Written and Directed by Andrew Stanton
Featuring the voices of Ben Burtt, John Ratzenberger and Elissa Knight
In the distant future, a small waste collecting robot that slowly begins to become sentient inadvertently embarks on a space journey that will ultimately decide the fate of mankind.
Why It Will Win: Everyone loves it. Critics, kids, adults, bloggers, IMDb assholes..robots love this film. That's surprisingly rare. Also, maybe the Academy would like to nominate an animated film considerably. It would make this movie year interesting and have the Academy be appreciated for actually nominated the best movies, no matter the genre or type. It has a good screenplay, surprisingly great direction and overall is very well-done. You can't argue that...
Why It Will Not Win: It's obvious; it's animated. As in, not real (I guess). Not since 1991 has an animated movie been nominated for Best Picture. Also, acting nominations are really unlikely because 1) it's just voice-overs and 2) it's not that there's too much dialogue and material for the voice-actors. Obvious things hold this film back, but it will still get..
Nominations:
Best Original Screenplay (a very smart screenplay it is)
Best Music, Original Score
Best Sound Editing
Best Sound Mixing
Best Animated Feature Film
The Bottom Line: No, I'm no fun. No Best Picture or Director, but I will give it some techs and a screenplay nod. Your welcome.
