Which one will win the Oscar?

We know they're going to nominate two foreign ones that have zero chance of winning just for "muh diversity." The rest is pretty much a toss-up, but Pixar will win.

I don't see The Breadwinner on there.

The one made by Disney.

>Thinking Cars 3 will win the Oscar
Um, did we forget Coco? I'm not personally interested in it, but that seems more like the one the Academy would like/think should get it.

>>93920757
>10/16 of the best animated feature are disney or pixar
Its probably going go be coco. I know mlp winning would be next to impossible regardless of actual quality, but I still want to believe, just for the glorious shitshow.

Emoji Movie

>>93920757

Ponies

just to watch /co/ burn

>>93920757

Lego Batman was great, but we all know fucking Disney will get its usual handout.

>>93920757
Coco, any other opinion is wishful thinking

>>93920757
I feel like it would be a huge deal if mlp won, being the first 2D animated movie to win the oscar in 15 years, which could bring back 2D animation in theaters. Its not happening though. It'll be written off as "lol girl movee" and pixar will win again.

>>93920757
How would the academy pick the winner of the best animated feature if no disney or pixar movies came out one year?

>>93921595
Did something happen with Barney or something cuz I keep seeing shit about the fanbase or something

>>93924233
It was submitted last year and got snubbed.

>>93924368
The last non-Disney/Pixar movie to win was Rango 5 years ago.

>>93920757
Whichever one is made by Disney.

>>93920757
Lego Batman, it was specially crafted to please normalfags who don't read comics

>>93920757
Either a Disney or Pixar movie, like every year.

>>93921031
>We know they're going to nominate two foreign ones that have zero chance of winning just for "muh diversity."
That's not even a guarantee this year since the Oscars changed the nomination process. Before it was voted on by a select committee of people who actually knew shit about animation but they changed it so it's just everybody. So it will probably just be nothing but the five highest grossest movies of the year.

>>93920757
Coco

It doesn't matter how good it is. Coco will win. It's going to be another "Brave" situation.

>>93920757
The one by Pixar with "muh latino diversity"

So what would make /co/ burn more the EMoji movie winning or MLP

I personally WANT MLP but I know it has fucking chance cause bias is rampant in the oscars ironically. The thing that is SUPPOSED to be nonbias as possible.

>>93925536
Who knows? Maybe that'd work in favor of non-mainstream animation. After all, shit nobody cares for like Spotlight and Moonlight get nominated AND win all the time.

>>93920757
I honestly can't see Coco winning unless it's unexpectedly amazing. I can't see anything else winning either even though Lego Batman and Captain Underpants were good. Maybe this is the year the foreign film wins

>>93920757
That Mexican Pixar thing. This is the "let's give Disney an award" award.

>>93929401
I'd like to remind you that fucking brave won one year.

>>93929358
No it won't. Oscar Committe have a ridiculous amount of contempt for animation.

One even said "why do we nominate all this chinese crap?"

>>93929638
i geniunely hope that faggot gets cancer, not one just ALL of them at once.

Better yet, just off the entire commitee. Tell em all their taste in films are shit right as they die too

Do you know one of em ALSO just ploped they're kid in their and didnt even WATCH any of the fucking films?

I will

We have to find alternative animation that can beat Disney and promote the hell out of them, getting awards in festivals and praise from critics. The Academy will have no choice but to watch those movies and vote accordingly, or further lose credibility.

>>93930238

well the only thing that stands a chance of beating anything disney is the ponies

and trying to get /co/ on board to promote that is like asking an autistic person to stop being autistic

the only other alternative i can see is Leap

Leap and Rockdog are Hollywood? I thought they were foreign?

>>93932020
the fact that fucking ROCKDOG...is in the running AT ALL...is fucking sad.

>>93929358
Most of the academy are actors that don't like movies where they can't see a live action face emoting on the screen, think that saying lines into a mike is the easiest gig in the world, and have no respect for artists that draw shit or do anything that isn't directly related to acting or directing. And that's not even addressing the whole "cartoons r 4 kidz!" thing.

>>93929723
I think that might actually have been the same one. I know there were several that said "i didn't even watch the movies lol but my kid liked this one" but I really do think "chinese fucking shit" and "i left my kid while I made phonecalls" mighta been the same guy.

>>93920757
The one where the boy falls in love with a girl and is unable to confess but multidimensional cellphones

>>93930457
If Funimation plays its cards right, they can get In This Corner of the World nominated next year.

>>93930238
They're not going to lose credibility. Normies eat their shit up and also don't care fuck all about animation.

>>93932171
It's not a subject I can fully understand or appreciate, but I also feel really bad for the technical categories like soundmixing and stuff where I'm pretty sure a lot of the academy also doesn't know shit about the topic and abuses their power to vote by just picking the movie they like best for totally unrelated reasons or were bribed the most to vote for instead of considering the actual category at hand.

I remember one guy admitted he hadn't even watched any of the submissions for the foreign category but still voted for one that had a poster he liked that he'd passed every day on the way to work, and that was literally the only thing he knew about any of the nominations.

>>93932216
Leap?

>>93932395
Keit-ai or something

Coco or Ferdinand. Also still fucking wild to me that Disney isn't doing Ferdinand.

I know who I'm rooting for at least. Doesn't matter how much of a chance it stands, it's a good excuse to talk about the studio anyway.

>>93932373

The academy just needs to purge every current member they have there and replace them with new blood that know shit in their respective categories.

>>93932236
Don't you remember the whole envelope fiasco this year?

Samurai Jack

>>93932670

You could pinpoint the exact moment when the hearts of those guys that worked on La-la Land broke into tiny little pieces.

>>93920757
Boss Baby
Why?
Because it had the biggest marketing budget despite being a total unfunny failure.

Oscars are just an extension of the marketing department. The simpsons made fun of this back in the 90's.

>>93932214
I really hope he gets a fork drilled into his urethra.

a dull fork, one with ragged edges with salt glued onto it.

>>93932623
That won't help much because the entire academy still votes as a whole instead of keeping the category voters separate. So if like 10% of the academy is actually involved in, say, animation, 90% of the ultimate voters will still give no fucks about and have no understanding of it.

It's also important to note that most of the voters in the animation category itself will still be employed by Disney and other big name studios in some capacity, so even among them there's a skewed bias. There's gonna be virtually no representatives of indy or foreign studios simply because the event takes place in Hollywood and therefore everybody is pretty much either a Hollywood resident or wealthy enough to fly in for it.

Saw it at Florida Film Festival. Fun visuals. Humor is light, but enjoyable. Characters are likable. Liked the stories in some of Dash Shaw's comics more. Ending scene is odd, feels unnecessary.

Very much follows the indie/mumblecore aesthetic. Doesn't stand a rat's chance with mainstream awards. GKids will be promoting Breadwinner a lot more. My Entire High School is basically the studio's Phantom Boy to last year's My Life as a Zucchini, if that makes sense.

So /co/ as impossible and retarded it is in terms of its likeilhood of winning, how would you react if The Emoji Movie won AND it was as bad as you think it will be?

>>93920757
Whatever Disney Film they like the most but keep in mind that the Academy doesn't really care about animation
http://www.cartoonbrew.com/award-season-focus/proof-that-oscar-voters-are-clueless-about-animation-109456.html

Personally I want MLP to win just so the world can burn.

>>93920757
Cars 3 would actually have a shot if there had never been a Cars 2. It's a really good movie, but people are ignoring it because of its predecessor.

>>93933253
>Personally I want MLP to win just so the world can burn.
Just getting a nom would do that. I'm still butthurt the PPG movie didn't get nominated, so I'd consider this revenge.

Okay so I honestly think the only movies that have any REAL shot are Despicable Me 3 cause MINIONS FUNNY

LEGO BATMAN cause LEGO

and Boss Baby cause Babies and big budget

granted I personally think Lego batman was a good film, and while I want MLP, Captain Underpants or Leap to win for multiple reasons I know they dont have a chance in hell cause of the voters being fucking shit faggots and thinking animation as a whole is garbage.

If MLP won /co/ would never recover from the butthurt.

>>93920757
>Nominees are my little pony the movie, despicable me 3, nut job 2 and the emoji movie

/co/ and /co/mrades would be fine. The mods might have to work themselves to death trying to make sure nobody discusses the winner for Best Animated Movie on the cartoons board, but frankly they deserve it.

>>93933419
Do you know anything about this category? If Disney's nominated, Disney wins. Fucking Anomalisa lost to Inside Out.

>>93933487
Global Rule 15 is retarded, anyway. You can discuss Pokemon on /a/, /v/, and /tv/, in addition to /vp/. I think I've even seen a thread on /co/ before.

>>93933492
But like all the Disney Films here SUCK...like REALLY SUCK... I mean well Cooc aint out yet but still You'd lose your credibility completely even in in normies eyes if you voted for the Disney films here

>Nominations
Coco
The Star
Ferdinand
The Breadwinner
The Girl Without Hands

Coco

All in all will be pretty lame. I really want Cartoon Saloon to win one of these times, maybe the Breadwinner might have some virtue signalling points.

>>93933504
>Global Rule 15 is retarded
Retarded people need retarded rules.

If people weren't retarded, the Bible wouldn't have to specify "thou shalt not kill."

>I was thinking about killing.
>No Bob, no! Remember what the Bible taught us!

>>93933553
I just want the one /co/ thread back. If no one will discuss the cartoon on the /mlp/ board, maybe people will talk about the cartoon on the cartoon board. The closest thing you can get to show discussion on /mlp/ is arguing about starlight glimmer, which normally end up being barneyfag-esque shouting matches with image macros and buzzwords.

>>93933492
>Inside Out
Inside Out was a solid 7/10. Not necessarily automatic win material but not egregious given the way it is.

I'm personally most pissy about Song of the Sea losing to fucking Big Hero 6.

I thought it was pretty appalling that Brave won over Wreck It Ralph.

Book of Life by Disxar.

I mean Coco, of course.

>>93933965

I remember Frozen creators saying shit about their own movie too, this one won an Oscar as well.
Last year Zootopia won't cause kids love animals. And because it was about "muh racism". I think.

>>93934314
i thought it would be shit from the image but i watched a couple trailers and it looks neat

>>93932745
The Oscars are fucking dignified compared to the Grammies or other such rewards.

Imagine the Oscars but the winners aren't bland oscar bait films that are well produced but artistically sterile, but generic blockbuster crap memed to death by the media.

Basically imagine a world where Captain America Civil War beats Spotlight for Best Picture.

>>93920757
If Disney's output this year forces a choke I could see Lego Batman taking the win if they don't get snubbed of a nom entirely.

>>93933210
Give up on my animation dreams and probably kill myself.

>>93920757
Coco deserves to win of course. I already like Coco very much.
Lego, Boss Baby, Emoji, Minions either deserve nothing, and they should make way for Pixar with no complaint.
These literal meme-tier movies shouldn't gain any awards in the first place.
On a different note, pseudo Ghibli's newest movie, called "Mary and the Witch's Flower", flopped so bad, so they won't even get a nom this year.

Why the literal fuck does /co/ give one iota of a fuck about this joke of an award created solely to lock away and keep animated moves out of best picture as possible?

It's a joke of an award that treats animation itself as a genre instead of a medium.

Of the 14 winners, fucking 11 belong to Disney/Pixar.

The people who vote for this """""award""""" has likely not even watched all of the nominations assuming they've watched any of them at all.

It's a nothing award that will remain a nothing award that Disney keeps buying for the next 15-20 years until our generation that actually has a respect for animated films and don't dismiss everything that's a cartoon as kiddy shit enters the academy.

I think they changed the voting rules b/c they saw how shitty this year was going to be for American cartoon films, and they feared the animation branch would pick nothing but "chinese fucking things." and lower the Oscar telecast's ratings.

So, they went ahead and allowed normies to vote, continuing the industry's representation at the awards.

>>93944574
Discussion about best animation at the Oscars should really just be laughed off this board

If the Academy doesn't really give a shit, why should we?
