Best Animated Feature 2016
My predictions
1. Zootopia 2. Kubo and the Two Strings 3. The Red Turtle 4. Moana 5. Finding Dory
Zootopia is still the front runner. Some other foreign thing will probably knock out either Moana or Finding Dory.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2017
I'd say Zootopia will probably win.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2017
The Angry Birds Movie deserves it, but Kubo will win.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2017
If Dory, Moana, and Zootopia all get in, I think they'll cannibalize each other and Kubo will squeeze away with the victory.
I think Sausage Party would've been a contender if it weren't for the exploited workers controversy.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2017
I'm not a fan of Kubo myself, but at least it set out with some ambition. The rest of this year's animated slate is pure unadulterated milquetoast (though I haven't see The Red Turtle yet and my expectations for Moana are slim to none).

Re: Best Animated Feature 2017
Sausage Party is getting a major push from Sony. They had the cover of Variety's print edition this past week with an FYC ad.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
I think Finding Dory is missing a nomination. Kubo, Zootopia and Moana will be the American films that get in. The Red Turtle should make it. So another foreign film should get the last slot.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
There is no rule that there are 3 US nominees, LOL. Dory is getting in.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
I would not be so sure. Red Turtle seems a likely pick and with Your Name receiving a qualifying run in the States, I think it is more than likely to get in as well. That leaves three slots open.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
I could really see any of the three win. Zootopia seemed the front runner, but Moana is receiving a similar level of general reception, so it's possible the Disney vote could be split and Kubo could take it.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
Dory is shit, and it is a sequel. It isn't getting in. It is so utterly uninspiring on a technical and creative level.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
Sequels have a history of getting in and even winning. That's not a valid reason.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
Dory is getting in. It's a great reviewed Pixar film starring Ellen and is about a disability.

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
If it gets in, Pixar paid a hell of a lot.

That's more like DWA to go and "buy" an Award because their movies don't get nominated.

Dory will not and should not make it in. Overrated

Re: Best Animated Feature 2016
I'd think Sausage Party has a better chance than Dory.

This has to be the toughest year for this category in its history. I love it!
