Get ready to rage at the Academy again

First off, there's a difference between casual viewers like us and people who vote on awards and whose entire job is film.. Second, you're retarded and probably trolling so that's why I left calling you retarded until the end of my post, retard.

The perception of their ignorance changes whether they were sent a screener copy or not. I'm not even sure if those a still a thing but if they weren't, there wasn't any real way for them to watch Mirai unless they saw the limited theatre screenings UNLESS screeners were distributed.
Bad bait

This is shota bait isnt it?

Well I just read a few minutes ago that there is a requirement that voters must watch every film in the short film category before voting so I can at least say that they're voting honestly.

Apparently, the only categories where you don't have to watch every film are Best Picture and Best Animated Feature. So always take those awards with a grain of salt.

They have lives.

If that's true, that's actually even worse that films are getting nominated with no way for the voters to properly see them. What the fuck is wrong with the Academy.

THIS IS THEIR FUCKING JOB.

It doesn't take much effort to watch 5 movies

I guess it's okay for movie reviewers to not watch the movies they're rating too, then?

Based on some of the absolute fucking nonsense I've seen in reviews lately, it's quite possible that they don't.

Isle of Dogs was a disappointment and I like Wes Anderson's movies a lot.
I didn't see Ralph, but of the 4 others? Spider-verse all th way.

The Only good thing about Mirai is that ya boy Tatsuro Yamashita did the soundtrack.
The movie got hit hard by "Star Trek One Syndrome".

Yep and they never do it.

Heck surprised Disney didn't when by default since they usually check that box without thinking.

So, these people are just normal people right? Not actual critics or something.

That's not true. All members can vote across all categories. Wanda Sykes literally admitted to voting at the last minute and only picking options that had "Black" in it.

After seeing how stupid they are I would not be surprised if they actually thought Spider-Man was Disney because Marvel movies are usually Disney movies.

Only people on Yea Forums could be mad a studio other than FUCKING Pixar wins the Oscar. Island of Dog's and Spiderman were both really good movies and it's a step forward for the academy to let either of them win.

You say that and then bash critics who's entire job is to score a movie on RT.

Oh no doubt.

They're film industry people in what's basically an exclusive club. I don't think they get paid or anything like that.

Mirai should not be even nominated. It was some lesson about kid learning how to have a sister or else. It was token anime movie.
Smallfoot deserved a nom for being a funny animated movie which teaches about the origin of religion and traditions.

That's disturbing.

>working job years and years judging stuff
>see crap coming from a mile away thanks to years of experience
They did their job by knowing which movies to watch and which to not. Hype is part of cinema too

not if these are still the standard the judges hold themselves up to. The Oscars are a sham.

Man, you are going to have to accept at some point that you are not very good at trolling.

It's better than, "My daughter told me Frozen was really good so I'm voting for it"

We're only seeing two of the votes. There's probably still plenty with that logic.

Except they straight up admit they don't watch all of them. It's clear the Pixar short won because of its brand and not necessarily because of its quality.

Best one yet

The proof is in the pudding. Good movies do good.

Guy. Just give it up. This isn't even funny, it's just... sad.

The problem is the Academy is by majority actors. Imagine the majority of actors outweighing the opinions of veteran sound designers and editors because they only watched one of the movies.

you missed the entire point of what OP is saying.
here's a (you)

>agree with me without question or you're part of the problem of people that don't think for themselves
I mean, when your stance is "people should be informed about their options before making a decision" there's not a whole lot of room to intelligently disagree.

Source plz?

>Rage at the academy because most adults don't watch cartoons and just vote for whatever their kid saw or they've vaguely heard of

What are you, twelve? That's literally how most of these things go. Nobody has time to see everything, or even be interested in seeing most of the screeners.

Academy members are people just like everyone else and to most people cartoon category is completely uninteresting ans boring. It's like sound design or editing, unless you're into that and know how to judge it you just wing it.

Oscars are bull and one should not get so perplexed about them at any time. Chill out, my man.

And here we see a textbook example of the retarded contrarian, which has been thriving as of late.

Why see ANY of the movies in ANY of the categories? Just vote based on the name alone.

Remember when Yea Forums used to do end of the year awards? Same fucking deal. I barely knew wtf 75% of the nominations were. That's also why Forever Evil won the best comic category.

Am I the only one who appreciates this joke? Come on Yea Forums don't get baited so easily

Anime reps have been padding for years, user. Same with the "artsy" rep, in this case Isle of Dogs. The judges know it and don't usually bother watching them.

The real nominations are always two or three CGI movies by Disney and some other studio like DreamWorks or Imagination.

That's the retarded conformist aka "critics/masses are always right and any opinion that disagrees with them is objectively wrong".
But yes, their kind has been thriving as of late.

They are too busy trying to be woke to get people to watch them. They don’t realize that all people were asking for in the first place was some fucking integrity in their own awards and not some dog and pony show.

This would only matter if spider-verse wasn't the best film out all nominated by a country mile.

Isle of Dogs isn't even a good Wes Anderson film why do you keep sucking its ass?

At this point it’s likely they throw those types of films in so it doesn’t look like Disney boxed the category.

based on animation alone the spiderman movie deserved the win. male member is right that all the other movies didn't do anything new with animation.
also who the fuck cares about the fucking plot of an animated movie? no one

Nah none of these do it for me. The angriest one I ever got was the review where he said he didn't bother watching the film and just left his kid in the theater until it was over.

Can I see it? Actually, does anyone have some of the previous years?

If this guy is a troll then he is a genius.
>Best animated cartoonbsince shrek.

>Yeah it was a show trial but he was probably guilty anyway. So why changing the system?

Why doesn't the Academy have viewing parties where voters can catch up on films they haven't seen? They could make an event out of it. Maybe they do and these are just the ones that are too "busy".

Mirai was boring in every sense of the word. I really wanted to like it but the moment things became interesting it would abruptly finish.

I like you.
People calling it bait are retarded. Not all banter is bait.

Also, dont they get the films to watch or something?

How the fuck do you get paid to vote on something if you havent seen the films.

Ho many films are there in the oscars total? They cant sit in their office and fire through a few a day.

>Get paid
>To vote in the Oscars
You don't even know how Oscars work do you? Academy Members are not paid to watch movies, they work in the industry itself and all 5000 or so members get to vote in most categories, that's why you see those "For your consideration" ads in movie magazines and why studios bother sending all those screener DVDs.

Not their fault. I never saw the movie either and most people wouldn't have heard of it regardless.

Animu movies don't come out in the states for like a year it so.

To be fair, Spider-verse deserved to win this time round.

Why the fuck would I be angry about Spiderverse being nominated by oscar idiots, for once they at least picked something that's visually experimental rather than Disney garbage or latest twee nonsense from hack stop-motion/anime auteur #23497259

Maybe not.

Why are the Oscar awards for animated films more accredited than the Annie awards that are specifically for animation?

Attached: annie-awards-2016-770x341.jpg (770x341, 30K)

Why do people pay attention to any animation awards besides Annecy?

>more accredited
[by who?]

(This is a Wikipedia tag, not a Jew reference.)

Isle of Dogs isn't that great. The novelty of a Wes Anderson stop motion movie was already done with Fantastic Mr Fox.
Spider-verse did offer something visually new with the way it used selective ramping, It's just that trolls here have decided to turn that into a meme about frame rates and PS2 games.

I agree that spiderverse deserved it based on visuals alone, but you know they didnt vote for visuals.

i thought it was yet another yeti movie

These seem like reasonable opinions. The first one skipped Disney/Pixar trash and voted for the one of the two actual contenders which she liked better. The second one gave reasonable appraisal of 4 movies out of 5 and skipped the Japanese film, which was poorly received even in its own country.

>yet another yeti movie
What? Name one other.

Maybe if it were children voting in this category you would get people that watch them all. Is this the moment where you babies realize that cartoons are for children and any self-respecting grown adult would not watch any that they didn’t have to?

At some point you're going to have to admit that you're not a very good troll.

Mirai could be the worst movie ever made and it still wouldn't make it right that they voted without having seen it.

I think Forever Evil broke me. It's so dumb, like a bad Marvel event, but people couldn't stop sucking it off.

Is it better or worse than Twelve Forever?

Shrek at the time was super creative it was the original "shit on classic disney". The problem is that everyone did it later, including disney.

Ban big-studio movies (Disney, Pixar, DW, Blue Sky, etc) and they’ll have no choice but watch the films and vote on merit rather than brand recognition.

Or they would just vote the same way this guy did:
>I didn't get around to seeing any of them. You want the truth? I shouldn't have voted, but I did. This is bad, but here's the power of advertising: everywhere I looked, I saw pictures of this stupid carcass — whatever the fuck that was — and I thought, "That's a cool-looking thing." And I fucking voted for a movie based on the dead whatever it was in the ad thinking that it looked cool. [laughs]
>MY VOTE: Leviathan

It's a lost cause. Plus it would result in even less viewership than the Oscars already have because turns out people only watch the Oscars if they know the movies involved. And you just know they're getting money from Disney anyway. It does not make financial sense to kick them out.

Sure, it would restore credibility to the Academy, but does anyone honestly think they care about that?

Wait, aren't they required to actually watch the movies before they judge them? What's the point of having a jury when they don't make their decision based on the movies they've seen?

pretty sure the oscars' voting system being complete garbage is an universally recognised fact

Apparently they're not. Maybe they used to be required and that's why they trick people into thinking they still do but at some point that must have stopped.

It's kind of funny in a sad way. Filmmakers must know this and understand that an Oscar isn't actually worth all that much, but because "Oh, that's an Oscar-winning film" still has such a positive connotation, they keep clinging to the Academy Awards, going to the ceremony every time they're nominated, laughing awkwardly at the forced jokes with a pained expression on their face like I saw Spike Lee doing last night, hoping they'll receive that validation, that they can say "Look, I'm good at my job, I won an Oscar", even though they know people didn't even watch the movies and voted for them at the last minute because they had black in the title. And next year the cycle begins anew.

Only one I haven't seen was Mirai, so unless it was Mamoru Hosoda's magnum opus, Spiderverse deserved the Oscar. Incredibles 2 was honestly pretty good. Isle of Dogs had some shaky pacing once you get past the visual presentation but certainly wasn't bad.

>see crap coming from a mile away thanks to years of experience
And yet Ralph Breaks the Internet has 88% on RT and Crash 2.0 won best picture.

>Voter #5: I only watch the ones that my kid wants to see, so I didn’t see [The] Boxtrolls but I saw Big Hero 6 and I saw [How to Train Your] Dragon [2]. We both connected to Big Hero 6 — I just found it to be more satisfying. The biggest snub for me was Chris Miller and Phil Lord not getting in for [The] Lego [Movie]. When a movie is that successful and culturally hits all the right chords and does that kind of box-office — for that movie not to be in over these two obscure freakin’ Chinese fuckin’ things that nobody ever freakin’ saw [an apparent reference to the Japanese film The Tale of the Princess Kaguya, as well as the Irish film Song of the Sea]? That is my biggest bitch. Most people didn’t even know what they were! How does that happen? That, to me, is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen.

Strange how it's okay for the Academy to be racist towards Asians.

One thing I will say for the Academy Awards, they conditioned people into thinking it was going to be a catastrophe without a host and turns out it didn't even make a difference really. The host barely does anything anyway. I hope they continue to not bother with a host, it actually shaved like ten minutes off the length of the ceremony.

>Ralph Breaks the Internet has 88% on RT
It has a considerably lower score on Metacritic.

I fucking said in the Oscars threads WEEKS ago that the judge's think animated stuff is for children. Didn't you hear that opening speak? Calling it childish. It got my blood boiling.

Eh, the academy always gets it wrong. Its not all that rage worthy.

Who cares?

Why doesn't Yea Forums big up the Annies more? You don't like or trust the judgment of the mainstream Hollywood dumbasses why not try to increase the prestige of your own industry awards?

>the Annies have separate categories for mainstream and independent movies
I’m not sure if that makes them better or worse than the Oscars.

I didn't realize the childish things quote was from the Bible. I only ever heard it in the context of C.S. Lewis BTFOing people. So apparently this whole time it was a religious guy throwing shade on the Bible. That makes me like his quote even more.

That actually seems like a smart decision to me. Independent films don't have near as much budget, it's not fair to make them compete with mainstream films. Furthermore, it gives exposure to films which never would have been nominated if they were combined into one award.

The problem I see upon looking at what's won the Annies though, is that it is consistently almost always the exact same film that won the Best Animated Feature Oscar. Which makes you wonder again, are they even watching them? Or are they just like the Academy and just voting for whatever their kids tell them to?

Incidentally, I see that Mirai actually won the Independent Annie this year. So that's kind of amusing. The film that the Academy voters didn't even bother watching was considered good enough to win the award.

Because the Oscars has a nice lavish show with plenty of celebrities attending and the Annies who cares.

I like it, it's got that 16 year old circular logic I miss so much.

Is this shocking to anyone? Madoka: Rebellion didn't even get a nomination and Shaft didn't even submit any film in the Kizu trilogy for consideration.

Attached: 1530614925782.jpg (845x466, 76K)

Which is mainly because they get paid an enormous amount to attend. The "swag bag" they get is legendary in its largesse. People wonder "Why do celebrities care so much about winning an Oscar when it doesn't mean a whole lot?" and the answer is because there is literally no downside to them attending the ceremony, they get so much free shit.

The academy awards don't mean anything and anyone who gets upset at them is autistic.

That's Weinstein tier thinking.
>It's only Hollywood, no one is paying attention.

Tell me how they matter, then? Oooh, you get a trophy and people find out about your movie! Wow!

I'm told that when it comes to foreign films it's the country's film organization that gets to decide which are nominated so if they don't like you then you could make the greatest film ever and it won't matter. It famously happened to Park Chan-wook, director of Oldboy.

This happens EVERY YEAR
How could you still be surprised it happens at this point. The academy will NEVER care about animation to the degree you want them to.

They cared the year that Spirited Away won. It's just that they've changed.

To be fair, Rebellion and Kizu both require some background knowledge before jumping into them. Sequels and spinoffs, especially foreign ones that aren't based on a well-known property, have never gelled well with the academy.

...He said in the same year that Incredibles 2, Wreck-It Ralph 2, and Infinity War all received nominations, and Into the Spider-Verse, which expects you to know a fuckton of obscure knowledge about Spider-Man comics, was the fucking winner.

What obscure knowledge did Spider-verse expect you to know before hand?

they all just joined a circle jerk because "Miyazaki' is a recognizable name and because they wanted to be hip with the kids.

Yeah, my casual friend was fine

It's annoying that people don't watch all the nominees and that some worthy movies don't even get nominated in the first place, but Spider-Verse deserved the win

It probably did, but it's clearly one of those situations like Zootopia where the best film of the nominees won by chance instead of by proper recognition of its merit compared to the other nominees.

>Isle of Dogs was a disappointment

i saw Spiderman bootleg and then went to the movies the next day with my bro so i can see it with better quality.

What do you mean "was still disappointed", you watched a highly visual film in poor quality. What's wrong with you?

The guy is an oscar-nominated sound guy that obviously feels he shouldn't be balloted on things he doesn't get.

And the saddest part is despite his very valid points, this was all five years ago and it still hasn't changed. The Academy has no desire to improve itself.

Friendly reminder that the Academy Awards have never been a mark of quality. Their history is RIFE with bullshit like this.

Animation voters generally don't watch all the movies they're voting on. They usually only watch 2 or 3 and vote based on which one their kids liked the best.

Citizen Kane is lauded as one of the greatest movies ever made. The movie that won Best Picture that year is a movie you've never heard of and not Citizen Kane.

There's plenty more stories about technically-not-bribes, movies loosing Best Picture simply because the same genre won that award the previous year and loads of other shenanigans.

same old stuff
done before
just fucking straight up say "didn't watch the weebshit lmao" at that point

And I don't think horror movies have ever been nominated, for another example of Academy weirdness.

Funny that you should mention the Patriots, because they're finding out right now that karma's a bitch.

Why are people pissed about Green Book winning? I know Spike Lee was mad, but he's mad at everything not kissing his ass so his opinion is shit anyways.

Your problem is the problem with the category, the academy considers animation a genre and not a medium and that is bullshit. Anomalasia was up against shaun the sheep, the category us decided by box office and what names are attached to the movie. Animation isn't the only category that suffers from this, look at best foreign language film. A category where the only similarity required between each film is the fact that their not in English. What film won The only movie on the list that was also nominated for best picture

Did spider-verse deserve to win? Probably, it doesn't change the fact that Miles only exist to pander to market forces and not one single ounce of genuine creativity has ever gone into any of his comics or character, but that fact in itself doesn't change the fact that the movie was pretty good.

Basically Green Book is the story of Don Shirley traveling through the South during segregation and creating the "Green Book" a road map to show what locations are safe for Black People while being driven around by his bodyguard Tony Vallelonga. The problem is that the story is told from Tony's perspective so people take this as it being a whitewashed version of the story

It's more that people are sick of seeing a white perspective continuously define and dominate depictions of racism, unless it's a movie about slavery, especially when that pov treats the subject matter with kid gloves. And when you had Blakkklansman competing in the same category for best picture, is it any wonder so many people across the board went "oh wow, really? You're going with the most vanilla version of the topic as possible for best movie?"

Feels like something happened...

There was a lot of stuff going on that made Green Book a really weird choice for best picture. Like for example Nick Vallelonga had made some pretty questionable comments that really put a black mark on the whole thing. Feels like the Academy playing it safe and going with the only thing they can understand, as usual. We've seen the comments from the voters; these are not smart people.

These are the animated movies we’re getting in 2019. What are your predictions for next year’s Oscars?

They seemed pretty pissed that Lego Movie got snubbed so I can see the sequel at least getting a nom to make up for it. Unless Into the Spider-Verse already counted as throwing a bone to Lord and Miller, but then again they just gave Mahershala Ali a second Oscar so you never know.

There's also the fact that apparently Vallelonga and Shirley were never even close to being friends and their relationship was strictly employee and employer.

>Unless Into the Spider-Verse already counted as throwing a bone to Lord and Miller
Doubtful that the Academy cares enough about them to do that, given that people with long histories within Hollywood who have been nominated multiple times STILL can't get a bone thrown to them after decades.

It's just Crash all over again. They want to seem progressive by awarding it to a movie making the bold statement that racism is bad, but want to give it to the blandest, most inoffensive movie to do so.

I appreciated Cuaron taking a shot at the Foreign Language Film category when he won. Some people were hoping he would shit talk the Academy and he didn't disappoint.

Spiderverse was good, eat it feminist/alt-right cucks.

its from a hollywood reporter article

Shrek was extremely popular within Hollywood. The Best Animated Feature category was literally created in 2001 just so Shrek wouldn't win best picture.

It was a good year for foreign animation, but the academy only picked one. The rest was safe, conventional American stuff, except maybe Isle of Dogs.

Scott refused the Oscar nomination for Patton, just as he had done for his 1962 nomination for The Hustler, but won the award anyway.[10]

>In a letter to the Motion Picture Academy, he stated that he did not feel himself to be in competition with other actors. However, regarding this second rejection of the Academy Award, Scott famously said elsewhere, "The whole thing is a goddamn meat parade.

And that same year they nominated JIMMY FUCKING NEUTRON over Waking Life.

How would that break you? It's hardly the dumbest event out there. If anything, it's one of the more fun ones specifically because it was so different.

Why would feminists be mad at Spider-Verse?

Do you just slam words together and hope they make sense?

Anyone else find it weird that some people here are so contrarian that they'll AGREE with the Academy, which is technically not even a contrarian thing to do but it's contrarian to what Yea Forums is saying and that's good enough apparently?

It costs money and is hard to organize because you would have to have as many people as possible for it to be worth it. Sending screeners is way easier and cheaper.

>Most people didn’t even know what they were! How does that happen?

It certainly seems to be the case for most of them. The only one I feel confident is selected mostly honestly is Best Original Song because it's hard not to take a couple minutes and listen to the songs on YouTube or whatever. I would also say that Shallow was indeed the best song of the nominees so they made the correct choice this year.

The /pol/tard NPC is glitching.

I wouldn't call Crash inoffensive.

How many people do you think ponder longer which movie had the best costuming, if there's a historical drama in the category they just can vote for?

Actually as a spokesman for Yea Forums we weren't fine with Ralph winning either.

That movie made me want to fucking throw up. So heavy handed. Everyone got a second chance. Fucking kill me

Don't worry, even those of us on Yea Forums who actually like black people agree with you on this.

You do realize that 90% of the voters never watched any of the movies more than once and therefore are incapable of comparing them meaningfully? It's all a farce.

>NPC calls others NPC
your programming is proceeding as programmed

Fuck Ralph 2. Emoji movie ripoff totally going against the message of the excellent Ralph 1....whose oscar fucking Brave stole, BTW.

I forgot this was a thing
so yeah it was either spiderman or Isle of Dogs and Mirai

>n-no you!
As predicted. You've outed yourself as an NPC in every sense of the word.

>who actually like black people
Your kind is not welcome here.

Saving Private Ryan was frontrunner for 1998(9?). There was a massive campaign by the studio/producers of Shakespeare in Love, essentially sending FYC gift bags, etc. to members of the academy.

Just give it up, /pol/tard. Things are not going your way.

Called you out on it first.

So which one are you? Nigger, tranny, dyke, or just plain native Yea Forums faggot?

You should have seen the voter commentary when Frozen was up for one.

Looks like you're the one outnumbered here. Go to sleep, SoCal fag.

Yikes, you're so desperate that you're actually lying this blatantly. Guess it's finally sunk in that the wall isn't happening.

It's been like fourteen years since I saw it but how is it exactly offensive? Other than being very heavy handed.

Exterminate all niggers

Because it's another blatant racebaiting movie that makes the white race the bad guys and niggers the perfect angels who dindu nuffin

Good grief, the /pol/kid is really sperging out in this thread now.

Clean up this mess before it gets out of hand.

It's offensive to intelligence and people who want to watch good movies on account of being dogshit.

I'm actually pleasantly surprised that some of them saw a couple of the films they were voting on.

>being this triggered when the truth is dropped

Dude can you shut the fuck up for a second, your shitposting is a reportable offense.

Can we just start doxxing the academy people now?

Yea Forums is not your personal army, deal with it

>I don't like who was voted the winner so we should start doxxing the people who did the voting!

Grow the fuck up.

>I love black cock it's so yummy

You are literally the same faggot aren't you?

>a man this based
>autist

I have no doubt that he is. You can see the exact point where the thread went to shit. We were having some pretty good discussion then he started coming in and screeching autistically.

I won't judge you on sexual preference kid, if you like that sort of thing but don't start projecting.

Wanda Sykes is also a comedian so I would take that statement with a grain of salt.

I don't think they get paid

No idea but Funan and Bunuel are the only movies in that lot I'm actually looking forward to. This Magnificent Cake also looks cool though so I might see that too.

I have far less respect for the Academy Awards looking back and knowing what else was released around the world, jesus christ.

ONLY nom for Night is Short is the anime only organization. Fucking shameful.

Spider-verse was a solid win. Better than a disney or pixar sequel, even if they do look visually fantastic. I suppose oscar voters are not provided copies of the films to watch, otherwise they would much less excuse.

mirai is a completely generic and boring film, which is the reason's no one's heard of it. really only got the nomination because they need a token foreign film so the category appears to have some authenticity, and it being a children's movie thats got a dubbing means that some member's grandkids probably got a dvd of it. ruben brandt should have got the nomination, had a snowball's chance in hell next to spiderman, but it being a foreign film thats not for kids and not in the safe and cuddly miyazaki style means it would never of gotten nominated.

Yeah I just don't think it was as good as Fox

awesome quads, but yes, they do get provided copies. Those are what screeners are

I don't see how that's related.

Phoneposting enables consequencefree shitposting since banevading on mobile literally takes 2 swipes and less than 2 minutes of waiting time. It's so simple anyone with two braincells and a dataplan can do it, unlike desktop banevading which actually requires a teensy bit of knowledge and a lot more waiting time.

Welcome to the "Best Animated Feature" category.

every year is a fresh new joy from these blockheads

Fuck off Cosby

I'm gonna go set a Watchmen on your face

Well we're getting missing link this year and we got son of bigfoot recently.

It was shortlisted, but I'm guessing it didn't make it in because of the 360 stuff.

What are those films in the picture?
I recognise the first one but not the others.

>Exorcist was nominated for best picture
Wow, I never knew that.
I wonder if Suspiria should have been given the same treatment.

>who actually like black people
I like those blacks that don't act like niggers. I do like hood movies though.

No, he makes perfect films.

We're done here.

Mirai won the Annie award though. Can't be that bad.

I would’ve nominated Ruben Brandt instead of Ralph Breaks the Internet. They should limit Disney’s participation to just one movie per year.

Do any of them have good waifus? That's what really matters.

I agree. Of course, though, Disney runs the show so that'll never happen.

This website has written angry articles about the Academy Awards every single year. I don't know what they expect to accomplish but I admire their dedication.

Also, man, Japan gets a lot of artsy animated films that nobody ever really talks about because they're busy watching light novel adaptations. Not to say light novel adaptations can't be good but it's the equivalent of exclusively watching Marvel movies and wondering why films are nothing but capes and sequels. You're depriving yourself of the really good stuff and making idiotic assumptions.

AAAAARGH! They make me SO ANGRY!

It's the same people who put up "#oscarsowhite" and claim Oscars are always out of touch. They stil watch the show anyway.

Good post, user.

That users of that site still suck Disney knob 364/365 days of the year. The one day they decide to actually like to talk about other films is the Oscars.

Here’s a list of every animated film submitted to the Oscars:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_submissions_to_the_Academy_Award_for_Best_Animated_Feature

At this point, why even air the ceremony on TV? Last I checked, none of the other award shows do.

Eh? Plenty of them do, just not on a channel everyone has, like ABC.

And if you've attempted to watch ABC at any point like I have, you'd see that they honestly have nothing better to show. The Oscars are actually an improvement over their usual content, believe it or not.

The academy has always been a huge steaming pile of shit in regards to animation.
They're one of the bigger reasons animations is still as pigeonholed into the "JUS 4KIDZ LAWL" meme as it is

As a woman the least you could do is watch that fucking ralph sequel. This is the same shit has gays getting their forced representation and then bitching that they dont like it because the network is just using them. You ruined something good and then you just fucking ignore it and cant even just fucking take what you were given.

Wait, what? Why is it particularly important to watch Ralph 2 "as a woman"?

Watch it.

I intend to but it's going to take probably a couple months before I can get it so I wouldn't mind a brief explanation of what you're talking about.

>i'm a grill
Then follow the rules or fuck off.

Are you literally illiterate?

It was a meta deconstruction about how Disney has wrongfully treated females with their princess lineup or just average tropes. Ralph gets the blunt of pretty much everything. It's genuinely worse than the dated memes.

He read the first 3 words. I don't blame him for at least thinking it was your average Yea Forums femanon self callout post but I mean, read the next words before even responding.

Ah, I see. Well, considering her only explanation for Isle of Dogs is "Isle of Dogs? I didn't like that at all." I have a suspicion that she wouldn't have appreciated Ralph 2 even if she did see it.

No, it has just been a day and a half since I read the OP so of course I don't remember the exact details of it and at a glance, your post could be interpreted as an attempt to regain online girl advantage.

That aside, it is a bit disturbing that you're still posting motivational poster memes in 2019. And the UNIX timestamp on that image is fucking ancient.

Mirai isn't even out in America and I don't see any downloads for it on Nyaa so I'm not even sure how any of you saw this movie. If the voters weren't provided with copies of the films I'm not surprised they didn't see it.

Believe it or not, there are genuine oldfags here. And that was just a random tits or grfo pic from my folder.

Isle of dogs was pretentious hipster shit. I cannot fucking STAND wes anderson's style of directing and how all the dialog sounds in his movies.

this

being pretentious and up it's own ass doesn't automatically mean something is good, Anons

Asians are considered white unless it's more convenient for them to be otherwise.

>PRETENTIOUS!
There's that buzzword from people who can't actually explain what they dislike about something. When I hear the word pretentious it always means "This thing is smarter than I am and that makes me feel insecure so I have to find a way to insult it."

I'M OFF THE DEEP END

Nobody cared for Ralph 2; the only reason it got nominated was b/c there’s a LOT of Disney employees in the Academy who spammed it.

Yeah, I understand that. It happens every year. One time Big Hero 6 even won the fucking Oscar. Big Hero 6. A fucking okay movie, and the Academy says "Yep, that was the best animated film from that year, also I didn't actually see any other animated films that year." I guarantee you The Tale of Princess Kaguya was a better film and I've never even seen it.

That guy is right

>As a woman the least you could do
or maybe- crazy shot in the dark here- I could not base my life around other people's insecurities and watch things I actually like.

>pretentious hipster
wes anderson's films are always about siple themes, typically familial bonds. isle of dogs is just about the relationship between and a boy and dogs and its displayed obviously as absurd and not pretentious. if it was pretensions it would have done a serious haiku in the opening instead of a joke haiku which set the tone for the rest of the movie.

You could certainly do that, ma'am, but you're also not voting for which film deserves a prestigious award. As a member of the Academy the least she could do is watch all the films and make an educated vote.

>Mr. Fox.
>Good.

Isle of Dogs was 10 times better and 1000 times less pretentious.

user the academy gives zero shits about animation.

That could always change if the right person becomes the boss.

Also, who IS the boss of the Academy?

>President – John Bailey
>Short Films and Feature Animation Branch – Bonnie Arnold, Jon Bloom, Tom Sito
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_of_Motion_Picture_Arts_and_Sciences

That just makes it all the more confusing that they treat animation so poorly when they have an actual branch for it.

Feels like if you haven't watched all the nominations then you shouldn't be allowed to vote in that category.

I don't even care if that would effectively get rid of the animation category at the Oscars ((it's a joke anyway)), it's just embarrassing to see these people treat animated media like trash, just leave it to people who actually like animation while the people at the Oscars just change it to 'The Disney Award"

Why the hell was it even nominated if the voters couldn't fucking watch it?

A good question.

Say what you will about the Academy's incredibly stupid disdain for animation, but at least they were smart enough to create a rule that would prevent live action films like Avatar from getting nominated in the category and stealing the thunder of actual animated films.

Still, it shows you how times have changed that there was enough backlash to the Best Popular Film category that they decided not to create it at all. It's too bad Best Animated Feature is too set in stone for there to be such backlash to their handling of it.

They needed a Japanese movie in there to:

1. Seem diverse
2. Avoid complaints for nominating Isle of Dogs (cultural appropriation)

>cultural appropriation
It literally had Japanese actors in it.

There were multiple Fathom Events screenings, I saw it two months ago and I live in bumfuck nowhere Minnesota

>There were multiple Fathom Events screenings, I saw it two months ago and I live in bumfuck nowhere Minnesota
I saw it based on Hosada's previous work, which ranges from good to fantastic. Wolf Children deserved an Oscar. Mirai didn't. Kudos to Spider-Man, which was obviously the best choice, even if the only reason it won was because the Disney vote was split between two sequels.

I wonder if there's a way to see the actual vote tallies. It would be interesting to see how close Spider-Man came to not winning.

I imagine it was a close draw between Spiderverse and Ralph, but even if you didn't watch either movie there was enough trending shit on social media about how great Spiderverse looked that it won out.

That, or the voters kids are growing up a bit and now like the animated movies made for teens/tweens instead of just disney stuff.

Go back to capeshit movies if you can't stand a little different style of directing.

I think anyone who hates Wes Anderson is some idiot from Yea Forums who bought into the memes just because "I enjoy the films of Wes Anderson" has been spammed every day for the past five years. He's honestly one of the greatest American directors of all time.

Into the spiderverse was unironically worst animated movie I've ever seen.
>10 fps
>tumblr plot and art
>shitty animatiion
>shitty designs
>capeshit
I think Oscar is some meme-tier award now? Awarding capeshit instead of an actual movies? I feel bad for people who got this award when it meant something though.

Feel free to name the time when the Oscar actually meant something.

When the film you liked won

Before 2005 Oscar was pretty decent.
After 2005 it started to be shit, still okay sometimes.
After 2011 it's started to be a full political statement award not a real one
After this year it's started to be absolute trash meme award which only purpose is to promote shitty movies for degenerates.

Shakespeare in Love.

Your move.

I said pretty decent, not perfect. There were few meh movies, but most of awarded movies were good/greata. Now situation is reversed: there are few good movies and most of the awards goes to absolute shit.

>I think Oscar is some meme-tier award now?
>Now
Ha ha ha

I think you didn't actually watch the Oscars back then and you have some weird ulterior motive in trying to push the narrative that the Oscars are "only recently bad, they used to mean something." In fact, it's very plausible that Shakespeare in Love came out before you were even born.

Nice projections, but wrong anyway. Name one (1) animated movie which was as shit as into the tumblrverse which got oscar back then.

it was a kino musical

The animated feature category did not exist until 2001, so congratulations on outing yourself as an underage who doesn't actually know anything about the Oscars but hopes that if he speaks confidently, nobody will notice.

>Before 2005 Oscar was pretty decent.
retard

They should strap the Academy reps to chairs a la Clockwork Orange and force them to watch all the movies they're voting for, that way there's no more rigging.

What the fuck, did we even watch the same movie? Sometimes the small things are important and beautiful.

Reminder that this is how the Academy (and Hollywood) treats visual effects artists and technicians who are, at heart, ANIMATORS.
