On SR: It's pretty much a shoo-in for a nom in the "Best Visual Effects" category. Mind you, "Dead Man's Chest" will win (I don't see how it couldn't), but SR will get nominated.

Best Song: There was cool song in "Casino Royale". Maybe it'll get a nod.

Monster House will probably get a nom, but I doubt very highly that it will win.

Actually, I think it has a good chance. The fact that it was done in Motion Capture might go against it, though.

I only want Monster House to win because A) it was a great movie, with outstanding visuals and B) its the only movie I've seen out of those mentioned :?

Yeah, Acadamy Awards tend to mimick the Annies a lot. Flushed Away got a bunch of noms, too, although it didn't get one for Best Picture for some reason.

And THAT makes no sense at all.

I mean, did they figure that they gave Aardman so many awards last year that they didn't need to give it a Best Animated Feature nom? Crazy.

I'm glad Ian got a voice acting nom, though. He was great as Toad.

I thought about that, actually.

I'm not trying to be a conspiracy theorist here...:roll:.but I think it has to do with the Aardman-DW split and resentment at DW interference with this film, since there's been all this talk about how DW and Aardman are mad at each other, etc....

He certainly was. :)

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!
