  • "When did they start respecting animation?" Idk man maybe the video will tell you and you can leave a comment after you've watched it
  • @klutzedufus
    fun fact: chicken run was heavily pushed to be nominated for the best picture, and while it didn’t get the nomination, it’s what made them add the best animated feature category the next year. chicken run walked so shrek could run
  • Animation needs to be accepted as a medium not a genre .
  • After the success of Spiderverse, Phil Lord and Chris Miller were asked over and over by various producers when they were going to make a "serious" movie, as if they hadn't already made one of the best films of the 2010s
  • @moosx
    My dad acts like this. He refuses to watch any animated movie because he has "already watched enough kids movies" in his life
  • @SemiHypercube
    The notion that "all animation is for children" is one of the greatest mistakes the entertainment industry has made
  • @Croutonking65
    I learned that voters for the best animated category doesn’t require them to watch every nominee to vote. That should tell you how much respect the academy has for animated films
  • still can't get over how A silent voice, a beautiful and tearjerking tale about the consequences of bullying and finding redemption lost to a braindead movie about a baby in a tuxedo
  • @verry3413
    As much as I loved puss in boots, I really hope that Pinocchio wins just so that Guillermo can go up there and give his amazing speech about how animation is an art form and needs to be respected as much as the other nominees
  • @malcfoy
    And even if all animation was just made for children, kid's media still deserves recognition. It's so tiring to hear people constantly put down something because it's made for kids, as if adult media isn't just as capable of putting out garbage crap.
  • @silashurd3597
    It’s like Guillermo Del Toro said earlier: “Animation is cinema. Not a genre for kids” I think we all (Especially those idiots from the Oscars) need to see animation like that. The way it’s supposed to be.
  • Funny how I recognize all of these "insignificant" animated movies instantly, yet I barely know any of the best picture nominees. That's how "culturally significant" they were.
  • You know, during the time when the Oscars respected animation, they actually had animated characters be there.
  • Not the first time Guillermo was snubbed for an Oscar. Cronos, his first movie, was proposed for best foreign film and was rejected for nomination. The Oscars hates horror movies with passion, probably more than it does animation.
  • I'm still furious that the year Boss Baby and Ferdinand were nominated for Best Animated Feature, we didn't get a nomination for A Silent Voice. A life-changing movie for so many. Coco won that year, which was acceptable. But its crazy to me that the Animation category ignores anime almost every year.
  • Guillermo went up on stage and said “animation is cinema”. We did it Reddit.
  • @OffbeatAsh
    Just IMAGINE more animated horror films, fantasy adventures, drama etc. instead of cgi and green screens! And giving both voice actors and animators the wage and recognition they deserve!
  • @scenealizer
    The biggest oopsie from the Academy was ignoring The lego Movie for best animated feature for having live actions elements, while giving Wall-E a pass
  • @GOODYGOODGOOD789
    What they're afraid of: vampires: sunlight superman: kryptonite Oscars: animation
