@@kevzsabz8253 I’ve never heard of The Imaginary and as much as I love Mars Express, I don’t think either will get in. The Missing would be an incredible nomination too, but idk if it gets a limited release this year. I think you are spot on with the other nominees, but are completely forgetting that there is a new Wallace & Gromit movie coming out later this year, which if the track record of those films proves anything, it will more than likely be nominated. Thanks for putting more of these on my radar! :)

@@NathanielAhart The Imaginary actually was released earlier this year and received critical acclaim from critics. Most content creators have already reviewed it. I do know about the new Wallace and Gromit but i think it will be released in the last week of December this year i already check its Wikipedia page but we first have to see it when it is released soon. Academy Awards is pretty much limited with their Stop-motion nominees. The last one that we have a triple Stop-motion nominees is 2012 when Paranorman, Frankenweenie and The Pirates The Band of Misfits all got nominated in the Animated Feature categories. And no probs Nathan i'm happy as always to be one of your subscribers.

@@kevzsabz8253 I will say though that every single movie in that franchise was nominated or won the Oscar in their respective category, so I don’t see how it will miss unless it’s really not that great, which I highly doubt. And thanks for letting me know about that movie, I put it on my watchlist! Glad to have you here :)

@@NathanielAhart The first Wallace and Gromit won the Oscars back in 2006 as i remember watching it on Television in HBO Channel when i was in High School and i think i gave it a Full 5 Star rating on my Letterboxd so i think its sequel will have a chance for nominations as you said but there is going to be some heavy competitions in the nominee selections because there are still 3 Animated films from three Animation Studios (Disney, Warner Bros and Skydance) that will be released. No worries Nathan The Imaginary is available on Netflix actually. Happy that you put it in there. I'm gonna support your Channel all the way Nathan. Keep it up always you are an amazing Content creator and a film critic. 💙💙

Just saw this about a few days ago and I like it! It reminded me a lot of The Iron Giant and Wall-E vibes. Lupita Nyong-O is the stand-out here with her amazing vocal performance. Pedro Pascal however is definitely the weakest vocal performer here because I find his voice and character in general very very annoying unfortunately! Overall this a great movie and I do think this will be the front-runner in the upcoming awards season next year!
