Considering the movies that came out… I’m not surprised

[@kevinr.9733]

It's happened before. Aardman's 2006 win for the Wallace & Gromit movie was followed by Animal Logic/Warner Bros. winning with _Happy Feet_ the following year. And the first two winners were _Shrek_ (DreamWorks) and _Spirited Away_ (Studio Ghibli).

In my opinion, the MOST NEEDED award that they need, is Vocal Performance. In the age we're at in film, this could encapsulate the likes of CGI characters, animated characters, etc. It would allow for more recognition of animation as a medium, and maybe encourage studios to actually hire voices rather than names *cough* Garfield and Mario *cough*

[@BirdsandGhibliFan]

Yes, totally! 👍 After watching Robert Pattinson’s performance as the Heron in “The Boy And The Heron” and even Hailee Steinfeld’s performance as Gwen Stacy in “Across The Spider-Verse”, I felt like they should’ve added a Best Voiceover Performance. Also, I agree with your point that it would incentivize studios to hire veteran voice actors or at least talented enough people to voice act, as well as give veteran voice actors recognition at the Oscars.

[@narwhal6112]

[@FullmoonPhantom-dn2sr]

Pretty much. Though, it’s also because I’m an animation fan. I don’t care enough about film as its own medium to watch the Oscars. Too long and they’d probably pick nothing, but boring movies I’m not a fan of. And make me watch commercials with their show. Even if they happened to nominate a live action I care about or enjoyed, the boring artsy pretentious ones will likely win. Watching the highlights is just so much easier. Although, hearing about some of the highlights that did happen for some of the movies I cared about like Barbie, well, idk, I might have to watch the Oscars one of these years. I’ve watched enough end of year highlight short run throughs for both anime and Oscar animation highlights, I might as well watch the Oscars. If the show is interesting enough anyway. And it’s such a big topic every year even if people insist no one cares.

Also, your hypothetical question for Best Animated Feature is so spot-on. On a side-note, I really like “The Boy And The Heron” and I am glad that it won Best Animated Feature, but even as a big Ghibli/Miyazaki fan myself, I disagree that it’s Miyazaki’s best film since “Spirited Away”. I personally think “Castle In The Sky” is miles better and is criminally underrated in terms of its thematic depth.

They pay teams differently in Japan. Usually actors do not take up 30% or more of the budget.

[@Erick-tv8oq]

Disney overworks and underpays their artists all the damn time while their movies have some of the most ridiculously bloated budgets ever. One thing does not necessarily influence the other. Whether the conditions the artists were submitted to were humane or not hinges almost entirely on how well lead they were. If the VFX artists have a clear vision to follow, enough time to do their job and the right tools in hand, then things can go incredibly smoothly and cost way less than expected for the level of quality the final product presents. I'm not saying that the people who worked on Minus One suffered no abuse whatsoever, I'm saying that equating a lower budget to worse working conditions is both wrong and harmful, because if there was a causation link between both of these aspects then Disney's VFX artists would be the happiest in the industry, when that is clearly not the case. By all means, investigate Minus One's production for signs of crunch and such. Listen to what the people who actually did the job have to say. Just don't make assumptions before that.

To be fair, anthony hopkins won best leading actor for his performance as hanibal lecter in silence of the lambs so lily gladstone could easily qualify for leading actress

[@MAXISORAWIGGLES]

Sure but that was over 30 years ago. There are different voters in the Academy.

[@jazzy4830]

Hannibal was a role that allowed for much greater expression even without the screen time afforded by a bloated movie like KOTFM, it was an electric and instantly memorable performance that people still quote to this day. Spending half a movie playing a more withdrawn character sick in bed doesn't give you much to work with, even if I thought she did a great job. I think a lot of people wanted her to win as the first indigenous American to win best actress, but whether you think that would be a symbol of the racism of low expectations, or degrading the purpose of the Oscars is a more personal matter.

It's so sad that no one talks about documentaries and 20 days in Mariupol. If you haven't seen the acceptance speech, you should watch it, it's very touching. And the audacity that the Oscars cut it out from the broadcast is crazy.

As a Ukrainian, I am extremely disappointed and saddened by the lack of mention of the first Ukrainian Oscar win ever. 20 Days in Mariupol won the Best Documentary Feature Film. This film documents the destruction and death brought by Russia to Ukraine during the Battle of Mariupol. And this win means a lot for our nation in a time when we battle for survival. This victory was cut out of the international short version of the Oscars. Last year, the documentary category wasn't cut from the short version, so this was a deliberate decision this year. Maybe they decided that exposing Russian war crimes would ruin the jolly mood of the ceremony. Who knows, but this feels like a deliberate erasure. Mstyslav Chernov's director acceptance speech was absolutely heartbreaking. He said that he wishes he never had to make this film. The war continues and Ukrainians continue to die each day for the freedom of our country. And it is important to continue talking about this.
