Well, I'm fairly disappointed that [i]Nightcrawler[/i], [i]Interstellar[/i], and [i]Gone Girl[/i] got nearly no recognition. It's starting to feel like the nominations are more and more reserved for films that tell empowering, historical stories rather than having a solid overall quality (which I feel like [i]12 Years a Slave[/i] was a good example of). 

Other than that, my guess is that [i]Ida[/i] is definitely going to win the Best Foreign Film, and that Richard Linklater is deservingly going to take the win for Best Director. I'm also really interested to see who'll be Best Actor in a Mini-Series or TV Movie, and I honestly don't know who to root for.]]></content>

looks =/= is

Maybe the superhero isn’t in it much because it’s about the struggle of an actor trying to be taken seriously in a culture that only talks and cares about superheroes. Ironic, huh…]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[In my opinion, it's really only a competition between TLM and HTTYD2. Big Hero 6, while still an enjoyable movie, had nowhere near the depth and emotion that TLM and HTTYD2 had. It's just a fun film with a good message and all that stuff, but nothing that truly blew me away in terms of animation or story/characters. If it were to win, it would only be because of bias towards Disney, which would be a terrible shame. TLM and HTTYD2 are both excellent films. Big Hero 6 just doesn't stand against them.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[It's gonna be a close run for Best Animated Feature. It's most likely going to be between TLM, HTTYD2, and Big Hero 6. I've only seen The LEGO Movie, but as it's one of my favorite films ever, I'm just naturally hoping that it wins. I'm doubting that Big Hero 6 would win as Frozen won last year, but then again, Pixar did win four years in a row. And if HTTYD2 won, it would be the first win for Dreamworks since 2001 with Shrek (that's excluding 2005's Wallace in Gromit, but I don't necessarily see that one as a Dreamworks film.)

But still...go LEGO Movie.]]></content>

Was hoping for more. :/ [/quote]

Sadly, I don't think Hollywood respects animation enough to ever nominated an animated film for anything other than best animated film, especially after the whole deal with the best animated picture category of the Oscars last year. I will be seen dancing in the streets with joy the day that animated films are treated the same way as live action films by the mainstream, but I fear that day may never come.[/quote]
Sad but true.  There have only been three animated films nominated for best picture.  However I think that overall animation has surpassed live action.[/quote]

As far as the Oscars are concerned, only three animated films have ever been nominated for [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Award_for_Best_Picture#Controversies]Best Picture[/url]. 
"Beauty and the Beast" got darn close to winning. It was a serious Oscar contender back in the day. 
Unfortunately, no other animated film has ever gotten as close to winning since.

Now, as far as the Golden Globes are concerned, there are three animated films that have won for [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Globe_Award_for_Best_Motion_Picture_–_Musical_or_Comedy#Animated_Films]Best Picture[/url].
"Beauty and the Beast"…."Lion King"….and "Toy Story 2."

I don't know if it will ever happen, but one day, I hope a feature length animated film will win the Best Picture Oscar.]]></content>
