>Oscar nomination >17.97 billion yen Kyoani EPIC BTFO

It's gonna lose to a disney film anyways.

>>149528513
I love how even you hold KyoAni on a pedestal.

>>149528550
Definitively, even if this movie is amazing it will loose. It will never win to Disney.

That's not to say i wouldn't love to see this movie win. But i don't see it possible. Not after the year Big hero 6 won over so many better movies in the same category the same year. I'm still bitter.

But it's not like the Oscars really matter.

>>149528550
Don't worry, Trump's win will make all the current Oscar deciders kill themselves.

>>149528593
Let's be fair, they were the only ones relevant that published a movie at the same time.

Not that it'll win, not that this movie's even good or that I'm even excited about it, BUT I think it'd be pretty sweet to have Keit-Ai win an Oscar.

>>149528634
Considering the reason Frozen won in 2013 was because the judges literally couldn't be assed to watch the films sent to them, so just picked the one they watched with their family I'm sure this will be the case.

Seriously, the Academy Awards are a fucking joke.

>>149528688
The fact that it could be nominated is good enough really, it might make people watch the movies. So in itself the nomination would matter more then a win in my opinion.

>>149528705
The Academy Awards is a giant joke honestly, i still enjoy watching each year but i don't really care anymore who wins in the Animated category since it seems like Disney will always win.

And yeah i remember that actually, didn't they all even say that they didn't watch the other movies or am i remembering something from a dream i had? In any case it is pretty ridiculous, their job is to watch movies and they don't watch all of the ones nominated.

Submitted for consideration is not the same as nomination.

>>149528705
The judges are only required to watch 1/3 of the films and can pick from that. Kind of retarded.

>>149528818
The people who vote are literally not even required to watch all the nominated films. I think international films is the only category that they do have to have watched the movies in order to vote.

Just because it's submitted, doesn't mean it makes the cut. My prediction:
>Zootopia
>Finding Dory
>Kubo and the Two Strings
>The Secret Life of Pets
>Moana
Zootopia will probably win because of it's pro diversity message. Or Dory could upset because Pixar.

>>149528818
No you're right, they were all interviewed on the subject, and literally none of them bothered to watch the films.

At the very least I recall one judge abstaining from voting because they didn't want to vote for something when they didn't have the time to see all the movies. But the rest voted based solely on the one movie they watched (Frozen) or based on the one movie's name they knew of (Frozen).

Seriously, it was pretty fucking retarded. I would say this is to be expected, but you'd think something as prestigious as the Oscars would have its shit together.

>>149528513
>seventh highest-grossing film of all time in Japan. The film is also the fourth highest-grossing Japanese film in Japan, and the fourth highest-grossing anime film in Japan.

Damn, the nips really love this mediocre film

>>149528932

Honestly they should just cut animation since the judges just treat it as a joke category.

Rebellion was also submitted for Oscar consideration but was disqualified for being inappropriate for children. Yet Anomalisa, which featured a sex scene to rival Team America, was accepted. So just imagine trying to get Akira or EoE passed!

>>149528550
Disney will win an Oscar of course.
Because their animators are superior to Jap Anime, and outshine Japs at every step of the way.
Only manchild autistic weebs complain like "Why muh anime isn't nominated!? Academy is so phony and its result is rigged!"
These autistic weebs should kill themselves right now.

>>149528932
You'd think they would have their shit together, but it just shows how little seriously they take the Oscars. I'm sad that it's like that, i'm looking forward to seeing the nominations for this year atleast.
Hoping to see a nomination for Kubo and the two strings, fantastic movie. So more people can go and see it, because it's a damn shame not alot of people saw that movie.

When it comes to Kimi no na wa i hope it gets nominated so people go out and see it atleast.

>>149529106
>inappropriate for children
Isn't Sausage Party in consideration? The fuck

>>149529106
>>149529182
It's mainly because the perception that anything traditionally animated is "for children" in the film community in America. So because anything drawn must be for kids, Madoka can't qualify because it is inappropriate for children.

Yes, it is retarded logic, but what the fuck do you expect from those pretentious assholes?

>>149529182
He's just memeing, it was submitted, but didn't get enough votes to make it to the nominees

>>149528818
Pre 2000s before social media, YouTube, fast internet and memes the AA was entertaining and fun. Spirited Away won best picture at the AAs when Normies and their kids gave a damn about anime before the tidal wave of Italy pandering post 2004?2005? So there's that.

>>149528513
It would be downright tragic if a glorified Radwimps AMV like this were to be nominated for an oscar over Hokusai.

>>149529245
I think that is part of the problem also, people in the west think animation is for kids. It's the main reason why a lot of good animated movies don't do well in the boxoffice. People see animated movie poster and go " oh for kids then i can't be arsed to see it " and miss out on great movie experiences.

>>149528513
it's a consideration for an oscar nomination you retard

>can't watch it at the cinema
>can't watch it from some digital distribution platform
>can't watch it on tv
>no (decent) torrent out

it's like they want to encourage piracy

>>149529279
If recall correctly, the only reason Spirited Away even won that year is because Disney didn't have any major releases at the time. So they put all their eggs into that basket just because they didn't have any other films to push for the award.

So even having Spirited Away win the Oscar is a bit bittersweet.

>>149529362
Who's distributing Hokusai in the US anyway? The inly reason Kimo no Na made it the Oscars was because Funi shilled the shit out of it to the academy

>>149529408
Western theatrical release is Q1 2017.

>>149529408
I'm seeing it in the cinema on the 18th.

>>149529412
They had Lilo &Stich, but decided to focus all their shilling on Spirited Away instead because it was better oscarbait

>>149529405
Where is silent voice's consideration for an oscar nomination?

>>149529379
The G rating is on its deathbed because adults won't see those movies alone. PG is less stigmatized. Frozen, Inside Out, and Finding Dory should have been G rated.

>>149529437
GKIDS

>>149529522
It has to be shown at cinemas in LA for at least a week before 2017? but there are no plans for that.

>submitted for consideration
>even close to a nomination
Shin Godzilla has more chance of an Oscar nomination than this.

>>149528513
I want to see this in theatres. But I don't want to be seen as a weeb

>>149529522
No US release

>>149529562
It doesn't matter all Funi cares is it gets nominated so they can put it on the BD box

>>149529447
>>149529465
can't find any eta for my country (and maybe that's a good thing after all because they dubs everything here)

>>149528513
I don't understand why you guys care about this.

It won't get nominated, and even if it does, it won't win. No matter what films get nominated, the Disney one will win, whichever it is.

>>149529523
Can narrow it down to people in general (hah) being retarded. Not going to see a movie based on its rating has to be the most stupid thing i have heard. Maybe there is a reason every trailer these days show almost the entire movie, people don't go to see movies before they have been spoon fed the entire plot beforehand.

>Another shitty thread that autistic weebs believe their "muh anime" is superior to Disney

You guys are just delusional.
There's no chance Jap Anime will win an Oscar.

>>149529699
I saw it the other day and it is very good but there's no way it would be nominated for an oscar.

>>149528513
that was just bad luck that KnK had to air the same time as this

even though it did well it didnt get as much attention as it couldve because of this

>2 Disney movies
>1 Pixar movie
Yeah, good luck Japan, lol.

>>149529728

Apparently the anime could be the coming of God and it still wouldn't win because the judges don't watch any of the movies anyway.

>>149529818
I don't think it could've ever garnered as much attention but if it was given 300+ screens and proper marketing, it would have easily competed with Hosoda. Besides Your Name is a easygoing flick whereas A Silent Voice is designed to make you want to die.

>>149529928
That's irrelevant. If an anime wins some important international award it has a pretty big chance for an Oscar.

I think you replied to the wrong thread, m99

In the first place, animation was developed mostly by Disney.
Toei Animation imitated what Disney did, just like "monkey see monkey do".

Genga, Sakuga-Kantoku, Bijutsu, all those structures are from Disney.
So if you like Jap anime, just show your respect for Disney.

The Academy Awards is a joke and is as rigged as the American election. It's just a big promotional to make more money. The big guys are paying for a big commercial.

People should just ignore it and treat it like what it is, a joke.

It'll definitely get nominated at the very least.

That's not true. None of the modern Pixar/Disney movies ever win anything, yet they always win the Oscars. All they care about is if the judge's kids found it funny.

>>149530160
>All they care about is if the judge's kids found it funny.
Pretty much, like that time the judges admitted to not having watched any of the other movies, so they just voted for Frozen because their kids liked it.

It's still the same, even if a movie wins a ton of other awards, the Disney/Pixar one wins by default.

>>149528513
Anime can only potentially win an Oscar if it's in the "foreign film" category. It just can't beat Disney - they hold way too much influence over the Oscars to lose to foreign animation companies.

Really, they need a new "foreign animation" but of course Disney won't allow it.

>>149532145
Or in the Best Original Score category. Still mad they did not submit >>149529106 for that category and instead tried to go for Animation when everyone knows that Japanese can literally only win that if their name is Miyazaki.

>>149530160
That's because for animation only short films matter.

>>149529106
Pretty sure Akira would have passed considering Disney had literally nothing at that time. It's adored in the west even more than Miyazaki.

>>149532568
> It's adored in the west even more than Miyazaki
Assuming you mean today, fuck no. Everyone regardless of age (unless you're like 80, maybe) knows Miyazaki and shows him to their kids. Akira is like NGE or GitS tier.

Seriously, if Square-Enix have brain they will put Elsa as summon or whole world in KH3 and they will have best selling part.

Meme magic

>>149528513

Jews don't appreciate anime or manga outside of Ghibli, wasn't it Rebellion that got laughed at by the Oscars by them or some other film I'm thinking of.

>>149532874
Frozen and Spirited Away are the only animated movies that are over 200M in Japan.
And both won an Oscar.

Only autistic weebs complain about Frozen, because they won't realize Disney's rich history that has both hand-drawn and CGI masterpieces.

Anyway, I can't imagine Your Name ranks with this GOD-tier.

In my opinion, these Ghibli-fags should've thanked the Academy Awards for the reason that at least they got a nomination, before complaining.

Yes, but Frozen isn't one of them. It made money, sure, but a masterpiece it is not. It's a Frankenstein horror of a movie that obviously changed plot direction halfway through and ended up bogged down with useless songs and subplots that go nowhere.

From what we know of the process for nominations, a lot of members who vote don't even bother to go see films in the animated category because of the persisting "for kids" stereotype. So when it comes to nominations most of the submissions aren't even filled and the voters just tick Disney or Pixar out of brand recognition rather than based on the quality of the actual film.

>>149528917
