UP For Your Consideration
I loved Pixar’s UP so much. It makes my heart warm to see that this film is campaigning for a spot in the ten Best Picture nominees for this year’s Academy Awards. Variety has the spread below in their daily edition, which has been scanned by the kind folks over at Awards Daily. I personally love the use of these two photos, the first being Carl running up the hill to Ellie, leading to the second where the two of them are pointing out cloud forms. Ah this film just warms my heart. Go ahead, call me a sap. Do it. The film is campaigning for the ambitious Best Picture category and of course, Best Animated Feature. Check out the full quality version over at Awards Daily!
Do you guys think UP will get nominated for Best Picture?
Not only does it deserve a nom, UP and Pixar deserve the win. Wall-e was the highest reviewed movie of 08 and was somehow left out of the nominees for best picture. Pixar got hosed. Once again they have the best reviewed movie of the year, which in my opinion means its the best movie of the year, which is why it deserves Best Picture. I think its time animated films are treated with the same amount of respect as live action films.
