Oscar Nominees: Best Animated Feature

My predictions: 5/5
My ballot: Come back in February!
The nominees: Incredibles 2, Isle of Dogs, Mirai, Ralph Breaks the Internet, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

At least this category was safe from surprise snubs, with the expected list making the cut. Mirai was the most vulnerable, and it’s in, which is great, and I’m breathing a sigh of relief that Ralph Breaks the Internet didn’t get snubbed. Incredibles 2 is the other sequel here, and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse should still be the frontrunner even though Isle of Dogs is the only film in this category with another nomination, for Best Original Score. These are pretty much the only animated films I saw this year, so I’m on board!

My current bet to win: I’m backing Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
