though the entire thing is an homage to westerns, it’s still very refreshing at times, and I welcome that.
I may see Cars 2 winning Best Annimated Movie in the Kid’s Choice Awards, because the voting is dine by kids.
