And the Oscar Submissions Are In, With Two Surprises

Posted on November 5, 2011 by Charles Kenny Leave a comment

Coming via AWN, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has released the list of 18 films that have been submitted for consideration in the upcoming Academy Awards. They are as follows:

  • “The Adventures of Tintin”
  • “Alois Nebel”
  • “Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked”
  • “Arthur Christmas”
  • “Cars 2”
  • “A Cat in Paris”
  • “Chico & Rita”
  • “Gnomeo & Juliet”
  • “Happy Feet Two”
  • “Hoodwinked Too! Hood vs. Evil”
  • “Kung Fu Panda 2”
  • “Mars Needs Moms”
  • “Puss in Boots”
  • “Rango”
  • “Rio”
  • “The Smurfs”
  • “Winnie the Pooh”
  • “Wrinkles”

The interesting thing about the list? Why it’s the inclusion of not one, but two films that were made with motion-capture, a method the Academy deemed ineligible for the animated feature category. Of course, this is just the list that has been submitted, not the list that has been ruled eligible.

Other than that, the good news is that we should see 5 nominees for the category this year. Which 5 do you think it will be? Answer in the poll below!
